How do I build a CI/CD pipeline for Node exporter using Jenkins?

Building a CI/CD pipeline for Node Exporter using Jenkins involves several steps, from setting up your Jenkins environment to configuring your Node Exporter application for continuous integration and deployment. Below are the details on how to achieve this.

Step 1: Setup Jenkins

First, ensure that Jenkins is installed and running. You can download it from the Jenkins official website and install it on your server.

Step 2: Create a New Job

Log into Jenkins and create a new job by selecting "New Item." Choose "Pipeline" as the type of job.

Step 3: Configure Pipeline Script

In the pipeline configuration, add a script that defines your build steps. Below is an example of a Jenkins pipeline script for Node Exporter:

pipeline { agent any stages { stage('Checkout') { steps { git 'https://github.com/your-repo/node-exporter.git' } } stage('Build') { steps { sh 'npm install' sh 'npm run build' } } stage('Test') { steps { sh 'npm test' } } stage('Deploy') { steps { sh 'npm run deploy' } } } }

Step 4: Set Up Webhooks (Optional)

To trigger jobs on code changes automatically, set up webhooks in your version control system (e.g., GitHub, GitLab).

Step 5: Run the Pipeline

After configuring your pipeline, run it manually for the first time to ensure that all steps work correctly. Monitor the build output in Jenkins.
