# Day 13: Continuous Integration(CI) Setup

* **Learn**: Install Jenkins (docker run -p 8080:8080 jenkins/jenkins), create pipelines.
* **Task**: Set up Jenkins, create a pipeline to build the User Service (Maven).

### Daily Tasks : 

* Jira update
* jenkins setup via Docker
* Setting up CI pipeline

Since, I am using jenkins inside a docker, i am facing some issues with the setup. Hence, started github actions and able to setup CI pipeline successfully.

### setting up Jenkins via Docker

* Run jenkins as a docker container with below command

```
docker run -d \
  --name jenkins \
  -p 8082:8080 \
  -v jenkins_home:/var/jenkins_home \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  jenkins/jenkins:lts
```

* we can get initial password to login to the jenkins via below command

`docker exec jenkins cat /var/jenkins_home/secrets/initialAdminPassword`  --> To get initial password of jenkins

* we can access jenkins at  \`<http://localhost:8082>\`&#x20;
* we can choose install suggested plugins option
* username 'admin' password \<whatever we got from above command\` and email \<our-choice>
* save and finish

Configure Github with jenkins

* Go to settings of your github account and generate PAT(personal access token) .
* Install github integration plugin in jenkins
* Go to Manage Jenkins > Configure System > GitHub Servers.
* Add GitHub Server:

  * Name: GitHub
  * API URL: <https://api.github.com>
  * Credentials: Add > Jenkins
    * Kind: Secret text
    * Secret: Paste GitHub token
    * ID: github-token
    * Description: GitHub Token for Ecomm
    * Test connection (Should succeed)

Here you are supposed to see nodejs, if you are not able to see then it means we need to install that particular software/package as a plugin then u can able to see this option here.
