i have a Maven project on my local machine and a docker image in my repo and im using gitlab and jenkins to automate builds, and now with current setup I want to continously deploy to Kubernetes. I have no idea on how this is done. Any input will be appreciated.
my yaml file looks like this
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: client-pod
labels:
component: web
spec:
containers:
- name: client
image: <image>
ports:
- containerPort: 3000The easiest way will be to set the name of the new image. See here:
kubectl --record deployment.apps/nginx-deployment set image deployment.v1.apps/nginx-deployment nginx=nginx:1.9.1You will need to have access from your gitlab/Jenkins to your cluster.
Another option will be to use some kind of kubernetes deployment tool such as helm, or any other solution. This case will help you in more complicated scenarios where you also want to update your configuration files (k8s yamls).
Once the image is built and pushed to the container repository you just have to set the new image
>>> docker build -t repo-name/whatever-app:<version>
>>> docker push repo-name/whatever-app:<version>
>>> kubectl set image deployment/my-deployment mycontainer=repo-name/whatever-app:<version>You can use this exemplary jenkins pipeline, to build and deploy your dockerized maven-app to Kubernetes with helm. It consists of following steps:
It think it's a nice starting point to realize CI/CD with Jenkins & Kubernets.
