Great video! Just curious, I noticed he said you need an agent with Docker installed on it. Currently, I am actually running Jenkins as a Docker image. Are there any examples of how to build a docker image INSIDE a docker container?

No information how to create and setup jobs or pipelines in Jenkins for run Jenkinsfile

this is nice, but useless for production. what is the point to run application on docker agent's host?

[dimasveliz]

this video is beyond awesome, for real! Thank you so much for the simplicity and clarity! One day this effort you're making will pay off!

Thank you for the video.

sh does not seem to work for me on Windows 10 so I tried bat, but do I still need to install docker ?

I'm asking because I'm getting unrecognised command. In other words, how will Jenkins execute docker buid, docker run, etc. ?

Seriously? Use bash commands to run docker containers with jenkins? How do I pass a variable as a tag? How do I version images? How do I push an image to the repository? Bash again? No thanks, Ansible has much better tools for this sort of thing.
