Introduction

For Dockerized Jenkins, we can use the following method to store/get sensitive data from AWS SSM instead of hardcoding it in Docker file

Store secret in AWS SSM:

aws ssm put-parameter –name “artifactory_password” –value “thisisapassword” –type “String”

In Dockerfile:

COPY settings.xml /etc/maven/settings.xml

COPY jenkins-slave /home/jenkins
RUN chmod -R 755 /home/jenkins/jenkins-slave

In settings.xml

<settings xmlns=”http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0″ xmlns:xsi=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance” xsi:schemaLocation=”http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd”>
  <servers>
    <server>
      <id>artifactory_password</id>
      <username>username</username>
      <password>blank</password>
    </server>

</servers>
  <pluginGroups> <pluginGroup>com.amashchenko.maven.plugin.ondeck</pluginGroup>
  </pluginGroups>
</settings>

In jenkins-slave
