Ansible for administering Jenkins

[g***@gmail.com]

Hi,

Can we administer Jenkins using Ansible scripts? If so, any pointers or
can I get some sample scripts?

Thanks for the link Samuli. I found this link. But, am looking for a
playbook to maintain the groups created and authenticated through Manage
and Assign Roles (Role based authorization strategy).

JCasC might be a good way of automating it
- https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Configuration+as+Code+Plugin

There are some examples about configuring the Roles:
- https://github.com/jenkinsci/configuration-as-code-plugin/blob/master/integrations/src/test/resources/io/jenkins/plugins/casc/RoleStrategy1.yml
- https://github.com/jenkinsci/configuration-as-code-plugin/blob/master/integrations/src/test/resources/io/jenkins/plugins/casc/RoleStrategy2.yml

You can easily run the CLI, once installed the JCasC plugin to validate and
apply the above configuration on the fly!
- <YOUR_JENKINS_URL>/cli/command/apply-configuration
- <YOUR_JENKINS_URL>/cli/command/check-configuration


And on the top of that if you'd like to use ansible you could write your
own playbook/role to use it as wrapper

My 2 cents
