5 Step CI/CD In Kubernetes using Artifactory, Jenkins & Helm

Contents

Prerequisites

Setup Kubernetes Cluster on EKS

Follow this to setup kubernetes cluster on EKS. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/create-cluster.html

Setup Kubernetes Cluster on GKE

Follow this to setup kubernetes cluster on GKE. https://cloud.google.com/container-engine/docs/quickstart

Setup Kubernetes Cluster on AKS

Follow this to setup kubernetes cluster on AKS. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/tutorial-kubernetes-deploy-cluster

Install Artifactory on kubernetes

Here is documentation to install JFrog Artifactory on kubernetes artifactory-docker-examples
Here is link to official helm chart for Artifactory https://github.com/kubernetes/charts/tree/master/stable/artifactory

Note If you are using Artifactory SaaS you can skip this step.

Configure docker insecure registry in each node of kubernetes cluster if you are using self-signed certificate.

  • Get cluster ip of nginx services by running following command:

    kubectl get services nginx-kubernetes-service
    
  • Ssh into each node of cluster and configure insecure registry using steps provided here

    Note: configure range which include $CLUSTER_IP as insecure registry.

  • Add following entry in /etc/hosts file:

    $CLUSTER_IP     docker.artifactory docker-remote.artifactory docker-local.artifactory
    
  • Pull node docker image from artifactory by running following command:

    docker pull docker.artifactory/node
    

Install Jenkins on kubernetes

Use Helm Chart to install jenkins in kubernetes.
Note: Make sure to increase resources for Jenkins deployment in values.yaml file. Jenkins comes with the Kubernetes plugin..
Cache docker images of jenkins master and agent in Artifactory by changing value of Master.Image to docker.artifactory/jenkinsci/jenkins and Agent.Image to docker.artifactory/jenkinsci/jnlp-slave in values.yaml file.

Configuring Jenkins to build docker images:

  • From Jenkins home click on Manage Jenkins -> Configure System.
  • You will see section Cloud -> Kubernetes -> Images -> Volumes.
  • Click on Add Volume and add Host Path Volume with following mount path: configure_docker
  • ssh into each kubernetes node of your cluster and perform following:
    1. Create jenkins user.
    2. Add jenkins user to docker group.
    3. Make sure jenkins user can access /var/run/docker.sock and /usr/bin/docker in each kubernetes node.
    4. Create test job in Jenkins and run docker version command from test job.

5 Step CI/CD

Step 1. Create an application war file

  • Creates a sample application called ‘webservice-1.1.2.war’
  • Pushes it to a local repository in Artifactory
  • gradle-example

Step 2. Create a template Docker image

  • Creates a base Docker image called ‘docker-framework’ using Ubuntu + Java + Tomcat
  • Pushes it to a local repository in Artifactory
  • docker-framework

Step 3. Create a product Docker image

  • Downloads, from Artifactory, the ‘webservice-1.1.2.war’ file and the ‘docker-framework’ Docker image, that were created in the previous two pipelines
  • Creates a ‘docker-app’ production Docker image
  • Pushes it to Artifactory
  • Promotes it to a production repository in Artifactory
  • docker-app

Step 4. Create Helm chart of product Docker image

  • Create helm chart of docker-app
  • Push helm chart in local helm repository in Artifactory
  • chart

Step 5. Deploy docker-app in Kubernetes cluster using helm chart

  • Pull helm chart from Virtual helm repository of Artifactory
  • Deploy docker-app in Kubernetes using downloaded helm chart
  • deploy
