What is it? Continuous Integration

Project started by Kohsuke Kawaguchi Integration Principles Single Repository Performance Visibility Unified UI to manage builds

Why would I want it, or anything like it? ● $> whoami ● Automating build related functions ● Integrated Information

$> whoami Software Projects Open source Commercial Otherwise Distributions Package Maintainers

$> whoami Skill level needed n00bs to L33t haxor to professionals

Automating build related process Get latest code Build it Package it Deploy it Test and analyze it

Integrated Information Comments on commits Links to the related bugs/tickets Source code changes Trends – Graphed build time – Weather forecast of build stability History – Statistics – Console output – Build artifacts

How do I get it started? Quickly :) $> wget $> java -jar hudson.war [--help] [--daemon] $> firefox

How do I get it started? Quickly :) $> wget $> java -jar hudson.war [--help] [--daemon] $> firefox Start playing first, then customize to meet your needs

How do I get it started? Standalone (default port 8080) as a limited user as an init daemon java applet within an servlet engine like apache-tomcat

Source code integration svn cvs local file system or install plugins (git, perforce, bzr, etc.)

Build Steps Shell ( sha-bang if you want ) apache-ant targets maven targets windows batch or install plugins (rake, python, scons, etc.)

Options Scheduling Publishing of Artifacts Maven plugins ● SCP ● FTP Build order Package chains Testing sequences

Can it whistle while it twurks? Distributed Builds Extendability Multiple Build Environments Integration

Distributed Builds Multiple Nodes – Platform Independent Slaves – PXE boot – Virtual machines distcc icecream

Extendability 240+ plugins point and click ready and super API's to write your own

Multiple Build Environments ● Globally available build tools ● Job level environments

Integration IDE (netbeans, eclipse) Bug tracking Bugzilla (default) Pluginable ● Jira ● Redmine ● Mantis ● trac

WORK IT! Architecture Notifications Rights and Access

Architecture Single machine or many Scalable on servers, but easy to repurpose unused machines

Talk to me RSS twitter IRC Jabber

Rights and Access Open (no users) LDAP Unix users/groups Plugins for ActiveDirectory Mysql database of users

Rights and Access Everyone can do everything Only logged users can manage Matrices of rights (Global or Project)

Recap ● What is it? ● Why would I want it, or anything like it? ● How do I get it going? ● Can it whistle while it twurks? ● WORK IT!
