Stages Explained

Added CI Pipeline for Build, Test and create docker image and deploying to ECS

Build: Creates package and stores the artifact

Test: Dummy stage with junit plugin, but doesnt run as there is no test cases

Docker: Creates a docker image with base image thothbot/alpine-jre8, so docker might fail to run, so added the pripety file to run maven in jre 1.8. And pushed the image to the dockerub

Deploy To ECS: Dummy stage just prints output

Pipeline triggers on push of any commits to Master branch.

Task 3:

To remove existing container and rerun with new image use the container-test.sh script. Can be exectued in linux machines. Pass the $container_name as argument along with this script ./container-test.sh container-name

Task 4:

Added jib plugin directly to pom file. This plugin helps us to build docker image and push it to reponsitory without the need of dockerfile or daemon. Pre-Requiste: Need to authenticate docker login or cred-helper from the machine this commnad is running. Run:

"mvn compile jib:build"
