Puppet Can i install jenkins on a puppet server using Git

Question

I am exploring Devops and a whole lot of tools that it offers and as a part of my journey i'm now into puppet.I'm curious to know if I could install Jenkins on my puppet server via Git? Any suggestions would be of great help!

Answer 1

Installing puppet-jenkins is easy.

To install via Git, all you need to do is clone a copy of the puppet-jenkins repository like so:

git clone git://github.com/rdegges/puppet-jenkins.git jenkins

That will clone puppet-jenkins into a folder named jenkins. Then you can simply copy that file over to your puppet module directory, usually:

cp -R jenkins /etc/puppet/modules/

And you are good to go!
