Jenkins Cloud Plugin for Bluemix

The aim of the docker plugin is to be able to use a Bluemix Containers to dynamically provision a slave, run a single build, then tear-down that slave.

This repo is based on a fork of docker-plugin

It also uses as submodule a fork of docker-java

Because docker-java is a submodule, use --reqursive flag with git clone e.g.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/dunchych/jenkins-plugin-bluemix.git

This plugin requires same configuration as Docker plugin for Jenkins

https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Docker+Plugin

In addition, Bluemix login credentials need to be set up in Jenkins as per below. This allows plugin to automatically logs into Bluemix by itself. It will also re-login after every 72 hours upon use as will be seen in logs.

The cf executable and cf ic plugin need to be installed and be on the $PATH for jenkins id as plugin executes these command via shell.

In Jenkins UI console - add credentials in global domain:

1.  Kind= Username with password
   

2.  Scope = Global
   

3.  Username = Bluemix id
   

4.  Password = Bluemix pwd
   

5.  ID must be = BLUEMIX   - a keyword , that’s how plugin finds these creds among other credentials in Jenkins
   

6.  Description is overloaded and is used to provide org:space  separated by colon e.g. as shown. Not ideal.. but saves messing with Jenkins UI to provide custom UI configs
