How to achieve automated deployment when setting up Jenkins?

To achieve automated deployment with Jenkins, you can follow these steps:

1. Install Jenkins: First, you need to install Jenkins on your server. You can download the appropriate Jenkins installation package based on your operating system and follow the official documentation for installation. Once installation is complete, you can access the Jenkins console through a web browser.
2. Setting up Jenkins: When accessing the Jenkins console for the first time, you will need to enter the administrator password to unlock Jenkins. Then, you can follow the prompts to install plugins. Once the installation is complete, you can create an admin user and make other configurations, such as setting up global tools and global environment variables.
3. Create a Jenkins task: In the Jenkins console, you can set up a new task for automated deployment. Click on “New Item”, select “Freestyle project” and give the task a name.
4. Set up source code management: In the “Source Code Management” section of the task configuration page, you need to choose a code hosting platform (such as Git, SVN, etc.) and fill in the corresponding repository URL, as well as authentication information (such as username, password).
5. Set up build triggers: In the “Build Triggers” section of the task configuration page, you can choose how to trigger the build, such as through scheduling, specific events, or remote builds.
6. Configure build steps: In the “Build” section of the task configuration page, you can define the specific steps of the build process. For example, you can choose to run a Shell script, invoke Ant, Maven builds, etc.
7. Subsequent actions configuration: In the “Subsequent actions” section of the task configuration page, you can define the actions to be executed after a successful or failed build. For example, you can send emails, publish build reports, or deploy to remote servers.
8. Save and build: Once you have completed the task configuration, click on the “Save” button. Then, you can manually trigger the build or wait for Jenkins to automatically trigger the build based on the triggers you have configured.

By following the above steps, you can achieve automated deployment with Jenkins. You can configure tasks based on your actual needs to meet your deployment automation requirements.
