Running CI tasks locally

Since the pipeline uses Docker, it’s easy to:

• Debug what went wrong on your local machine.

• Test out a a tweak to your test.sh script before sending it out.

• Experiment against a new image before submitting your pull request.

All of these use cases are great reasons to essentially run what Jenkins does on your local machine.

Important

To do this you must have Docker installed on your machine.

1. docker run -it --mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",target=/slackboot-github springci/slackboot:latest /bin/bash

   This will launch the Docker image and mount your source code at spring-hateoas-github.

2. cd slackboot-github

   Next, run the test.sh script from inside the container:

3. ./mvnw package

Since the container is binding to your source, you can make edits from your IDE and continue to run build jobs.

Note	Docker containers can eat up disk space fast! From time to time, run docker system prune to clean out old images.
