GoCD is a continuous delivery and release management tool that is used to automate the entire software delivery process. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install GoCD on Ubuntu Server:
Before you start installing GoCD, it's important to update Ubuntu to the latest version. To do this, run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
GoCD requires Java to be installed on the system. The OpenJDK Java Development Kit is recommended for use with GoCD. To install Java, run the following command:
sudo apt install -y openjdk-8-jdk
To download and install the latest version of GoCD, run the following commands:
wget -qO - https://download.gocd.org/gocd.key | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://download.gocd.org /" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gocd.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y go-server go-agent
To start the GoCD server, run the following command:
sudo service go-server start
Once GoCD server is started, you can access the web interface by opening a web browser and navigating to http://<Server-IP>:8153. You will be prompted to create an admin account and set up other configurations.
To add the GoCD agent to the server, run the following command on the host where the agent will be installed:
echo 'deb https://download.gocd.org /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gocd.list
curl https://download.gocd.org/GOCD-GPG-KEY.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt update
sudo apt install go-agent
sudo /etc/init.d/go-agent start
That's it! You have successfully installed GoCD on Ubuntu Server. You can now use it for continuous delivery and release automation.
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!
