Welcome to the Jenkins GitOps Docker repository! This repository contains the Dockerfile, Jenkinsfile, and application code necessary for building and deploying a Flask application using Jenkins in a GitOps workflow.
In this repository, you'll find the following files:
Dockerfile: Defines the Docker image for the Flask application.Jenkinsfile: Defines the Jenkins pipeline stages for building, testing, and pushing the Docker image.app.py: Contains the code for a simple Flask application.requirements.txt: Specifies the Python dependencies required by the Flask application.
To get started with building and deploying the Flask application using Jenkins and Docker, follow these steps:
-
Clone the Repository: Clone this repository to your local machine.
-
Configure Jenkins: Set up Jenkins to trigger pipelines based on changes to this repository. Ensure that Jenkins is installed and configured properly.
-
Configure Docker Hub Credentials: Add your Docker Hub credentials to Jenkins to allow pushing the Docker image to Docker Hub. Refer to Jenkins documentation for instructions on adding credentials.
-
Update Jenkins Pipeline: Customize the Jenkinsfile if necessary to match your Jenkins configuration and requirements.
-
Commit Changes: Once you've configured Jenkins and updated the pipeline, commit the changes to this repository.
-
Monitor Build: Jenkins will automatically detect changes in this repository and trigger pipeline jobs to build and push the Docker image. Monitor the pipeline execution and Docker image build status in Jenkins.
