Run Jenkins in Slave Master Config in Docker

In this video we explore the customizations available in the appcontainers/jenkins docker container image. This container is set to allow you to run the jenkins application in various modes, to allow for maximum customization. Run jenkins in a Docker container the way you want to run it..

More information such as the steps performed in this demo can be found on the appcontainers website:

Docker Container Info:
---------------------------------------
Container OS: CentOS 6.6
Application: Jenkins
Customizable: Customizable Environment Variables.

In this demo, the appcontainers/jenkins container is shown. This container is a CentOS 6.6 Jenkins container that is fully customizable allowing variables all to be set at run time, causing the container to configure itself upon initial deployment.

This demo is a full length demo covering how the container was constructed as well as multiple deployment scenarios.

Hello, this site is unavailable is there a way to get those informations

[zonk]

Please update git in the container image.  It isn't even compatible with the git plugin for jenkins.

Why is your site going down saying "Error establishing a database connection" ?

I followed your video and got very accurate and helpful. After all set up when I run a simple command in pipeline script as node('docker'){
sh 'docker --version'
}


where 'docker' is the label of my docker-slave and docker plugin is installed in jenkins too.

Please guide me here

Hi. I am new to this docker and jenkins world, could you please give some help? when I type:
docker run -it \
--name jenkins-keys \
-h jenkins-keys \
-v /var/lib/jenkins_slave_key \
-e ROLE slave \
-e TERMTAG "JKEY-DATA" \
appcontainers/jenkins \
sleep 1

i got output:
Unable to find image 'slave:latest' locally
docker: Error response from daemon: repository slave not found: does not exist or no pull access.
See 'docker run --help'.


I thought we just this containers to hold keys. Why it complains "docker pulling"? Thank you!
