Pull requests are a staple of open source software. Someone finds a bug or inefficiency within a section of code, and they can submit a “pull request” through Git to the repository owner. The owner can compare the new code versus the original, and if they agree it’s better off with the new code, it’s in. Sounds like an open and shut case for high quality, right?
Git is a version control system widely used by organizations and millions of developers worldwide to securely and consistently manage their private codebases. In many cases, businesses adopt open-source projects for their infrastructure and library requirements. Given the convenience, it’s not an overstatement to say that we stand on the shoulders of giants. In many cases though, depending on the open-source library, it’s not always enough.
In this blog post, I will show you an easy way to use your InfluxDB Cloud account plus a Docker container from my Docker Hub account to easily keep an eye on a set of GitHub repositories using the Template feature built into the new version of InfluxDB Cloud.
Using GitOps on Kubernetes means all your changes are reviewed and recorded, so you can move more quickly because everything is automated and you know all changes are easy to undo. Exposing your GitOps flow in chat means all the information you need is at your fingertips. How do you GitChatOps, or is it ChatGitOps? Here's how we do it.
John Turner from Bento for Business explains how to use GitHub's Deploy Keys feature and an SSH key to scope access from outside parties to a single repo, and limit that access to Read or Write.
The monolith is crumbling. Most organizations are moving from a small number of large applications to a large number of relatively small applications. Benefits include the ability to deploy small pieces of functionality without a risky big bang and the ability to experiment with new technologies with limited risk. But every advance creates new problems. All those repositories are hard to keep track of. Most organizations lack understanding of what technologies they're using and how.
See an extended version of the classic status checks Bitrise sends back to GitHub, including Bitrise build summary and a check status.
Persist Kubernetes resource changes to Git Atomist makes deploying to Kubernetes easy in a way that is already largely consistent with GitOps best practices. There was one major part of GitOps missing: having the desired state of your system versioned in Git.
