Example Pipeline for CI/CD using Jenkins and Artifactory

Command to test npm package:

• Set npm command line client to work with Artifactory Npm Registry.
  create .npmrc file and paste following content to it:

  registry = https://$ARTIFACTORY_URL/api/npm/$ARTIFACTORY_NPM_REPO_NAME/
  _auth = $ARTIFACTORY_USER:$ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD
  email = youremail@email.com
  always-auth = true
  
  

• Install dependencies: npm install
  
• Start node Server: npm start
  
• Access Application on: http://localhost:3000

Command to build docker image and push it to Artifactory:

• Build docker image: docker build -t $DOCKER_REGISTRY/node-version .
  
• Run docker container: docker run -d -p 3000:3000 $DOCKER_REGISTRY/node-version
  
• Login to Artifactory docker registry: docker login -u ARTIFACTORY_USER -p $ARTIFACTORY_PASSWORD $DOCKER_REGISTRY
  
• Push docker image: docker push $DOCKER_REGISTRY/node-version

Steps to create Jenkins Pipeline to build and push docker image to Artifactory:

Note: List of required Jenkins plugins

• Artifactory Plugin
• Docker Pipeline Plugin
• GitHub plugin
• Pipeline Github Plugin
• Pipeline Plugin

1. On the Jenkins front page, click on Credentials -> System -> Global credentials -> Add Credentials

2. Add your Artifactory credentials as the type Username with password, with the ID artifactory-credentials

3. Add String Parameters:

   • ART_SERVER_URL : Artifactory Server URL
     e.g ART_SERVER_URL : https://jfrogtraining.jfrog.io/jfrogtraining
   • ART_DOCKER_REGISTRY -> Artifactory Docker Registry name
     e.g. ART_DOCKER_REGISTRY -> jfrogtraining-docker-dev.jfrog.io
   • CREDENTIAL_ID : Artifactory Credentials Id created in 4th step
     e.g. CREDENTIAL_ID -> artifactory-credentials

4. Create new Jenkins Pipeline Job.

5. Copy Jenkinsfile to Pipeline Script.

6. To build it, press Build Now. After a few minutes you should see an image appear in your Artifactory repository, and something like this on the page of your new Jenkins job:

7. Check your newly published docker image in Artifactory.

Steps to create Jenkins Pipeline to deploy docker image to kubernetes cluster using helm chart:
