Jenkins build agent with the ability to install the npm keytar package for credential management. Builds on jenkins-nvm-agent and tucker01/jenkins-nvm-agent.
NOTE: This image must have the capability IPC_LOCK or run as privilaged to properly operate. This can be done on the run command by adding --cap-add ipc_lock or --privileged respectively. Not specifying this capability will result in the following messages when trying to start the gnome keyring daemon:
gnome-keyring-daemon: Operation not permitted
In general, nothing special will need to be done when connecting to the machine with the jenkins username and password.
If you have troubles accessing the keyring in the container you will most likely be seeing this error message:
** Message: Remote error from secret service: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface 'org.freedesktop.Secret.Collection' on object at path /org/freedesktop/secrets/collection/login
To correct this, issue the following console command before you attempt to access the keyring:
echo 'jenkins' | gnome-keyring-daemon -r -d --unlock
docker run jenkins-nvm-agent will start the container with the default Node.js version set in jenkins-nvm-agent Dockerfile.
See jenkins-nvm-agent README for details on setting Node.js version via environment variables.
