Creating a Kubernetes Cluster with Jenkins X And Importing App

You know what to do; create a new Jenkins X cluster unless you kept the one from before.

🔍 All the commands from this chapter are available in the 07-dev.sh Gist.

Create a new cluster and install Jenkins X#

For your convenience, the Gists from the previous chapter are available below as well.

GKE#

EKS#

AKS#

Install Jenkins X in an existing serverless cluster#

Use an existing serverless cluster: install-serverless.sh

Before we get started#

We’ll continue using the go-demo-6 application. Please enter the local copy of the repository, unless you’re there already.

🔍 The commands that follow will reset your master branch with the contents of the buildpack branch that contains all the changes we did so far. Please execute them only if you are unsure whether you did all the exercises correctly.

If you restored the branch, the chances are that there is a reference to my user (vfarcic). We’ll change that to Google project since that’s what is the expected location of container images.

⚠️ Please execute the commands that follow only if you are using GKE and if you ever restored a branch at the beginning of a chapter (like in the snippet above).

🔍 If you destroyed the cluster at the end of the previous chapter, we’ll need to import the go-demo-6 application again. Please execute the commands that follow only if you created a new cluster specifically for the exercises from this chapter.

Please wait until the activity of the application shows that all the steps were executed successfully, and stop the watcher by pressing ctrl+c.

Now we can explore how to leverage Jenkins X for our development environments.
