A simple GoCD demo environment using docker-compose & yaml pipeline as code

GoCD Infrastructure as Code

a simple GoCD demo environment that completely provisions itself and adds build pipelines (as code), e.g. as a YAML config, via the REST API / an external tool (gomatic) / through an XML config file.

→ Blog: Self-contained GoCD Environment Using Docker-Compose

the versions

• gomatic - a server and an agent container as they are out of the box + a gomatic script to provision the server (needs fixing for the current GoCD version)
• static_config - 2 different agents, server provisioned via a static config file copie into the container
• provisioned_externally - 2 different agents, server provisioned externally via the API

summary of the provisioned version

the startup sequence:

• the GoCD server starts
• two different agents start
• agents wait to connect to the server
• the provisioner waits some, and adds the pipelines to the config
• the server picks up the config and starts the builds

up and running

in static_config, run:

docker-compose up -d

troubleshooting

• see the console output of the containers
• In case you mount folders instead of copying them, note, on some platforms Docker fails to mount local folders. In this case, use node-docker-share!

access the instance

• http://[go-server-ip]:8153

shutdown

docker-compose stop

or destroy via:

docker-compose down --remove-orphans

gocd_docker_compose_example's Issues

Docker-compose doesn't mount volumes on windows

when using Docker Toolbox

Move from volumes to copy

Unable to docker-compose up

I get the following error:

Pulling goagent_java (gocd/gocd-agent-ubuntu-16.04:latest)...
ERROR: manifest for gocd/gocd-agent-ubuntu-16.04:latest not found

copy instead of volume mounting in provisioned_externally
