abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo

Pulls a git repository to a SAP BTP ABAP Environment system

Description

Pulls a git repository (Software Component) to a SAP BTP ABAP Environment system. Please provide either of the following options:

  • The host and credentials the BTP ABAP Environment system itself. The credentials must be configured for the Communication Scenario SAP_COM_0948.
  • The Cloud Foundry parameters (API endpoint, organization, space), credentials, the service instance for the ABAP service and the service key for the Communication Scenario SAP_COM_0948.
  • Only provide one of those options with the respective credentials. If all values are provided, the direct communication (via host) has priority.

Usage

We recommend to define values of step parameters via .pipeline/config.yml file.
In this case, calling the step is essentially reduced to defining the step name.
Calling the step can be done either in an orchestrator specific way (e.g. via a Jenkins library step) or on the command line.

abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo script: this

piper abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo

Prerequisites

A SAP BTP, ABAP environment system is available. On this system, a Communication User, a Communication System and a Communication Arrangement is setup for the Communication Scenario "Software Component Management Integration (SAP_COM_0948)". This can be done manually through the respective applications on the SAP BTP, ABAP environment system or through creating a service key for the system on Cloud Foundry with the parameters {"scenario_id": "SAP_COM_0948", "type": "basic"}. In a pipeline, you can do this with the step cloudFoundryCreateServiceKey. In addition, the software component should be cloned into the system instance. You can do this with the step abapEnvironmentCloneGitRepo.

Example: Configuration in the config.yml

The recommended way to configure your pipeline is via the config.yml file. In this case, calling the step in the Jenkinsfile is reduced to one line:

abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo script: this

If you want to provide the host and credentials of the Communication Arrangement directly, the configuration could look as follows:

steps:
  abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo:
    repositoryName: '/DMO/GIT_REPOSITORY'
    abapCredentialsId: 'abapCredentialsId'
    host: '1234-abcd-5678-efgh-ijk.abap.eu10.hana.ondemand.com'

However, we recommend to use a dedicated file, e.g. repositories.yml to specify the repositories to be pulled:

steps:
  abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo:
    repositories: 'repositories.yml'
    abapCredentialsId: 'abapCredentialsId'
    host: '1234-abcd-5678-efgh-ijk.abap.eu10.hana.ondemand.com'

The associated config file, e.g. repositories.yml could look as follows:

repositories:
- name: '/DMO/GIT_REPOSITORY'
  branch: 'main'
- name: '/DMO/GIT_REPO_COMMIT'
  branch: 'feature'
  commitID: 'cd87a3cac2bc946b7629580e58598c3db56a26f8'
- name: '/DMO/GIT_REPO_TAG'
  branch: 'realease'
  tag: 'myTag'

It is optional to provide a branch. However, if you also want to use this file for the abapEnvironmentCheckoutBranch step it is recommended to follow the above structure. If you want to pull a specific commit, either a commitID or a tag can be specified. If both are specified, the tag will be ignored.

If you want to read the host and credentials from the cloud foundry service key of the respective instance, the configuration could look as follows:

steps:
  abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo:
    repositoryName: '/DMO/GIT_REPOSITORY'
    cfCredentialsId: 'cfCredentialsId'
    cfApiEndpoint: 'https://test.server.com'
    cfOrg: 'cfOrg'
    cfSpace: 'cfSpace'
    cfServiceInstance: 'cfServiceInstance'
    cfServiceKeyName: 'cfServiceKeyName'

Example: Configuration in the Jenkinsfile

It is also possible to call the steps - including all parameters - directly in the Jenkinsfile. In the first example, the host and the credentialsId of the Communication Arrangement are directly provided.

abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo (
  script: this,
  repositoryName: '/DMO/GIT_REPOSITORY',
  CommitID: 'abcd1234'
  abapCredentialsId: 'abapCredentialsId',
  host: '1234-abcd-5678-efgh-ijk.abap.eu10.hana.ondemand.com'
)

In the second example, the host and credentialsId will be read from the provided Cloud Foundry service key of the specified service instance.

abapEnvironmentPullGitRepo (
  script: this,
  repositoryName: '/DMO/GIT_REPOSITORY',
  abapCredentialsId: 'cfCredentialsId',
  cfApiEndpoint: 'https://test.server.com',
  cfOrg: 'cfOrg',
  cfSpace: 'cfSpace',
  cfServiceInstance: 'cfServiceInstance',
  cfServiceKeyName: 'cfServiceKeyName'
)
