• Part-1: Step-by-Step Guide to Setting Up Jenkins on Docker with Docker Agent-Based Builds

Jenkins Docker Setup

This repository provides Docker resources for setting up Jenkins using Docker. It includes a Dockerfile and a docker-compose.yml file to simplify the process of running Jenkins in a containerized environment.

Getting Started

Follow these steps to get Jenkins up and running using Docker:

Prerequisites

• Ensure that Docker is installed on your machine. If not, you can download and install Docker from Docker's official website.

Usage

1. Clone this repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/aburaihan-dev/jenkins-in-docker.git
   cd jenkins-docker-setup
   

2. Build the Jenkins Docker image:

   docker build -t jenkins-docker .

3. Start Jenkins using Docker Compose:

   docker-compose up -d

4. Access Jenkins in your browser by navigating to http://localhost:8080. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.

Generate SSH-key for connecting with Jenkins Agent via SSH

export AGENT_SSH_DIR="jenkins-agent-ssh-key" && mkdir -p ${AGENT_SSH_DIR} && ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -f ./${AGENT_SSH_DIR}/id_rsa

Customization

You can customize the Jenkins configuration by modifying the docker-compose.yml file or the Dockerfile based on your specific requirements.
