Creating pipelines as code is one of the biggest additions to Jenkins in recent years. See how Jenkins pipelines define stages and allow easy debugging with the pipeline view and the console.
- [Instructor] A pipeline shows how a job progresses…from input to output and defines all…the steps from start to finish.…Developers use pipelines for building, testing…and deploying software applications.…Data scientists have data pipelines that extract,…transform and load data from one location to another.…System administrators use pipelines for patching.…First checking for updates.…Testing patches in the development environment.…And then applying patches in a production environment.…The best way to get introduced to using pipelines…in Jenkins is to use one of the included examples.…
Before we start though, we need to configure a tool, Maven.…From the dashboard, click manage Jenkins.…Global tool configuration.…And then scroll down to the Maven section.…Click add Maven and enter the name M3.…We need to use M3 specifically to match the definition…in the example that we're going to use.…Now click save.…Click new item.…And enter the name first pipeline.…
Now select pipeline.…And click okay.…Scroll down to the pipeline section.…

4/17/2018First, learn how to set up Jenkins on Mac, Windows, Linux, or inside a Docker container, and find out how Jenkins plugins are used to extend its functionality. Next, configure your first job step by step, leading up to the requisite "Hello, World" output, and learn to make your jobs more useful and portable with parameters. Then explore job scheduling, and Jenkins's convenient aliases for running jobs at regular intervals. The course wraps up with tips for organizing jobs in folders and views and a brief look into pipelines as code-which enable you to execute a series of jobs in stages.
By the end of the training, you should be able to install Jenkins locally or on a virtual machine, create a Jenkins jobs that can be triggered manually or on a schedule, and install and configure plugins to extend the Jenkins framework.
