Installation

First of all, you must create a slave on your Jenkins and set to Launch agent via Java Web Start. After that you'll get your secret ID which you have to expose to container via ENV

Clone this repo

git clone https://github.com/Sudokamikaze/Slave.git

Ansible

Automated

Just run make in root directory of the project

Manual

Run this command and answer some questions before we can start

ansible-playbook \
    playbooks/inventory_gen.yml

After that, execute main playbook by running this command:

ansible-playbook \
    --ask-become-pass \
    playbooks/slave_deploy.yml

By the hands

There're some ENVs which have to be corrected:

ENV	Description
Jenkins_Secret=	You'll find your unique ID in Jenkins slave creation menu
Jenkins_Node_Name=	Name that you'll set in Jenkins slave creation menu
Jenkins_Master_IP=	IP of your main node Jenkins
Jenkins_Master_Port	Port of it

When you acknowledged with this information let's begin building

Run docker build

    docker build \
    --no-cache \
    --build-arg Jenkins_Secret="Your_Secret here" \
    --build-arg Jenkins_Node_Name="Your node name here" \
    --build-arg Jenkins_Master_IP="Your Master Jenkins ip here" \
    --build-arg Jenkins_Master_Port="Your Master Jenkins port here" \
    -t slave:latest .

DO NOT FORGET THE `.` 

Create volume for projects data

docker volume create slave_data

Issue run command

   docker run -d -v \
   slave_data:/home/jenkins \
   --name=Jenkins_slave \
   --restart=always \
   --network=pipe-to-slave \ # NOTE, THAT STEP IS OPTIONAL
   -e Jenkins_Secret="YOUR_ID" \
   -e Jenkins_Node_Name="YOUR NODE'S NAME" \
   -e Jenkins_Master_IP="YOUR JENKINS' IP" \
   -e Jenkins_Master_Port="YOUR JENKINS' PORT" \
   slave:latest

That's it! You've made it!
