Headless Continuous Integration Setup
Added 2020-06-30 06:21:50 +0000 UTCThis won't be super interesting for people wanting to see Kobold boobs but I think it's still worth talking about.
I was just running the CI machines near my workstation, hooked up to random monitors, but after a few power outages from the circuit breaker I needed to move things around.
Today, I've finally got them stowed away in the deepest chasms of my house (and most importantly onto a different breaker).
They're "headless" now, which means they have no conventional means to access them. You have to remote in or control them from various commands.
Using a combination of Jenkins, VNC Viewer, Remote Desktop, and SSH, I've got each machine still completely accessible and configurable. They'll be creating builds for KoboldKare for the foreseeable future!
An update post is up next, writing it now.

Thank you! I still need to figure out why the Mac machine auto unmounts the shared folder, but everything else is totally automated.
