CI/CD as code with Jenkins Pipelines w/ Ethan Rogers
Description:
Building out complex CI/CD pipelines can be difficult. Things can get even more complicated as the number of projects you have to manage increases. Storing your build, test and deployment steps right along side your code make it easy change these steps as your codebase grows. Jenkins Pipelines (bundled in Jenkins 2.0) gives users the ability to define expressive build & deployment flows that are checked in right alongside the projects they're meant to automate.
In this talk we'll go over how to setup/configure jobs with the Job DSL plugin, how to attach extra compute power to your Jenkins cluster with the Swarm Slave plugin, and how to configure Node and Docker based builds with code.
Bio:
Build & Release Engineer at Skuid. Currently manage our Jenkins cluster as well as build and deployment pipelines for both NodeJS and Salesforce projects. I've used Gitlab CI, Bamboo and Jenkins professionally for the past 2 years and tried many other solutions. I love automation and getting code from development to production with as little involvement as possible!
