Mulder Workshop

Mulder is the Backend API component used for the workshop. It is written in Go and has a dependency on a Redis database.

The goal of the workshop is to import this repository into your Jenkins X cluster, and do the necessary changes to "make it work" - both inside the Preview Environments and the staging/production environments.

We will play with the following tools:

• jx - the Jenkins X CLI - of course
• Jenkins
• Github
• Git
• Go
• Makefile
• Jenkinsfile pipeline
• Helm
• Kubernetes API
• kubectl - Kubernetes CLI

You don't need to master all of these tools. But we'll need to touch a little of each, see how they interact, and where to find documentation.

Ready? Let's start!

• First, import Mulder in Jenkins X
• Then, we'll need to add Redis as a dependency to make it work
• We will also setup and run the unit & integration tests
• And finish with a few (optional) extra steps - including deploying to production

At the end, you should have a fully functional CI/CD pipeline with a safety net - the automated tests - so it's time to move to Scully!
