What Exactly is JCasC ?

This is a plugin that encodes all Jenkins settings and allows us to manage Jenkins settings without clicking on the GUI. This is quite advantageous when we have a fairly extensive configuration of our Jenkins, and it is especially useful in the case of a restore.

Environment

Let’s Start

Run sample full environment which can be found at this link

C:\Temp
λ git clone https://github.com/spy86/jenkins-as-code-docker-demo.git
C:\Temp
λ cd jenkins-as-code-docker-demo\
C:\Temp\jenkins-as-code-docker-demo (master -> origin)
λ vagrant up

After a while, the ready environment should start with Jenkins, and we can login into Jenkins. Open URL http://192.168.123.123:8089/ you should see one job SeedJob on the dashboard, and access for all options.
