Description 

OpenDaylight's CI [1.] jobs are presently using Jenkins-job-builder (JJB) [2.] with the entire job configuration maintained as code in the releng/builder [3.], releng/global-jjb [4.] and common-packer [5.] repositories. The CI infrastructure has around 2k+ jobs that are written using yaml/shell/python many of which need to migrate to CI pipelines. The pipeline job prototype should be able to do a complete lifecycle (from code changes picked up from merged/staged job to be deployed and tested on containers images (these images are equivalent of VM image instance - mininet, devstack, etc presently built on the infrastructure). The work requires updating the packer files to build containers and converting the JJB/yaml code to CI pipelines.

...

Expected Outcome

• Create Dockerfiles and containers images for all of the ODL projectsfor all the VMs used in Jenkins (builder, robot, mininet, etc), also try to consolidate in few images (the less, the better).
• Create Jobs that manage build and maintain snapshots and releases for the containersBuildable container images using the packer files container images (e.g. verify, merge, release) from Dockerfiles.
• Migrate existing JJB jobs (VM based) to Jenkins pipeline jobs . (container based) - bonus)
