Afternoon, ya'll.

It's a #Seattle / Puget Sound local focused instance, which I have been graciously allowed to help moderate by @Finn . We hope to turn it into a coop once we have enough interested members.
Good evening!

Hi! Morning reminder that I am moving some 95% of my fediverse presence to pnathan @ social.seattle.wa.us.
So I'm pondering how to figure out a way to get credentials into jenkins via cooking the credentials.xml files prior to bringup.
this shouldn't be this hard.
and yes.
Jenkins is old tech, and very Java Enterprise coding. Not a good thing. I like it, because it is flexible. But it's not well adapted for cloud work with proper automated bringup.
I've spent days looking at automating installing credentials post-bring up. But the CSRF protection system is... not designed for automation. Nor is there a RPC system for within-process environment (within-pod) for injecting secure information.
Digressive note:
I think that it'd be much closer to technically well done to roll up all needed functionality into your k8s cluster (logs, monitoring, builds, etc) without relying on cloud facilities (i.e., build your own cloud in k8s). But this requires substantial technical investment, documentation, and hiring. Probably a good +5 on your SRE team. And, worse, is this something *interesting*? Can you retain people for this?
Banging away on how to build a fully automated #Jenkins, including credential injection on bringup.
Fully automated bringup, including secrets, is one of the fiddlier bits of #SRE work. If you're on AWS, AWS IAM and SecretsManager serve as the trust root....
... but not everything integrates with that! Such as Jenkins.
One of the things businesses like a lot today is outsourcing, which is what Cloud is, particularly AWS. So here we are.

4-5 weeks of depression, visitors, and gastroenteritis threw my healthy living thing for a loop. Today I was able to cook breakfast (greens), have a healthy lunch, and lift weights. Haven't lifted for a month. I am going to hurrrt tomorrow. I will, consequently, need to do some light workout to deal with it.
Rode the ebike to the gym (as opposed to the bus). It's a blast, and was very nice at this hour, since the bus doesn't run much.... But also, driving among cars still scares me.

I did some research myself: the billionaire has donated some 50K to 45's PACs.
It's tiring, but realize the facists are here in Seattle.
