Jira Sandbox Environment

Pre-conf

You need to add this hosts in your “hosts”-file:

# Docker Jira Sandbox
127.0.0.1  jira.internal
127.0.0.1  pgadmin.internal
127.0.0.1  nodered.internal
127.0.0.1  grafana.internal
127.0.0.1  prometheus.internal

If you are’t able to edit the “hosts”-file, use the ports..

Startup

docker-compose up -d

• Go to: http://pgadmin.internal
• Connect to Postgres database
• Create a database for Jira
• Goto: http://jira.internal
• Start setup Jira with the database you had created.

Update

docker-compose pull

Easy test of REST API…

Use NodeRed (http://nodered.internal) for mockups of your work / testing.
For example:

• Add “palette” for SMTP, so Jira can send mail
• Add “palette” for Dashboard, and show the status from JVM.
  (To easy view JVM: add jolokia-plugin for Jira.)

Monitoring Jira…

Use Prometheus to pick up data every 15sec from Jira.
Use Grafana to view the data that Prometheus picks up

Setup Grafana

• Go to: http://grafana.internal
• Login with: admin/admin
• Update the password.
• Pointout Prometheus as a Data Source
  • left side menu: Configuration / Data Sources
  • Add Prometheus
    • URL: http://prometheus:9090
    • Access: Server
  • Press: Save & test

Setup Prometheus

• In Jira: add the addon: “Prometheus Exporter For Jira”

    • /secure/PromForJiraSecureTokenConfigAction!default.jspa
