Continuous Integration & Continuous Deployment: Automate Your Workflow!
This video is a recording of a student-led IT workshop for a software engineering course, providing a comprehensive introduction to CI/CD principles and the powerful Github Actions tool.
Topics Covered:
1. Introduction to CI/CD:
o Defining Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment
o Understanding the benefits of automated workflows for software development: Version-controlled infrastructure, faster release cycles, improved code quality, enhanced collaboration
2. CI/CD Pipeline:
o Breaking down the pipeline stages: Source, build, test, deploy
o Flexibility and customization of pipelines to fit specific project needs
3. History of CI/CD:
o Evolution from manual integration to cloud-based automation
o Emergence of tools like Travis CI and Github Actions
4. Github Actions:
o Github Actions as a native CI/CD tool
o Key components: Workflows, events, triggers, jobs, runners, and actions
o Benefits: Integration with Github, event-driven automation, high customizability
o Exploring the Github Action Marketplace for pre-built and custom actions
5. Practical Demonstrations:
o Creating a basic workflow YAML file
o Understanding job dependencies and parallel vs. sequential execution
o Utilizing the checkout action for cloning repositories within workflows
o Setting up triggers based on events like push and pull requests
o Interactive quiz to test understanding of workflow concepts
o Step-by-step demonstration of building a CI/CD pipeline:
Building and testing a simple FastAPI application
Creating a Docker image and pushing to Docker Hub
Deploying the Docker image to an AWS instance using Github Actions
6. Using CI/CD for the Class Project:
o Discussion on potential applications of Github Actions for the Raspberry Pi kiosk project
o Exploring tools like Kubernetes, microKubernetes, and Argo CD for container orchestration and automated deployments
