We will learn how to automate Docker builds using Jenkins. We will use
Python based application. I have already created a repo with source code
+ Dockerfile. We will see how to create Docker image and upload into AWS ECR successfully. We will not be using AWS access keys to upload image into ECR, we will be using IAM role and attach to Jenkins instance to access ECR.
- Automating Docker image builds
- Automating Docker image upload into AWS ECR
- Automating Docker container provisioning
Watch here for YouTube channel:
Pre-requisites:
1. Jenkins is up and running
2. Docker installed on Jenkins instance. Click here to for integrating Docker and Jenkins
3. Docker and Docker pipelines plug-in are installed
4. Repo created in ECR, Click here to know how to do that.
5. Make sure port 8096 is opened up in firewall rules.
6. Create an IAM role with
7. Make sure AWS cli is installed in Jenkins instance.
Step # 1 - Create a pipeline in Jenkins, name can be anything
Step # 2 - Copy the pipeline code from below
Make sure you change red highlighted values below:
Your account_d should be updated and repo should be updated.
pipeline {
agent any
environment {
registry = "acct_id.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/your_ecr_repo"
}
stages {
stage('Cloning Git') {
steps {
checkout([$class: 'GitSCM', branches: [[name: '*/master']], doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false, extensions: [], submoduleCfg: [], userRemoteConfigs: [[credentialsId: '', url: 'https://github.com/akannan1087/myPythonDockerRepo']]])
}
}
// Building Docker images
stage('Building image') {
steps{
script {
dockerImage = docker.build registry
}
}
}
// Uploading Docker images into AWS ECR
Code for this video is here:
Make sure you fork my repo https://github.com/akannan1087/myPythonDockerRepo
and make changes in the pipeline accordingly.
Step # 2 - Copy the pipeline code from below
Make sure you change red highlighted values below:
Your account_d should be updated and repo should be updated.
pipeline {
agent any
environment {
registry = "acct_id.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/your_ecr_repo"

}
}
}
// Stopping Docker containers for cleaner Docker run
stage('stop previous containers') {

sh 'docker container ls -a -fname=mypythonContainer -q | xargs -r docker container rm'

Step # 3 - Click on Build - Build the pipeline
Once you create the pipeline and changes values per your ECR account ID, click on Build now.
Steps # 4 - Check Docker images are uploaded into ECR
Login to ECR, click on your repo, now you should see the image got uploaded.
Steps # 5 - Access PythonApp in the browser which is running inside docker container
Once build is successful, go to browser and enter http://public_dns_name:8096
