What is Jenkins Pipeline?

DevOps professionals mostly work with pipelines because pipelines can automate the processes like building, testing, and deploying the application. Doing manually by UI takes lots of time and effort which will affect productivity. With the help of Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) Pipeline scripts we can automate the whole process which will increase productivity and save lots of time for the organization and can deliver quality applications to the end users.To know more about how to build the CI/CD pipeline.

  1. Before installing Jenkins you should have already installed java on your device as above said it works on java, so it’s important to install and for that, you should install version jdk8. You can find the download it from the link provided. Make sure while downloading JDK8, choose a favorable option based on your OS (like windows X 64 bit), and then install the JDK8.
    • After installing java check it by using command prompt by java -version and this will show whether you have it or not.
  2. Now, go to the official website of Jenkins i.e. www.jenkins.io. Here you will have two options one is an LTS release and one is a weekly release. Download Jenkins for windows from the LTS section(recommended).
  3. After download, open that zip(compressed) file, and by right click and choose the all extract option extract the file. We are doing extraction to unzip the compressed file.
  4. After extracting, you can see a new folder of Jenkins. Open it and install Jenkins. After installing, it will automatically take you to the browser where localhost::8080 is running. 8080 is the by default port of Jenkins. And if the browser automatically doesn’t open then simply search localhost::8080.
    • After this, you will see the dashboard or interface of Jenkins. If you are installing it the first time then it will show you some plugins which are recommended to install. And then, you are ready to use Jenkins.
