How to
By Snehasish Konger
Continuous Integration (CI): Developers merge code changes frequently, which are automatically tested. Continuous Deployment (CD): Code changes are automatically deployed to a production or test environment after the build stage.
1. Docker provides a consistent environment for development, testing, and production, eliminating the "it works on my machine" problem. 2. Enhances the reproducibility and portability of your React Native app.
1. Basic knowledge of React Native, Docker, and version control (Git). 2. Set up a Docker environment and have access to a CI/CD platform (e.g., Jenkins, CircleCI, GitHub Actions).
1. Create a Dockerfile in your React Native project root. 2. Specify the base image and include commands to copy your project files and install dependencies.
1. Choose a CI/CD platform like Jenkins, CircleCI, or GitHub Actions. 2. Configure the platform to watch your Git repository for changes.
Define build steps in your CI platform that include commands to build the Docker image and run tests. And Ensure that every code push triggers these automated tasks.
1. Set up deployment steps post-build success, such as pushing the Docker image to a registry and deploying to a server or cloud service. 2. Automate rollbacks in case of deployment failures.
1. Implement tests within your pipeline to run automatically. 2. Monitor the performance and stability of deployments through your CI/CD platform.
