Add support for Linux pipelines

jfalameda commented 5 years ago

Hi,

This is a feature request. At the moment it is quite cumbersome to deploy linux service fabric applications.

Specifically tasks such as ServiceFabricUpdateManifests would be great to have them written in python or bash.

Kind Regards, José.

@bishal-pdMSFT @kmkumaran We're also running into this issue as part of moving our CI/CD processes to linux-based VMs. Is there any update to this issue, or any indication of when it might be re-assessed?

@pulkitaggarwl can you please track this feature request

Dealing with the same issue here. I had to stand up a windows build agent just to use this task.

Hi,

I don't think Microsoft is ever gonna release this, to be frank. This has been requested in different forums for more than two years. I have some experience with SFCL and I have built some bash scripts to do the same thing. If you are up to it we can gather the requirements for such a task and develop a third-party task. Would anybody of you be interested in collaborating?

@jfalameda I completely understand your sentiment here. Unfortunately, we have not been tied down by other items and I acknowledge we couldn't prioritise this one.
Having said that, I wanted to call out that we are privileged to have active community members such as yourself who are willing to take a lead and contribute.

Here is some pointers that might come in handy. cc: @bishal-pdMSFT

Deploy to linux SF clusters using linux agents:

Run: sudo pip install sfctl
Add cluster endpoint, certificate and password information as secure variables in RD
If certificate is pfx type, save the secure variable value of certificate in a pfs file and convert PFX to PEM using:
- openssl pkcs12 -in certificate.pfx -out mycert.pem -nodes
Write a script using SFCTL to connect to cluster using secure variables defined in RD:
- sfctl cluster select --endpoint $(EndpointUrlSecureVariable) --pem ./mycert.pem --no-verify
Deploy using SFCTL to the linux cluster:
- sfctl application upload --path ~/app_package_dir
- sfctl application provision --application-type-build-path app_package_dir
- sfctl application create --app-name fabric:/TestApp --app-type TestAppType --app-version 1.0
