On deploying application using Jenkins build pileline refer the following video:
Once we have our application tested and working fine than we need them to be deployed to multiple environments like stage than followed by production to get our application and running as soon as possible.
First we need to create a Artifacts for our code.
Go to Post-build Actions and select Archive the artifacts.
Add entry as **/*.war to create war file in job's home directory.
Save and Build the job to create artifacts.
If you see the Console output now you will get the output saying Archiving artifacts finished with Success.
And see the Status of your build where you will get the war file created in job home directory.
Now we need tomcat to be installed and running in our environment to make it all work. Download tomcat from following link.
Give the executable permission to executable files in bin folder.
As I'm running Jenkins on port 8080 so will be running the Tomcat on port 8081 so that there is no conflicts of ports. To do that edit the line no 69 in server.xml file in conf directory with port no 8081.
Create a Admin user to run our application by editing the tomcat-user.xml file in conf directory and add similar type of code with username and password as per your need.
Now start the Tomcat service to see if all is running fine.
Go to your browser and enter the IP address of your system followed by the port which you have defined for your Tomcat server which is in my case 8081.
Now we need to copy our Artifact in tomcat server so that it can be run and in order to do so we need to install Copy Artifact plugin in Jenkins.
Go to Manage Jenkins than Plugin Manager than Available and search Copy Artifact and install it.
Followed by Deploy to container plugin.
Now Lets create new job which will deploy our war file in tomcat so we can execute it.
I'm creating with name stage-test1, Go to Build and add the project whose war file we want to deploy in my case its git-test1 which I used to test in previous Tutorial. Enter **/*.war to copy all war files from build. Now add Post-build Actions in which we will define our Tomcat credentials and files which need to be passed.
Now we need to define in our original job(git-test1) in which the war file was created to execute tomcat related job(stage-test1) after successful creation on war file.
Go to Configure than Post-build Actions define here files to be copied which are war files here and Project to build name which is stage-test1.
Now Go to Jenkins and Build your initial job which is git-test1 in my case.
You will the second job added in build queue and executed.
You will in the output console of stage-test1 that our war file has been successfully deployed.
Now go to your tomcat server followed by /webapp to see your application running fine.
In the similar way you can add steps to deploy application to your production server as well.
