gCubeTagging Pipeline Project

In gCube we use a Pipeline to tag all the repositories forming a gCube Release. The pipeline project is available at: https://jenkins.d4science.org/job/Pipeline-gCubeTagging/


Parameters

Jenkins tagging pipeline params.png

The pipeline takes as input the parameters needed to locate a commits report.

The commits report is generated by the Builder pipeline. The tagging pipeline assumes that the report is available at:

https://code-repo.d4science.org/gCubeCI/gCubeReleases/raw/branch/master/closed/<gcube_release_version>/build_commits.<report_number>.csv

Triggers

No triggers are defined because the pipeline is expected to be manually launched by the Release Manager:

It can be changed according to the release needs and the availability of a sufficient number of dedicate agents in Jenkins.

Git

The pipeline is maintained in a Git repository. This section connects the project to the Git repository.

Jenkins Pipeline Definition

Git Repository

The definition of the gCube release pipeline is maintained in this Git Repository: https://code-repo.d4science.org/gCubeCI/gCubeTagging.

Requirements on Jenkins

Jenkins Pipeline Execution

In order to use as input the following sample report available at https://code-repo.d4science.org/gCubeCI/gCubeRelease/raw/branch/master/releases/4.10.0/build_commits.12.csv:

GroupID,ArtifactID,Version,SCM URL,Build Number,Distribution URL,Filename,Packaging
org.gcube.tools,strategy-forward,1.1.0,https://code-repo.d4science.org/Playground/MergeStrategyFastForward,66f5fd1da37229615268955eeaf46870dd4d6576,...

We run the pipeline with the following parameters:

  • Type = TAG
  • gcube_release_number = 4.10.0
  • report_number = 12

On the jenkins console, we can see the messages logging the tagging activity on the repository:

On gitea, we can appreciate that the tag has been pushed;

On a local cloned repo, we can fetch the new tag:

Tags

The pipeline must tag the master branch at the commit ID reported in the build report.

The commit is tagged twice:

  • v<component version>
  • r<Gcube Release number>

Tag Report

If the pipeline execution succeeds, it sends a tag report to the release manager. The report includes the following information for each Git repository tagged:

  • the artifact id
  • the artifact version
  • the SCM url
  • the commit tagged
  • the component tag pushed to the repository
  • the gCube release tag pushed to the repository

Here's an example of a tag report:
