Woodpecker is an open-source CI/CD server that allows you to automate your software development and deployment process. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Woodpecker on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before you install Woodpecker on Fedora CoreOS, you will need to have the following requirements:
The first step in installing Woodpecker is to install Docker.
To install Docker, run the following command:
sudo dnf -y install docker
After Docker has been installed, start the Docker service and enable it to start at boot time:
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker
Verify that Docker is running by executing the following command:
sudo systemctl status docker
Next, create a Docker network that Woodpecker will use to communicate with other Docker containers.
sudo docker network create woodpecker-net
With Docker installed and a network set up, pull the Woodpecker image from Docker Hub:
sudo docker pull cornelinux/woodpecker:latest
You can verify that the Woodpecker image has been downloaded by running the following command:
sudo docker images
Now that you have the Woodpecker image ready, it's time to run it as a Docker container.
sudo docker run -d --name=woodpecker -p 8050:8050 --network=woodpecker-net -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock cornelinux/woodpecker
This will start the Woodpecker container with the following options:
-d - run in detached mode--name - give the container a name-p - bind the container port to the host port--network - attach the container to the network-v - mount the Docker socket into the containerTo check if the container is running, use the command:
sudo docker ps
This command will show you the status of all running Docker containers.
Finally, after launching the Woodpecker container, you can access the web interface on your browser at the following address:
http://[hostname or IP address]:8050
Replace [hostname or IP address] with your server's hostname or public IP address.
You can also access the Woodpecker interface on your local machine by pointing your browser to:
http://localhost:8050
Conclusion
You have successfully installed Woodpecker on your Fedora CoreOS Latest server. Now you can automate your software development and deployment process using the Woodpecker CI/CD server.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
