David Avendasora 58.1 1 [[Jenkins>>http://jenkins-ci.org/]] is an "extensible continuous integration server". It monitors repeated executions of jobs, such as building software projects, and can be used to build WebObjects applications and frameworks. Hudson is an open source project, and can be used at no cost. An introductory presentation on building WebObjects projects with Hudson (the predecessor to Jenkins) was given by Mike Schrag at WOWODC-West in 2009, and the video can be [[purchased from wocommunity.org>>http://www.wocommunity.org/apps/WebObjects/WOCommunity.woa/wa/recordings]].

David Avendasora 58.1 3 === Upgrading from Hudson ===
4
5 Switching from Hudson to Jenkins is straight-forward since Hudson was the foundation that Jenkins was forked from. jenkins-ci.org has a [[wiki entry>>https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Upgrading+from+Hudson+to+Jenkins]] to help with the change.

David Avendasora 56.1 7 === Stand-Alone Mac OS X Setup ===
Pascal Robert 37.1 8
David Avendasora 56.1 9 1. Download the Jenkins Binary Installer from the [[Jenkins Website>>http://jenkins-ci.org/]].
David Avendasora 58.1 10 The direct link to get he latest installer is: [[http://mirrors.jenkins-ci.org/osx/latest]]. This will download a standard OS X Installer Package named ##jenkins-n.nnn.pkg##.
11 1. Run the installer
12 [[image:JenkinsInstaller.png]]
David Avendasora 56.1 13 1. Restart your computer
14 This is required because the current version of Jenkins does not create the its directory until it launches after you restart you computer.
15 1. Point your browser to: [[http://localhost:8080/]]
David Avendasora 58.1 16 1. Start setting up jobs (Instructions from WOWODC2011 Coming Soon)

David Avendasora 56.1 18 === Using SSL ===
Pascal Robert 37.1 19
David Avendasora 58.1 20 Setting up SSL for Jenkins is surprisingly easy. The following is originally from the [[SSL Setup Options>>http://jenkins.361315.n4.nabble.com/SSL-Setup-Options-td954261.html]] page on nabble.com:
Pascal Robert 37.1 21
22 1. Create a selfsigned test SSL certificate. 
23 keytool genkey keyalg RSA alias selfsigned keystore keystore.jks -storepass ToPSecRet321 dname "cn=localhost"
David Avendasora 54.1 24 1. Launch Hudson.

David Avendasora 54.1 27 java -jar hudson.war --httpPort=-1 --httpsPort=8080 --httpsKeyStore=keystore.jks --httpsKeyStorePassword=ToPSecRet321
Pascal Robert 37.1 28 {{/noformat}}
29
30 1. Launch browser 
31 Open "https:~/~/localhost:8080" in browser. You might get a browser warning, because the certificate is not signed by a known certificate authority. Communication is SSL-encrypted nevertheless.
32
David Avendasora 56.1 33 {{note title="Please Note"}}
34 The port has changed from the original instructions. That was required on Mac OS X because of permissions. Also, it's worth noting that the keytool asks for a second password for the private key of the ssl certificate. We are using the same password as the keystore password and everything works. It is unclear if that makes a difference.
