Install and configure Jenkins

Install and configure Jenkins on AWS and create a job for the current Nightfall repositories.
Installation/configuration steps:

• Install the app;
• Install/configure plugins;
• Enable Jenkins data backup;
• Create admin credentials;
• Add system admin e-mail ([email protected]);
• Configure a proper domain for access Jenkins (e.g. jenkins.nightfall.com) only via VPN (Internal);
• Install/Configure github Jenkins credentials;
• Configure HTTPS:
  • Create selfsigned certificate;
  • Disable HTTP.
• Create team credentials via Github webhook (for the moment only @druiz0992 and I have full access);
• Configure job for nightfall3 repository.

Jenkins is now installed, it can be accessed through the URL http://10.48.1.56:8080
One should be connected to the VPN (Internal) to be successful.

The details about the instance running on EC2 can be seen here: https://us-east-2.console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/v2/home?region=us-east-2#InstanceDetails:instanceId=i-0944438bb6b1d3220

The S3 Bucket is now created for accommodate the Jenkins data backup: nightfall-cicd-backup
The Jenkins plugin Periodic Backup will manage the backup. Following the current configuration for the periodic backup, only the last 7 days will be kept on the bucket and the backup will happen everyday about 00:00.

The backup was tested successfully!

Jenkins is now accessible via the following URL:
http://jenkins.polygon-nightfall.technology:8080

I still need to manage to do it accessible only via HTTPS.

Jenkins is now available to the team members and the authentication is being done via Github.

Jenkins is now configured with a job for Nightfall3, but it is still unable to build it, since it needs a Jenkinsfile properly configured with the current Nightfall actions that are done on Github Actions.
