Prerequisites

  • Set up Jenkins as a continuous integration system in your Spinnaker deployment.
  • Enable the artifactsRewrite feature flag in Spinnaker. In ~/.hal/$DEPLOYMENT/profiles/settings-local.js (where $DEPLOYMENT is typically default), add the line window.spinnakerSettings.feature.artifactsRewrite = true;.

  4. Select a Jenkins master from the Master drop-down menu, then select a job from the Job drop-down.
