Vagrant deployment of Ubuntu Jumpbox VM and a VM with Concourse deployed with docker-compose

Local CI Environment with Vagrant Provisioning

Two options to choose from:

• Concourse CI
• Jenkins

Multi-VM configuration using Vagrant that comprises of the following:

• One jumpbox/development Xenial64 VM with the Cloud Foundry and Concourse FLY CLI's installed
• One VM that installs either Concourse CI using Docker Compose or Jenkins

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

• Virtualbox
• Vagrant

Installing

How to get the environment up and running

Clone this repository to your local machine

git clone https://github.com/jolsenatx/install-concourseci

cd into the cloned repository and vagrant up

vagrant up --provider virtualbox

After the provision is complete, ssh into the jumpbox which will be used to interact with Concourse and Cloud Foundry (if desired)

vagrant ssh jumpbox

Once you've ssh'd into the jumbox VM, you will want to switch to root

Use the Fly CLI to login to the Concourse VM

fly -t tutorial login -c http://192.168.99.101:8080

You will be prompted for a username and password Username:

concourse

Password:

changeme

The last step is to Sync up Fly by running the following command:

fly -t tutorial sync

Parting Thoughts

Thank you to Steven Thellen for writing the script that installs Concourse

Now that you have a working Concourse environment, I highly recommend learning how to fly with Concourse by following the Flight School tutorial.

Also, You are probably wondering why not just use the official Concourse Vagrant box?

1. Because that would have been too easy
2. I plan on expanding this project to include additional tools and capabilities to help better understand the CI/CD methodologies locally.
