jenkins-agent-k8s docs: How to contribute

How to contribute

Overview

This document explains the processes and practices recommended for contributing enhancements to the Jenkins agent k8s operator.

  • Generally, before developing enhancements to this charm, you should consider opening an issue explaining your use case.
  • If you would like to chat with us about your use-cases or proposed implementation, you can reach us at Canonical Matrix public channel or Discourse.
  • Familiarising yourself with the Charmed Operator Framework library will help you a lot when working on new features or bug fixes.
  • All enhancements require review before being merged. Code review typically examines
    • code quality
    • test coverage
    • user experience for Juju operators of this charm.
  • Please help us out in ensuring easy to review branches by rebasing your pull request branch onto the main branch. This also avoids merge commits and creates a linear Git commit history.
  • Please generate src documentation for every commit. See the section below for more details.

Developing

The code for this charm can be downloaded as follows:

git clone https://github.com/canonical/jenkins-agent-k8s-operator

You can use the environments created by tox for development:

tox --notest -e unit
source .tox/unit/bin/activate

Testing

Note that the Jenkins agent k8s needs to be built and pushed to microk8s for the tests to run. It should be tagged as localhost:32000/jenkins-agent-k8s:latest so that Kubernetes knows how to pull them from the microk8s repository. Note that the microk8s registry needs to be enabled using microk8s enable registry. More details regarding the OCI images below. The following commands can then be used to run the tests:

  • tox: Runs all of the basic checks (lint, unit, static, and coverage-report).
  • tox -e fmt: Runs formatting using black and isort.
  • tox -e lint: Runs a range of static code analysis to check the code.
  • tox -e static: Runs other checks such as bandit for security issues.
  • tox -e unit: Runs the unit tests.
  • tox -e integration: Runs the integration tests.

Generating src docs for every commit

Run the following command:

echo -e "tox -e src-docs\ngit add src-docs\n" >> .git/hooks/pre-commit
chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit

Build charm

Build the charm in this git repository using:

charmcraft pack

For the integration tests (and also to deploy the charm locally), the jenkins-agent-k8s image is required in the microk8s registry. To enable it:

microk8s enable registry

The following commands import the images in the Docker daemon and push them into the registry:

cd [project_dir]/jenkins_agent_k8s_rock && rockcraft pack rockcraft.yaml
skopeo --insecure-policy copy oci-archive:jenkins-agent-k8s_1.1_amd64.rock docker-daemon:localhost:32000/jenkins-agent-k8s:latest
docker push localhost:32000/jenkins-agent-k8s:latest

Deploy

# Create a model
juju add-model jenkins-agent-k8s-dev
# Enable DEBUG logging
juju model-config logging-config="<root>=INFO;unit=DEBUG"
# Deploy the charm (assuming you're on amd64)
juju deploy ./jenkins-agent-k8s_ubuntu-22.04-amd64.charm \
  --resource jenkins-agent-k8s-image=localhost:32000/jenkins-agent-k8s:latest
