Install and start Git on Linux

To install and start Git on Linux, you can follow these steps:

Check if Git is Already Installed:

First, check if Git is already installed on your Linux system by opening a terminal and running the following command:

git --version

If Git is already installed, you will see the version number. If not, you will need to install it.

Install Git:

To install Git on Linux, you can use the package manager specific to your distribution. Here are the commands for some popular package managers:

Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install git

Fedora:

sudo dnf install git

CentOS/RHEL:

sudo yum install git

Arch Linux:

sudo pacman -S git

Replace the package manager commands with the appropriate one for your Linux distribution.

Verify Installation:

After installation, verify that Git is now installed by running the version command again:

git --version

Configure Git:

Once Git is installed, you should configure your username and email address. Open a terminal and run the following commands, replacing "Your Name" and "your.email@example.com" with your actual name and email address:

git config --global user.name "Your Name"

git config --global user.email "your.email@example.com"

Start Using Git:

You can now start using Git on your Linux system. Navigate to the directory where you want to initialize a new Git repository or clone an existing one, and use Git commands as needed.

That's it! Git is now installed and ready to use on your Linux system. You can begin version controlling your projects and collaborating with others using Git.

Maven Create and Build Artifacts

In Maven, you can create and build artifacts using the package phase of the build lifecycle. The package phase is responsible for taking the compiled code and other project resources and packaging them into a distributable format, such as a JAR (Java Archive), WAR (Web Application Archive), or other custom formats. Here are the steps to create and build artifacts using Maven: Configure the Build Output: In your project's pom.xml file, you need to configure the output of the build. This includes specifying the type of artifact you want to create (e.g., JAR, WAR) and any additional resources to include. You do this in the <build> section of your pom.xml: <build>     <finalName>my-artifact</finalName> <!-- Name of the artifact without the extension -->     <plugins>         <!-- Plugin configurations for creating the artifact -->         <!-- For example, maven-jar-plugin or maven-war-plugin -->     </plugins> </build> Depend

Experiment No. 5 Title: Applying CI/CD Principles to Web Development Using Jenkins, Git, and Local HTTP Server

  Experiment No. 5 Title: Applying CI/CD Principles to Web Development Using Jenkins, Git, and Local HTTP Server  Objective: The objective of this experiment is to set up a CI/CD pipeline for a web development project using Jenkins, Git, and webhooks, without the need for a Jenkinsfile. You will learn how to automatically build and deploy a web application to a local HTTP server whenever changes are pushed to the Git repository, using Jenkins' "Execute Shell" build step. Introduction: Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) is a critical practice in modern software development, allowing teams to automate the building, testing, and deployment of applications. This process ensures that software updates are consistently and reliably delivered to end-users, leading to improved development efficiency and product quality. In this context, this introduction sets the stage for an exploration of how to apply CI/CD principles specifically to web development using J
