        nginx-runtime-build.json        // nginx-runtime build to be added to tools
    yarn-builder/
        yarn-builder-build.json         // yarn-builder build to be added to tools

Pipeline

Policies

The project policies only need to be setup once.

Use initOSProjects.sh to setup the initial project policies on all of your projects at once.

The frontend-build.json defines a build configuration for a Jenkins Pipeline which uses the (jenkinsfile)[../Jenkinsfile] in the root of the repository. This file defines our declarative pipeline, currently this is how the pipeline is structured:

• Assemble Runtime and Builder images
• ⬇
• Build Application Artifacts
• Combine Artifacts with Runtime
• ⬇
• Tag the Image as dev
• Verify deployment in dev project
• Wait for approval ⏱
• ⬇
• Tag the Image as test
• Verify deployment in test project
• Wait for approval ⏱ to tag for prod
• ⬇
• Tag the Image as prod

Publishing your Build and Deployment Configurations

Use genParams.sh to setup your parameters for your various environments.

Use genBuilds.sh to publish or update your build configurations.

Use genDepls.sh to publish or update your deployment configurations.
