Experimental native types and providers

The semantics and API of these types should be considered unstable and almost certainly will change based on feedback. It is currently unclear if these types will be considered part of the public API or treated as private to the module.

Configuration

This family of types and providers that manages jenkins via the cli jar take common configuration from the parameters of a class named jenkins::cli::config. The implementation of this class may be empty. However, the version included in this module has provides some additional setup. The parameters used to override default values are:

  • cli_jar
  • url
  • ssh_private_key
  • puppet_helper
  • cli_tries
  • cli_try_sleep

An example of setting a non-default path to the ssh key used to authenticate the cli with jenkins are reducing the number of retry attempts.

class { 'jenkins::cli::config':
  ssh_private_key => '/home/vagrant/insecure_private_key',
  cli_tries       => 3,
  cli_try_sleep   => 1,
}

An example of setting an alternative port number and an addition of a prefix.

class { 'jenkins::cli::config':
  url => 'http://localhost:9999/awesome-jenkins',
}

These values may also be set via facts with the same name after the prefix jenkins_. Class parameters have precedence over fact values.

  • jenkins_cli_jar
  • jenkins_url
  • jenkins_ssh_private_key
  • jenkins_puppet_helper
  • jenkins_cli_tries
  • jenkins_cli_try_sleep

Configuration via facts is particularly convenient for testing via the resource face. For example:

export FACTER_jenkins_puppet_helper=/tmp/vagrant-puppet/modules-998ea1817cb4dea9c136a57fd18781c5/jenkins/files/puppet_helper.groov
export FACTER_jenkins_cli_tries=2
export FACTER_jenkins_ssh_private_key=/home/vagrant/insecure_private_key

puppet resource --modulepath=/tmp/vagrant-puppet/modules-998ea1817cb4dea9c136a57fd18781c5/ jenkins_user --debug --trace

All providers presently require java, the jenkins CLI jar, and the jenkins master service to be running. Most require the presence of puppet_helper.groovy. The following puppet code snippet will prepare a node sufficiently for all providers to function.

class { '::jenkins':
  install_java => true,
  cli          => true,
}
include ::jenkins::cli_helper

The ruby gem retries is presently required by all providers.

puppetserver

There is a known issue with puppetserver being unable to load code from modules outside of ./lib/puppet. This effects all modules using the recommended PuppetX::<vendor> namespace.

The work around (only required to use these new native types) is to edit /etc/puppetlabs/puppetserver/conf.d/puppetserver.conf and add the "cache" dir to the ruby-load-path entry. Eg.,

jruby-puppet: {
    ruby-load-path: [/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby, /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/lib]
    ...
}

See SERVER-973

Additionally, the retries gem is required. This may be installed on the master by running:

/opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppetserver gem install retries

Types

jenkins_authorization_strategy

jenkins_authorization_strategy { '<jenkins AuthorizationStrategy class name>':
  ensure    => 'present', # present | absent
  arguments => [],        # array of arguments to class constructor
}

"Anyone can do anything"

jenkins_authorization_strategy { 'hudson.security.AuthorizationStrategy$Unsecured':
  ensure => 'present',
}

"Github Commiter Authorization Strategy"

Provided by the github-oauth plugin.

jenkins_authorization_strategy { 'org.jenkinsci.plugins.GithubAuthorizationStrategy':
  ensure    => 'present',
  arguments => [
    'admin',
    true,
    false,
    false,
    lsst,
    false,
    false,
    false,
  ],
}

Order of arguments is:

  • adminUserNames
  • authenticatedUserReadPermission
  • useRepositoryPermissions
  • authenticatedUserCreateJobPermission
  • organizationNames
  • allowGithubWebHookPermission
  • allowCcTrayPermission
  • allowAnonymousReadPermission

XXX Would arguments be more convenient as a hash?

"Legacy mode"

XXX requires additional configuration???

jenkins_authorization_strategy { 'hudson.security.LegacyAuthorizationStrategy':
  ensure => 'present',
}

"Logged-in users can do anything"

jenkins_authorization_strategy { 'hudson.security.FullControlOnceLoggedInAuthorizationStrategy':
  ensure => 'present',
  }

"Matrix-based security"

XXX does not currently support configuring the access matrix -- this make it essentially unusable as setting this strategy will lock out the cli

jenkins_authorization_strategy { 'hudson.security.GlobalMatrixAuthorizationStrategy':
  ensure => 'present',
}

"Project-based Matrix Authorization Strategy"

XXX same issue as hudson.security.GlobalMatrixAuthorizationStrategy

jenkins_authorization_strategy { 'hudson.security.ProjectMatrixAuthorizationStrategy':
  ensure => 'present',
}

disabling any resource name is equivalent to setting hudson.security.AuthorizationStrategy$Unsecured

jenkins_authorization_strategy { 'hudson.security.FullControlOnceLoggedInAuthorizationStrategy':
  ensure => absent
}

jenkins_credentials

Note that unlike jenkins::credentials the resource name is the jenkins' id instead of the credentials' username. This is necessary as username is not unique event within a domain and not all credentials types have a username property.

jenkins_credentials { '<id>':
  ensure      => 'present', # present | absent
  description => 'description',
  domain      => undef,     # undef is the global domain; only allowed value
  impl        => '<jenkins credentials class short name>',
  password    => 'password',
  scope       => 'GLOBAL',  # GLOBAL | SYSTEM
  username    => 'username',
  passphrase  => '',        # currently buggy when unset
  private_key => '<ssh private key as string>',
}

  • impl

  • UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl

  • BasicSSHUserPrivateKey

  • FileCredentialsImpl

XXX This type has properties for other credentials classes that are not currently supported.

UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl

jenkins_credentials { 'my unique id':
  ensure      => 'present',
  description => 'account info for user bar',
  domain      => 'undef',
  impl        => 'UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl',
  password    => 'password',
  scope       => 'GLOBAL',
  username    => 'bar',
}

BasicSSHUserPrivateKey

jenkins_credentials { 'a0469025-1202-4007-983d-0c62f230f1a7':
  ensure      => 'present',
  description => 'ssh key for user foo',
  domain      => undef,
  impl        => 'BasicSSHUserPrivateKey',
  passphrase  => '',
  private_key => '-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- ...',
  scope       => 'GLOBAL',
  username    => 'foo',
}

FileCredentialsImpl

Using this credential type requires that the jenkins plain-credentials plugin has been installed.

jenkins_credentials { '150b2895-b0eb-4813-b8a5-3779690c063c':
  ensure      => 'present',
  description => 'secret string',
  domain      => undef,
  impl        => 'StringCredentialsImpl',
  scope       => 'SYSTEM',
  secret      => '42',
}

jenkins_job

jenkins_job { 'job name':
  ensure    => 'present', # present | absent
  enable    => true, # true | false
  config    => '<xml config string>',
  show_diff => true, # true | false
}

Has basic support for the cloudbees-folder plugin including automatically ordering parent folders before nested jobs.

XXX Note that enable is prefetched correctly but the value is ignored when syncing.

jenkins_job { 'myjob':
  ensure => 'present',
  config => '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><project>
  <actions/>
  <description/>
  <keepDependencies>false</keepDependencies>
  <properties>
    <com.sonyericsson.rebuild.RebuildSettings plugin="[email protected]">

    </com.sonyericsson.rebuild.RebuildSettings>
  </properties>
  <scm class="hudson.scm.NullSCM"/>
  <canRoam>true</canRoam>
  <disabled>false</disabled>
  <blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>false</blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>

</project>',
  enable => true,
}

jenkins_num_executors

jenkins_num_executors { 42: # name is coerced to Integer
  ensure => 'present', # present is the only allowed value
}

XXX Note that it is possible to declare this resource multiple times. Each instance will set the value.

jenkins_security_realm

"Delegate to servlet container"

jenkins_security_realm { 'hudson.security.LegacySecurityRealm':
  ensure => 'present',
}

"Github Authentication Plugin"

Provided by the github-oauth plugin.

jenkins_security_realm { 'org.jenkinsci.plugins.GithubSecurityRealm':
  ensure    => 'present',
  arguments => [
    'https://github.com',
    'https://api.github.com',
    'c4d1...',
    'a4ca...',
    'repo,read:org',
  ],
}

Order of arguments is:

  • githubWebUri
  • githubApiUri
  • clientID
  • clientSecret
  • oauthScopes

"Jenkins’ own user database"

jenkins_security_realm { 'hudson.security.HudsonPrivateSecurityRealm':
  ensure    => 'present',
  arguments => [true, false, undef],
}

Order of arguments is:

  • allowSignup
  • enableCaptcha

"LDAP"

unsupported

"Unix user/group database"

jenkins_security_realm { 'hudson.security.PAMSecurityRealm':
  ensure    => 'present',
  arguments => ['sshd'], # service name
}

jenkins_slaveagent_port

jenkins_slaveagent_port { 44444: # name is coerced to Integer
  ensure => 'present', # present is the only allowed value
}

XXX Note that it is possible to declare this resource multiple times. Each instance will set the value.

jenkins_user

jenkins_user { 'admin':
  ensure           => 'present',
  api_token_plain  => '29fedb889e8ccf649bfdada5d9e8c519',
  api_token_public => '03b99b3d93a5dc6193dbe7d97acaa0a6',
  email_address    => '[email protected]',
  full_name        => 'jenkins admin',
  password         => '#jbcrypt:$2a$10$wFyDgWYOHauojVfxiXWD3OTJMt6vE.j6eJol8uYMdZ5JrZ2lj9xny',
  public_keys      => ['ssh-rsa AAAA...'],
}
  • api_token_public

A read-only property; jenkins does not support setting the token

  • api_token_plain

The jenkins internal only value that is hashed to produce the public API token. This value can be set for a user by violating a private interface. This value may be discovered by using the puppet resource face.

  • password

May be a plain string but this will be non-idempotent. The hash string value may be discovered with the puppet resource face.

TODO

  • beaker/acceptance tests that exercise all types/providers

  • integrate types with existing DSL defined types

  • determine if these types should be a "public interface" or considered private to the module

  • rename some of the new puppet_helper.groovy methods for consistency and add descriptive comments to all methods

  • determine what to do about jenkins_job enable parameter which potentially breaks idempotency

  • test that the transition from authentication being required to disabled is properly handled

  • fix jenkins_credentials handling of a blank passphrase for BasicSSHUserPrivateKey
