Good Evening Jenkins users,
I have been trying to get my head around jenkins, and so far to sum up in a
sentence, ¨It helps to do repetitive stuff like builds and updating code on
websites¨
I'm hoping that the later is possible, because Ive just witnessed someone
do the thing by hand, and my first thought was - hell no! I'm learning
jenkins!
A quick read over the home page showed various plugins - rundeck, gitlab,
both of which we use, so I'm really hoping that I can glue this lot
together, so that when a dev pushes his work to the repo,
five minutes later, the new website is displaying all his mistakes in HD on
a nice test URL. I have a feeling that jenkins can help me here - im all
ears at the moment, i will really appreciate some advice.
Right now, im spinning up a VM to practice getting my jenkins install going
- and hopefully, i should be able to start to automate most of my day.
Thanks
