XNGMacBuildNodeSetup
These are the ansible playbooks we use to configure our Mac machines for usage with Jenkins CI. They are used as nodes and need to install the following tools:
- Homebrew
- Ruby
- ios-sim (for use with ISRakel)
- Java (because JNLP needs Java to connect to our master Jenkins)
So as you can guess we have one master (Linux) which the Mac OS X nodes connect to via JNLP.
Setup of the master is not covered by this repository.
In addition to installing tools it also does the following:
- Installs Xcode using Xcode::Install
- Configures monit which monitors the JNLP process and restarts it if goes down.
Installing ansible
To install ansible simply run:
$ brew install ansibleRunning the playbook
1. Add your nodes:
You can cluster nodes, e.g. [macpros]. Each node gets a name, we usually use macpro<ip_address> and an ansible_ssh_host which is the actual IP address of this node.
# inventory
[macpros]
macpro1 ansible_ssh_host=191.168.178.23
macpro2 ansible_ssh_host=191.168.178.242. Configure the node specific variables
Please note that each host has its own configuration in its own folder.
# host_vars/macpro1/main.yml
