I would like to run Docker containers for all of my software projects and dynamically allocate build slaves via ECS (so that I can have a core cluster that can do builds quickly; in contrast to spinning up an EC2 instance).
For example, I have a Java application which is completely contained in a Docker container (I can build it, run tests, and run the actual application with Tomcat all within the container). I want to use this for a variety of different purposes (dev, testing, qa, and production). In order to make it reusable like that, I don't want to include Jenkins Slave packages and expose ports. I'd rather deploy out a Jenkins-Slave container to my ECS cluster, and then have that slave handle running my application's docker container which also performs tests. I also support other team applications which are already running docker container builds in Jenkins (locally on the Jenkins Master). I want it to be transparent to them that I'm "outsourcing" build slaves to ECS. It shouldn't matter to them that I'm changing the way Jenkins is performing builds. Let me know if you (or anyone else) have suggestions based on my goals. -Brandon Wagner On Fri, Jan 22, 2016 at 2:48 PM, nicolas de loof <nicolas.del...@gmail.com> wrote: > privileged flag has been added to development build ( > https://jenkins.ci.cloudbees.com/job/plugins/job/amazon-ecs-plugin/) > anyway, DinD is probably not a good idea (there's really few docker usages > to actually require it).
