Jenkinsfile for SAPUI5 or SAP Fiori Development on SAP Cloud Platform

The Jenkinsfile in this folder is part of project "Piper". It will help you to implement a Continuous Integration pipeline for SAPUI5 development in Jenkins. The pipeline includes building and deploying the application to SAP Cloud Platform.

To use it, you need to provide the following files for which templates are available in the GitHub repository of this project into the root folder of your SAPUI5 or SAP Fiori application (parallel to the webapp folder):

  • .pipeline/config.properties: Holds properties needed for building the pipeline, for example proxy settings (if needed), and connection data for SAP Cloud Platform. Enter the values specific for your project (see also the tool installation steps below).
  • .npmrc: Defines npm config settings, e.g. registries for downloading npm packages.
  • Gruntfile.js: Contains the tasks executed in the build (linting, minification and preload generation). This file does not need to be changed.
  • package.json: Contains the metadata of your application as npm project. You must maintain the application name and version here.
  • mta.yaml: Contains the metadata of the MTA package to be deployed. You must maintain the application name and version here.

Prerequisites

To run the Jenkinsfile, you need to configure the shared library in your Jenkins master. This library contains step and utility implementations that are required in the pipeline.

Some additional tools must be installed on the build node. These are:

  • Java JRE 1.8.0. Environment variable JAVA_HOME needs to be set.
  • Node.js and npm.
  • The MTA Archive Builder, version 1.0.6 or higher. You may download it from SAP ONE Support Launchpad: navigate to Software Downloads, search for MTA Archive Builder and download the newest version. Install it on the build machine (or build node). The Jar archive must have the name mta.jar. Provide the directory where it is installed as property MTA_HOME in .pipeline/config.properties.
  • The SAP Cloud Platform Neo command line client. Get version 3.39.10 or newer from (http://central.maven.org/maven2/com/sap/cloud/neo-java-web-sdk) and unpack the zip file to a location on the build machine. Provide the unpacked directory as property NEO_HOME in .pipeline/config.properties.

For automatic deployment of the application to the SAP Cloud Platform account, logon credentials are needed. Maintain them in the central Jenkins configuration (Manage Jenkins > Credentials). Provide the credentials ID as property neoCredentialsId in .pipeline/config.properties.

Pipeline Stages

The pipeline consists of the following stages:

Pipeline Stages

Stage: Clone Sources and Setup Environment

In this stage the pipeline initializes the pipeline environment, fetches the application sources, and reads the .pipeline/config.properties. All of the following stages depend on this initial stage. If you plan to modify the pipeline, keep this stage at the beginning.

Stage: Validate Configuration

This stage checks the configuration that is required for the subsequent pipeline stages.

Stage: Validate Installations

This stage checks for the tools that are required for the pipeline. The pipeline configuration allows you to specify the location of these tools.

Stage: Build Fiori App

This stage builds the SAPUI5 application, i.e., it creates an mtar archive of the application that can be deployed to SAP Cloud Platform. See the mtaBuild step documentation for details and prerequisites.

Stage: Deploy Fiori App

This stage deploys the application to the SAP Cloud Platform account, using DEPLOY_HOST, CI_DEPLOY_ACCOUNT and neoCredentialsId from .pipeline/config.properties. See the neoDeploy step documentation for details and prerequisites.
