Welcome to the End-to-End DevOps Project guide! In this comprehensive project, we will walk through the process of setting up a robust CI/CD infra, DevOps best practices, and security measures. This project aims to provide hands-on experience in automating, configuring and deploying a scalable application environment.
-
This project aims to demonstrate continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) practices using a variety of tools.
-
Then, the goal is to deploy a NodeJs App on Kubernetes Cluster and Automating it with Argo CD and Ansible via Jenkins Pipeline. For this we are using Vagrant to create a base instance called the jenkins server than from this intance we setup pipeline, which build docker image and push it to DockerHub, than setup minikube instance and ArgoCD inside it to deploy the application. We chose Ansible to automate the installation of all tools used in this project.
Tools you must know for a deep understanding of this project, you need basic familiarity with DevOps principles and following tools.
-
Infrastructure: Use Vagrant to set up a simple Infrastructure.
-
Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Use Ansible to automate the installation of all the tools needed for the project.
-
Jenkins Server Configuration: Install and configure essential tools on the Jenkins server, including Jenkins itself, Docker, ansible, Kubectl.
-
Using Docker Dockerfile to build and deploy Docker Image to DockerHub Registry.
-
Jenkins Pipelines: Create Jenkins pipelines for deploying Docker images.
-
Sonarqube Integration: Integrate Sonarqube for code quality analysis in the DevSecOps pipeline.
-
K8s Cluster Deployment: Utilize minikube to create kand managed Kubernetes deployments.
-
ArgoCD Application Deployment: for GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes which automate and manage application deployments and lifecycle.
-
Conclusion and Monitoring: Conclude the project by summarizing key achievements and monitoring the mikube server’s performance using Grafana.
In this project, we will cover the following key aspects:
-
Step 1: → Create Vagrantfile to Setup and deploy a simple Infrastructure(servers).
-
Step 2: → Create Ansible roles to automate the provisioning of our infrastructure: installation and configuration of Jenkins, Docker, minikube and ArgoCD.
-
Step 3: → Set up Jenkins server and install the following plugins : Docker Docker Commons, Docker Pipeline, Docker API, docker-build-step, Sonarqube, NodeJS. - Go to Manage Jenkins > Click on Plugins > avaliable plugins
-
Step 4: → Configure ci-cd pipeline to build and push the image to the registry.
-
Step 5: → Deploy the application with kubernetes configuration files in minikube instance
-
Step 6: → Deploy Application with ArgoCD
To get started with this project, follow these steps:
-
Clone the repository: bash``` git clone https://github.com/mansourka06/devops-project10
-
Set up Jenkins and Minikube instances using Vagrant/ bash``` devops-project10/vagrant vagrant up
-
Ensure you have Ansible installed on your local machine and then run ansible playbook to install Jenkins, Docker, and minikube and ArgoCD on target servers.
-
Access Jenkins UI by navigating to http://VAGRANT-IP-ADDRESS:8080 in your web browser.
-
Configure Jenkins jobs for your CI/CD pipeline to build and push docker images to your repository(DockerHub for this project).
6.Follow Project Completion steps to Start deploying and managing the Nodejs containerized app using Docker, Kubernetes, and Argo-CD.
In Progress...
Let's Enjoy Sharing :)
