Description

Adam and JJ play around with the happy path Screwdriver.cd

A

Hello, adam, hey jj, how.

B

You doing, sir, I'm very good thanks. How are you doing.

A

Well, you know it could be better, could be worse, it's uh today's thursday, not tuesday. So this is a little weird gotta admit.

B

A

It's a special.

B

Occasion, it's gonna be a great scream.

A

There you go, I like your attitude, that's good good stuff, that's good stuff, um but yes, hi, uh I'm jj asgar! I'm a developer advocate for the ibm cloud uh cd ambassador now and who are you.

B

Yep, adam roberts, I'm also a cdf ambassador. I work on ibm projects of various kinds, most good open shift and keeping it at the moment used to be a lot of tech time and we've got a interesting screen for you. I think today it's gonna be our first time trying screwdriver it could.

A

B

Could be you know, troublesome we've never touched it before in our lives, but sounds pretty cool. So I'm ready to give that a try.

A

Wonderful yep, that's uh it's kind of where we're going. um We we're only going to stream for a little bit of time. uh Just so we can kind of make sure see how far we can get. But let me go ahead and switch over to my screen here.

A

There we go, and um this is screwdriver so um tldr. What is screwdriver.

B

I'll tell you ask that sentence just below you: it's an open source bird platform designed for cd, okay, okay, so why screwdriver those cool things three can show you one cluster. I think it will actually give us a cluster. Perhaps um it's not tied to welcome compute platform, restful fully docked api and it uses all those cool things. You can see the kubernetes logo there. You can see github.

B

um I can't save export and everything, but I really want to try this because I think it's been touted as being a cdf project or an incubating project and it's using some cool things under the covers.

B

So I think because the dive right in I like what they've done, they've given us a you know one command to do, and if you go there first on the new web browser, you can see what it's doing it basically pulls in an image. I think it's a docker socket. It's maybe a difficult open shift, but we're not an open shift at the moment. It does a bunch of things um and it asks you for a bunch of things as well.

B

So in my mind, I'm thinking a little bit like when you install jenkins x for the first time it's like. Oh, should I use git. This has got some prompts for using github, gitlab and bitbucket.

C

And I was thinking.

B

About something similar to that one.

A

Nice, nice, okay! um So so, if you want to try this on our machine here, we can I'm ready yep.

B

And then so I'm going to do that big command. True, go ahead! Jj.

A

Well, I was gonna say uh if this, for whatever reason this doesn't work on our look, the vm that we're sharing on the cloud, um we can always try to put this in actual kubernetes cluster, which I have a feeling might be a little bit more labor-intensive. But we did discover a um oh whoopsie.

B

Should we go and get it.

A

B

A

Yeah, I think I can just do a dnf install with this hang.

A

On I purposely don't allow sudo on this, because you know.

C

A

On the internet.

C

A

Let's see here.

A

Just thinking about it, I've been trying to uh convert over to centos eight for my machines, but I think I should have sent out seven for this one, because I wanted to use docker specifically, and I didn't want to have to deal with the was it the v2 c groups and pod man and all that jazz.

A

So so I kind of stuck there, but I know that's, I know that's bad form and you can you can reprimand me later. If you want adam.

B

In the next stream.

A

There you go here, we go and it looks like it's done. Okay, try it again.

B

Okay, so we've established that we need a few things, for example, python internet connection. I could compose thank you so much today, right. What's this so create a new oauth application. Github.Com go to this url to start the process.

B

Oh, this is a little.

A

hmm Yeah, that's not great! That's not a real.

C

B

Well, it's not less nice than jenkins x, I think so far, so I'm basically going to my public get-up jokes. uh I don't know what to say this year. I've already got a repo name screwdriver test. Let me call this item screwdriver on its own. um In fact, I might share my screen with you all. Actually this might take a while. You see so let me flip over to zoom and let me go to share screen and do that and then choose my desktop.

B

Hopefully you can all see github.

A

B

A

uh Go ahead and try sharing again.

B

I think I'm sharing you see this. No, no.

A

B

I think you do, I think, you'll see everything. Let me do it again. Share screen, desktop double click bam here,.

A

B

Now we're in business, okay, so what it says was two in console make a new application. So all this stuff to do is like uh prep works. I've gone to this url and I'm gonna call it adam screwdriver.

B

The url is uh url. Is that and then the authorization of ten dollars is this gonna work? What's this.

A

No no yeah, these are fake, ips call.

B

C

A

There you go so I don't know if this shouldn't this shouldn't work.

B

It shouldn't work, that's very important, registered application, so it makes it but may not be useful um and now what, when.

C

B

The phone buyers, client ip.

B

Client secret: oh, I need a client secret. Well, you've not told me to make one so I'm gonna go ahead and make one so generate a new client seeker. That's gonna, be uh all no one can see this, which is good uh a little bit and I've got a very good password.

B

Okay, let's do that, one! Okay! So now client secret. Let me just copy your new secret now, okay, bam, I've copied the client secret and now it says secret, and then it says to do this. Just from the following commands to get started. Look at compose, pull compose, pull.

A

But if you look at the last line, it says go ahead and do it for you.

B

Yep, so it's going to pull and then do a port for and then open something okay.

B

A

Is quite quick, yeah we're gonna, probably set up ngrok or something again to forward to this that um url right, so we can actually get to it, because this is on a remote machine and we don't have yeah access to it. At least I'm thinking that might be the best way to do it. But I'm open to suggestions.

B

I wonder what's going to try and do, though, like you'll get to use web hooks or what but yeah you're right if the application url's there, I need to interact with it somehow unless it doesn't set stuff for me, that'll be a little bit weird because whose account would it use foreign.

A

B

Okay, so we're pulling screwdriver cd, slash screwdriver, uh I guess we could actually cheat. We can actually look at the this url and we can kind of see what it's doing- there's probably a docker pulling here somewhere. um So I think, okay, there we go.

C

B

We're at this stage we're running the following commands to get started.

B

I think yep and we go out from them now. I've clicked. Yes, it's just doing all this for us. If it's why it's sanitize the input and then it says oh, can I try to open something uh the ip address and the port? Then it will say, launched otherwise skipping yep.

A

Let me get some handy.

B

Commands get a little love heart, so, okay, this could be interesting, triggering builds. It does not support web pops out of the box. It's.

A

Odd, okay, this seems really weird.

B

Yeah, okay! Well, I've got the love heart. uh I couldn't get a fast. It's going to the console.

B

Yeah, that's that's this command, I'm guessing! uh Okay! So now what do I do? I can compose my speed with that. If that changes do this uh where's hello world, if I go to screwdriver I'll go to the guide next, let's see what this tells us. So here's a guide, okay, I've now got it installed. I think, uh let's see so it's kind of some poor repository and cd into it. This feels not like jenkins x by the way.

C

B

Without the webpog bit so it says I can do a git clone username quickstart generic. uh I don't think I need to give it a.

A

Username, good god, I clicked on that, um create your own cluster, oh yeah, just to kind of flip through the instructions and uh wow. This is first of all, very very aws centric. I'm.

C

Gonna actually teach you how.

A

To set up a db instance, but you're required to set up a db instance of postgres um on aws- um and this is this- is pretty intense. I'm not gonna lie yeah.

B

Well, I've I've done goofed because uh because some pro repo into your environment will cover the generic one, so I've I've made a mistake here. I ain't actually fought quick start each night. Oh it's four! Four years ago, okay, four.

A

C

B

Four years did.

A

We even have kubernetes four years ago. That's a that's a joke.

B

A

B

Maybe you only had like deployments and pods.

A

Yeah, exactly everything was in node port. Everything was a node port yeah.

B

Everything so, okay, so I've got that repo. It says to clone the repo. So let's do that and then let's go back to the guide, uh not about that. That's me and you uh not that that screwdriver uh go back here, maybe and then here again, so it's probably a little quick project. It's a little starter. One thing see the insert right here. We are nice and big. So after I got the test projects make files.

B

Okay, don't really need to know that at the moment now we'll set it up, we can start developing how to make file on bash script in your screwdriver build so I've I got. I've got a make file. I do and I've got a script excellent. So the yaml is on configuration that we need.

A

B

You'll define all the steps you need for develop. Okay, excellent.

C

B

uh What is in the ammo? What have you got for me?

B

uh Okay, remember. I can't scroll here jj, but I'm going to do a pipe class so from the top shared definition book shared image.

A

What are the comments.

B

Jobs, maine jobs are defined by name all pipelines. We have to attack from pipelines.

C

B

Implicitly defined, oh technology been around for two and a half years, though so I'm not sure might be a jenkins pipeline steps.

B

And then a second job, so maybe your first job is building your second job is pass or deploy if you're feeling brave so.

A

B

That file that we've got there shared is very defined attributes I just will inherit. So if the rwa is the same image, you put it into shared makes sense. This looks like a.

A

B

Of jenkins pipeline, the way this is laid out reminds me of something.

A

Hang on don't don't move that scroll back up for me crash.

B

A

Library, those build packs sound, familiar opaque depths, isn't that being deprecated.

C

Let's go there yeah, so it's.

A

What I was just looking at myself, buildpack.

A

It's a docker community thing.

C

A

Pretty, oh, okay: there we go. What is the build packed up? It says the first line right there. That's the reason why it's, the um stack, heroku stack images, so if I were correctly um build packs, this is a canico thing right. um This is not used. This was used at some point inside of openshift.

A

I think s2i comes from this. Maybe but.

C

They're moving.

A

But they're moving away from this, I think um that's why or maybe I'm crossing some wires, but this this felt. This feels like this isn't here for a long which I think is odd. Anyway. Sorry keep going.

B

Okay, well, it seems like we're going to be using that I think. Well, that's just our example at least, and then there's a job section and there's a workflow section. There's.

A

B

Section, um I actually don't know when I read all of this. I want I just use it at the moment. So it's.

A

B

Steps which sounds a bit tech time-like at this point.

A

Right there, that's what we're looking for export export. The greeting echo, the greeting and it looks like you, declare hello, that's that seems a little weird.

B

C

B

Step called hello: oh, is this the declaration of it this.

A

B

Declaring this step called hello.

A

Yeah, oh okay, so it's a one command step for export, one command for hello and then at the end it sets the metadata second job kicks in declare make target, which is make greetings, get metadata and then run run. Arbitrary script is a really weird thing to declare.

B

That's just their actual name. Isn't it yeah.

A

No well, I think the only way we can find out if we try it yeah.

B

Okay, okay, so it says screws out of the ui to blend the point up: building a screwdriver all right so log into the screwdriver using github set up your pipeline starter bill so create a new pipeline click on the create icon.

B

I have to log in with oh hang on, so I've got a gift, screwdriver access to my repos, and then you enter your repo link and this.

B

B

B

Yes, I see so well. I don't want to show you that this is so. Oh if I go back to my little application.

B

There we go so we're back on my little application right, so I own this application.

B

um What's this url, it won't work. Will it.

A

B

Because why would it? And what what's this ip.

A

It's nothing! That's I'm actually in the process of getting ngrok set up. In the background.

B

Yeah, I think we have to do that because there's nothing I mean if I do a ping on that, there's nothing!

B

Oh! That's you, hello,.

A

A

C

A

Do you want to kill the screen.

B

Shack jk in the meantime,.

A

Oh, no, no! It's fine! This isn't really important. um The port was what 9.9 000.

B

Yep yep, that's right: port, nine thousand.

A

All right, so if you want to change the home page url to if you go back to the thing and you'll see, there's a forwarding on there now right there.

B

It's this url yep, that's my home page and the callback is going to be the same thing, but on slash 9001.

A

Oh, I need to hold on. I need to fix that. um Maybe I can do n grok 1001, oh you're, killing me. uh We can all your account. Did you ask? I was going into one simultaneous and grog client section, um let's see if I can figure out a way to give myself more. Give me a second.

A

Am I just about to pay for ngrok.

B

A

I should say is ibm about to pay for ingrock.

B

No, I don't think we are. I don't think we have to do any of this, but we have to get an ip.

B

We could not use the ibm cloud ingress.

A

uh We'd have to manipulate some stuff around to make that happen.

A

Give me a second to think: okay, oh and it seems that the five dollar a month still only allows you to have one online process. The 8 25 allows you to have two.

B

But you want to have the just one process: don't we which they're selling like one.

A

Yeah, well, my thought is: is um we need to get to? We need to get to port, 9000 and 9001. It seems right and we'd have to change.

A

We'd have to do no well, this wasn't a kubernetes cluster. This is a machine right where we would have to do some routing to get from our external ip to port 9001 right yeah.

B

Hello, I exist. Can I just not make an ngoc one that uses 9001.

A

No, that's what happens at the bottom right. There.

B

Yeah, but that's you ah you want me to talk to each other. Well, though, if I have an english set up and I'll do the I be able to talk to yours on.

A

A thousand yep.

B

Otherwise, I'd all be too open right. Everyone could just ping each.

A

B

A

B

Yeah yeah, what forgot at the moment what we got I'll forget anything. So if I do docker images, okay, I got screwdriver. I've got a bucket ps. uh I have a screwdriver running.

B

Can I do something a little bit crazy? Can I uh what if I part of that, I'm just doing dr ps and the docker exec minus it.

C

B

um Okay, so I think I'm now inside of screwdriver- and it looks to me like it's- an object, application mm-hmm.

B

I wonder what I can do without a ui. ah I really want the ui.

A

Well: okay, if you go back hold on uh control d out of these two.

B

Yeah go back to that docker, ps, yeah yeah, we'll do.

A

Okay, so if we see there, we have all ports listening to 9001, which is pointing to 80 on screwdriver, stable stores, 9002 port 80 on store, stable and ui is 9080.. So in theory we could hit the external ip of this box on port 9000, because it's do. We have any weird firewalls going on right now: check uh do firewall or cisco uh or sorry cis system, ctl.

A

Sorry, systemctl! That's this detail!

A

Yeah! Almost there we go um getting a cue out of this uh firewall or status firewall d.

C

A

Oops sorry here can we do it.

B

Yeah yeah, I was gonna, do my ip tables ifconfig and all that jazz.

A

We're we're about to get there firewall status. I always do this wrong.

B

Oh, it's a service and there's a service running right.

A

Instead, okay, so in in theory, in theory, curl.

A

Pmux.Asgarlabs.Io port 9000. there. It is.

B

That's the html page yeah. It's actually, let's go there yeah, so I can undo all of this and if what's the url that I use.

A

uh Tmux.Asgarlabs.Io.

B

A

Yep- and that should be also the same at the bottom now and you should be able to go to that port- that homepage url. Now too,.

B

Oh I'm acting. Imagine that that'd be fantastic.

A

If I, if I've got my if I've got my networking right here,.

C

A

You should be able to see something there.

B

Anyone should be able to hey.

A

All right we're getting somewhere yay.

B

A

That's annoying hello.

B

Oh, that's: getting inspected up.

A

B

um um What the.

A

Hell, does that mean.

B

uh Maybe it's just the wrong thing. What is that? What does the guy say? Does the stage go to 9000 9001, I'm unauthorized?

B

It could be anything so getting started. Developing the app there's, the ammo cool uh where's, the ui section again.

B

B

It's under setup, it's under requirements, yeah.

A

B

It votes, but it doesn't actually.

A

Show up anything: oh if you get 9001, you get a you, get an error. 404, there's a slash.

B

Login page, that's me here: oh.

A

Oh hello, hold on, I think you just showed up nope. No, it didn't.

C

A

Let's go so, it shows up briefly go to slash login um yep, give it a second and it shows up just briefly and then vanishes.

B

Now is it so, in my configuration.

A

B

Go right there.

A

Did it actually work like.

B

Mine didn't stick around.

A

B

Yeah yeah you're just uh not lucky today, you're, not the lucky one, so it seems well, I'm not sure it's a useful page.

A

um What does that even mean.

B

B

I think I must have done goofed if I go back to my oaf sentence this. Does this url look correct to you.

A

B

And does this yes and.

A

Does this well, I mean description. Go to that url that callback url at the bottom go to that.

B

A

Let's see what happens there.

B

You at least get a copy from here. First, oh, nothing.

A

B

It's still running now.

A

Mine's coming up now, is it yeah, so we must have missed some some configuration somewhere. um Where was.

A

The ammo in here crocker compose, oh here we go. Oh it's.

B

A

uh Oh wait. No! No! Wait! Yes!.

B

Hi, yes, hey, hey.

A

Bring up the terminal.

B

A

I'm pretty sure it's this problem right here, right.

B

um Is that url yeah.

A

B

Prompting us for things yes, so we could either go around the cycle again or edit them hey in the yammer. He says in the old ip, not our new english ip.

A

Well, not even not remember not even anger, it's um we're just going directly to the machine right.

B

A

All right so then we can do docker and pose.

B

I'm looking forward to this I'm going to click on the little pipeline button it'll be.

A

Great everything down and then bring everything back up.

A

All right we're actually seeing things happen now. There.

B

A

Look at that bottom one. It's actually.

B

A

Thick in there.

B

I'm 9001 at the moment and I was going to where's 9 000 normal.

B

Okay, I'm going in I'm going in. Let me refresh this just for that fun! Yep there we go. That's my response. I guess I mean if I do.

C

B

Again, do you get a new there? You go. That's me on my map cool starting with github. Oh there we go.

A

Much better much better.

B

uh Right now you want to be able to do all of this access. All these organized r.

A

I give it give it access to the ibm, work, yeah.

B

B

Now, how about text.

A

B

I'm giving access to adopt open, jdk.

A

Well, what is that.

B

I think I'm a maintainer still.

B

That's, uh maybe I'm not a maintainer. Let's, let's go back to this, um those that don't know I was in the first team that built this.

C

B

Their jenkins scripts, their pipelines and as of george and joe great guys and tim, and we got it all working and I was a maintainer and either far most, I don't think I'm maintaining now anymore. I think I've been eliminated because I'm no longer working on it, I'm just I'll all! Remember: okay, that's cool! That's fine! I didn't want to accidentally give access to everything ever so now. I can go back to that little login window, which is which is uh over here nope over here nope over note.

B

That's me again over here what where's it going! Jj.

A

It's a it's a pop-up. It's that author's application. One you.

B

Mean yeah okay go on, then um everyone can see what I'm doing it looks. Okay, if it's not okay, it will be removed instantly. Let's see what this does? It's all my public github, not my ibm github as well.

A

And uh in the logs I see uh github a roberts that has logged in via oauth, so.

B

Looks like it actually has. No token, though, do you.

A

B

A

um You should refresh that page now.

B

There we go: oh excellent, screwdriver folks, you're, probably watching this thinking, what a clown! Well now it's resolved and I've got this nice little ui. They haven't created a pipeline. Yet that's.

A

B

B

Slap channel- okay, that's good github! I like this is just handy, uh my pipelines blog. What's in the blog, let's go here, improvements and fixes always welcome. uh When was that.

A

Published already found a.

B

A

I can put in.

B

A

B

That was kind of recent. That was the number nine for 2020 good, so still being maintained, and let's go back to the guide.

B

Now steps building with screwdriver create okay, create login enter the repo you are on with your branch name immediately afterwards or if no default is provided against users. Sorry, if you don't give it a branch, now just build the main branch. I guess over default branch, fine create pipeline.

A

Wait wait, aren't you supposed to be doing that um forked repo.

B

uh Yep, that's what I'm doing I'm gonna, I'm gonna! Do that. I'm gonna point it to it. Sorry.

C

A

B

That repo, it's not even cool, believe it or not. It's a robert slash.

B

Repose and my little screwdriver sample- oh I'm sure I earlier. If I go to screwdriver cd, quickstart yeah, I'm sure I default. Yes, hey roberts, quick, start generic, but it's in this weight organization.

B

Wait! What okay, weird! I'm just gonna use this url. So we go to ncr repo.

B

B

You want a screwdriver, maybe an optional. What is.

B

Screwdriver.Com.

C

B

C

Right so I've got a pipeline.

B

So I've done the login I've done the repo now you've created a pipeline, go with starboard to start your build. um I want my pipeline to just do like hello. Hello would be, it would be good. So.

A

What's your stuff, your github email address the one you use.

B

uh It's uh that's a good question. My personal get up. Email address.

A

Whatever you get that little icon, that that is that one yeah.

B

Yeah, I know it could be anything who knows.

B

A

Hang on one second, I'm giving you co-author right here: okay, it's at uk.pbm.com, cool.

B

Okay, yay, so here's my little pipe point. I've made I just clicked on start uh htcp. No such image, screwdriver, cd, long shirt.

B

Stable, who is this.

A

That's uh that was from the very first one if you go back to that fort repo tiffany k is the icon that was on the top.

B

Was it that does make perfect sense.

A

If you look right there, it was oh where'd, it go. There.

B

It is I like the example.

C

B

So, let's tell me what it's building.

B

um Am I bind this is three or four years ago. This is 2018..

B

Neither of those are three or four years ago. That's two years ago, at most.

A

Yeah, maybe the uh m time is messed up on the files or something or the they get.

B

Yeah yeah something.

A

Like that is jacked up.

B

Yeah, okay well, either way, apparently.

B

I wonder what it's doing. I wonder where this is screwdriver cd or just stabilize. Is this on our our build system.

B

If I control seattle, this is a destroy screwdriver.

A

Oh yes, um but here give me a second here. um What I'll do for you is here we go there's another.

B

A

Terminal for you.

B

So, what's going to do with images, pipe grip that okay, that can be used power gap screwdriver, so you have the cd slash large at the stable, so it is here on the system.

B

uh Maybe I need to restart it. So if I do start.

C

C

B

Has that has that worked okay? So it's still going there's a little there's a little cog, spinning still, which is good.

A

By the way, adam.

C

A

Give me two seconds here: oh we got some spam in our chat, lovely.

B

Oh yeah we're excellent we're.

A

A

There you go go ahead and bring that up I'll. Send you a.

B

Slack message: oh, I think I can go to my slack.

B

I don't know what window that I'm on over. There could be anything.

A

B

Dragged up in zoom.

A

uh Sure, hang on.

B

Just because I've got ibm juicy things, oh you made an issue. I can see it on my phone.

A

B

That's I was going to have all 364 fix for suck and github typos good.

A

Yes, where is chat where.

B

I don't know, but this pipeline is apparently working. I think it's worked actually commit main second job, and I bet you in that little project. There was a uh sweetheart.yaml. We have two steps, so here we go job main steps, blah blah blah. So if I were to modify this right, so it's got commit main second job yeah, it's second job in this file.

B

It is now what I can do is this is what everyone else does is copy that call this. One third job requires main as well. Steps is going to be. um Why don't? I just do an echo so export hello. What's hello, I just want to go hello. Maybe I have those are built in so so one two in them. Second cubing. That is one two and then let's go, I'm just gonna. Do hey twitch and I'd pay twitch.

B

Let's have this up as well, and then, let's edit this file, I mean it commits a master straight away and then go over here. Let's see if this kicks off in it. So remember it said by default, it's not on its own.

B

Now, if I start the pipeline, it should say third job my commit should show up here there we go see I'd hate twitch. This is quite nice. Actually I could probably do a pull request and it'll show up over here as well.

A

B

I think once you go over the networking hurdle, um no thought of screwdrivers, this isn't too bad at all.

B

A

B

He's under the covers, you know if it's.

A

B

A

It's a good question. That was a good question.

B

Never got any coupons. No. I've got any weird namespaces. It's like a screwdriver namespace, very much stuck a compose. Maybe it's not using cube at all. uh If I do a qctl get all.

B

All name spaces: oh.

A

No, this is that's an actual kubernetes cluster. That's not that's! Not what the this docker compose we're running.

B

Right, okay, so we're not using cubenets at all.

A

Correct we're just.

B

A

Everything, luckily, no we're not okay,.

B

But I imagine this could come back as a helmet chart an operator, uh I'm not sure. By the way this is actually working. It's got ad, hey twitch, it's doing the first step. All I get metrics. I can start from a certain part of the pipeline as well yeah. I wonder what the execution engine is, um I'm on the same machine as you up there right in the same terminal.

B

I do pscf pipe uh java.

C

C

A

I'm looking through the.

C

B

It must be running that screwdriver.

B

Stupid stable rocket file and she's no ah she's in the build pack, isn't it that we told it to use. I remember this is just all docker okay, this worked. It did second job and third job excellent. I wonder why I didn't go main second. Third, it went main both at the same time.

B

Okay, pull requests.

B

So what we're going to do is we're going to do a.

C

New poll request.

B

We're going to do test 2 from master and we're gonna change the yammer again just to change the build step and we're gonna edit. This and.

A

Instead of saying.

B

A

According to the docs, um screwdriver is the api. The main engine for the ci cd cluster store is the actual artifact repository and launcher is a worker component that actually executes the build. You cannot change this image. um You can always specify a specific tag to use.

B

A

B

So you have to use the wait which one cannot configure the build pack or the screwdriver images.

A

um It's called launcher.

C

A

uh Entry point for job launching and screwdriver.

A

Yeah, I'm not seeing launcher hmm okay.

B

B

Same okay, let's see how it handles pro requests uh right. Here's quick start! Generic again, I'm gonna create a pull request from the branch test. Two and it's gonna do oh hold on not into a screwdriver insert me into my own fork. It's gotta say hello jj. This is a piano all right! So do that head over to to this panel, and I wonder I think, I'm about to refresh this manually.

B

It's gonna pick up this. So if I.

B

Refresh okay, there you go there's a piano over here and I can press stop. I can let it do its thing and my next thing uh where's my. Why.

C

B

B

Because I thought I thought this might show up over here.

A

I would yeah, I would imagine you'd see that pr one instead of the commit one line, uh see you like going right back there backpack yeah, see that pr, I would imagine the pr would show up.

C

B

Well, stop maybe the start is like start watching all the repos full requests and then it gets off the pipeline. I'm not sure. So, let's see if this uh populates that ui.

A

A

We have gotten significantly farther than hygiene and we thought we would so that's always a pleasure.

B

This is true, okay, so I just started the pipeline again. I guess this is showing up uh options.

B

Reports, nothing she.

C

B

I know they put in the effort to make this like an array of quirky strings.

C

That picks them at.

B

Random good um right, so that's all the options for that can remove pipelines. I can manage pipelines metrics so can I see which of my pipelines took the longest on? My builds probably can uh for a week six months. Custom date ranges is nice. I like this and then events uh where's, my podcast still.

C

B

If I click on that hey, what's this finished, but ah okay, yeah.

C

Oh, this is interesting.

B

There's like a little breakdown of what happened inside the pipeline, reminds me about the tactile dashboard see it's like all the steps it's like it's like tempting, but without the type without the jambo in kubernetes.

C

B

Booker compose protect on with a nice dashboard where I was taking tony's techton with tecton, with yammer with a nice dashboard. So this is very much reminding me of that at the moment, but with integrations of github all setup. A bit like jenkins x by taking his x, is more kubernetes yep, just for not use kubernetes.

A

You can you absolutely can read in the docs, um yes, but it's all very specifically aws kubernetes right now: okay,.

B

But you could you could uh give it a good try right currently example's pws. I see I see because then that yeah, that would be a really nice flip-flops ocd environment on cube. I I don't mind this at all. Actually, it's quite nice. It's you know finally, easy to use I've, not gotten infuriated by any screwdriver caused problems completely fine.

C

B

To collection, I can create a collection, so if I merge this pull request, uh what happens so merge you commit merge, go over here.

B

Let's see what happens so, maybe a new event will pop up or maybe a new pipeline will pop up. So pull requests finished two minutes ago.

A

Eventually, did it push back under the pr that it finished.

B

Oh, did it be at the status in github, uh no.

A

Well, verified there we go.

B

Yeah yeah, that's cool I'll, get some view, details screwdriver what everything looks good. Oh this is nice. I like this and that url is the pipeline one and yes,.

C

B

Azealia, this is good done, screwdriver folks uh quite like this, and you could all work on your same pipeline at um the repo that you've august fought the quick start, one the screwdriver.yaml one, so you go to your person you go to there.

B

This is that, with your script, all your app code in here, um fantastic, oh, fantastic, well, done darren! I like this um good congratulations! Thank you.

B

Now, what do I do? That's it really.

A

B

You just kind of.

A

Yeah, that's it that's! It.

B

Did you say you went through the cluster set up early, but it was that awsome. That's the kubernetes stuff right yeah, that was all communities, so this is cool. This is normal. Docker go ahead so.

A

If you go back to the main page, you'll notice that they also use nomad, um do they have nomad support? If you scroll down is.

B

That one of these icons.

A

um Already from what I've seen so far, if I was building a build farm- and I was if I was told- to use um screwdriver to do the ci cd, if this almost feels like kubernetes might be a little bit, what we're looking for heavy-handed.

C

A

Where, um where using um nomad, might actually be advantageous, but that's another conversation for another time,.

B

All right: well, I think we've done well there I enjoyed using that. Actually it wasn't too bad at all. uh I guess next up would be to dig into screwdriver a little more, maybe try and apply some cd principle there, with some gating logic, running some tests, seeing where the test output goes.

B

I don't think kubernetes is worth uh trouble right now if the documentation is on for amazon personally.

A

But we we could, in theory, try to spend some time to re-edit. um I went ahead and turned off the screen share. um In theory, we could try to figure out the equivalent of the the database that they're using on um on aws and just use our version on uh ibm cloud yeah.

C

A

um I have a feeling- that's not worth us, trying to figure out this exact moment in time. It would be kind of a fun little experiment to let me even push it back upstream, be like hey. We figured out how to get this working on ibm cloud, but that's that's not really. We just like scratched the surface, something we could do with this, which happy pathwise, pretty good, not gonna lie.

B

Yeah, I find it easier to use. um It was quicker than jenkins x because I don't think this is that's feature rich. I think, because excellence got many many many pods and many many helm, charts and sub charts and many features and the jxci is very powerful. This is kind of like a halfway house between just using text on it so to build things um jenkins x, but you can use just docker if you want or kubernetes if you want, but it's quite amazon friendly at the moment, um and I don't think it's that neutral.

B

I don't know if it'll work on mini q by desktop- I don't know, but I think that's how I'm seeing it at the moment and yeah the whole pipeline definition just mercy of tecton. It's just.

A

B

Steps that kind of thing, so it was good I liked it cool, I probably would use it again.

A

Nice well uh I'll, go ahead and and upload this to our typical channels that we have and uh we're not going to be around next week but the week after we're planning on streaming again, and maybe, if either of us have the ambition to try to figure out something deeper inside of um screwdriver that might be worth it or hell. Hopefully, one of us will, I know I'm planning on it right now, but we'll see because you know holidays next week. um Hopefully we can even try to get this running on the ibm cloud.

A

Maybe we just do like an internal postgres database or something like that. um Instead of the external one and just anyway, there's we have options. We have options which is great cool. Everyone say bye.

B

Yeah bye everyone thanks for tuning in and we hope to see you next time. It's good fun, cool, bye, cheers, bye.
