Chef integration with Jenkins

Chef Continuous integration with Jenkins 

We are going to setup with below diagram. 




From workstation we are writing cookbooks and uploading them to chef server. Now every change in cookbook we need to upload these changes manually to chef server.  

If we want to make it automated then we can use CI/CD tools like Jenkins and bamboo server. Here we are going to see Jenkins integration with chef server. 

We are going to install Jenkins on workstation. Jenkins will check for the new codes from git and upload them to chef-server and after that we can execute the chef-client on chef client server. 

we can follow Jenkins server installation on below url:  https://tinyurl.com/y8znswrn

Get login into console of Jenkins server and start creating project.

Step 1: Get started creating of free style project.



Step 2:  We need to choose git and paste the master repo path from where we want to get the codes.


Step 3:  Here we can specify poll for SCM.


Step 4: We can write bash command to execute on poll execution.


Step 5: We check the console output after click on console.


Step 6: Finally chef-client successfully executed on remote machine.


Step 7:  We can check the git contents on workstation machine.


Conclusion: Once we commit the changes in git repository, then Jenkins will pull the changes from master repo to workstation machine and execute the commands.

LINUX CONTAINERS

LINUX CONTAINERS What is Linux Container:  Linux containers have different approach than the Virtualization technology. Simply we can say this is OS level Virtualization, which means all containers run on top of one linux operating system.  We can start containers on a hardware running machine or inside of running virtual machine. Each container run's as a fully isolated operating sysem. In container virtualization rather than having an entire Operating System guest OS, containers isolate the guest but do not virtualize the hardware. For running containers one needs a patched kernel and user tools, the kernel provides process isolation and performs resource management. Thus all containers are running under the same kernel but they still have their own file system, processes, memory etc. Linux based containers mainly involved with two concepts: 1. Namespaces 2. Cgroups ( Controll Groups) There are total 6 types of Namespaces: 1. PID Na...

Setting up DNS service Add-On in kubernetes

Setting up DNS service Add-On in kubernetes What things get DNS names? Every Service defined in the cluster (including the DNS server itself) is assigned a DNS name. By default, a client Pod’s DNS search list will include the Pod’s own namespace and the cluster’s default domain. This is best illustrated by example: Assume a Service named “ my-service ” in the Kubernetes namespace “ dev ” . A Pod running in namespace “ dev ” can look up this service by simply doing a DNS query for “ my-service ” . A Pod running in namespace can look up this service by doing a DNS query for my-service.dev . Kubernetes offers a cluster addon for DNS service discovery, which most environments enable by default. “SkyDNS” seems to be the standard DNS server of choice, since it was designed to work on top of etcd. The “ kube-dns” addon is composed of a kubernetes service which, like all services, is allocated an arbitrary VIP within the preconfigured subnet (this is the IP that every other serv...

How to access ssh terminal in web browser on Linux

How to access ssh terminal in web browser on linux Running “everything” in a web browser used to be a bold statement. However, due to the powerful HTML5/JavaScript stack, a web browser increasingly becomes a dominant application delivery platform. In this tutorial, we will looking that, how to access an SSH terminal in a web browser on Linux. Web-based SSH is useful when the firewall you are behind is so restrictive that only HTTP(s) traffic can get through. Or in case when we don't have ssh access client tools(putty, ssh-client) Shell In A Box ( or shellinabox) is a web-based terminal emulator, Which can run as a web-based SSH client. It comes with its own web server (shellinaboxd) which exports a command line shell to a web-based terminal emulator via AJAX interface. Shell In a Box only needs JavaScript/CSS support from a web browser, and does not require any additional browser plugin.   ############# #####Install shellinabox on Linux################# To install shellinabox ...
