Summary

Migrate from GitPod to GitHub Codespaces as the primary cloud development environment. GitPod's free tier has sunset (10h/month), while Codespaces offers 60h/month free tier.

Changes

New Codespaces Configuration

  • .devcontainer/devcontainer.json - Dev container with Docker-in-Docker and GitHub CLI
  • .devcontainer/setup.sh - Automated setup (installs yq, configures URLs, creates welcome message)
  • .devcontainer/README.md - Troubleshooting guide
  • dockerfiles/codespacesURL.sh - URL configuration for Codespaces environment

Documentation Updates

  • README.md - Added Codespaces quick start, marked GitPod as legacy
  • CODESPACES_MIGRATION_PLAN.md - Complete migration strategy and timeline
  • .github/dependabot.yml - Disabled GitPod updates, documented Codespaces approach

Configuration Improvements

  • docker-compose.yaml - Set default empty values for GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL (suppress warnings)
  • .gitignore - Added CLAUDE.md, CONTEXT.md, and .devcontainer/welcome.txt

Key Features

  • Automatic Setup: yq installation, URL configuration, and welcome message on every terminal
  • Port Management: Automated port 8080 visibility setting via gh CLI
  • Browser Integration: Opens Jenkins in regular browser (not VS Code preview to avoid iframe issues)
  • Dual Support: Maintains backward compatibility with GitPod during transition
  • Free Tier: 60 hours/month vs GitPod's 10 hours/month

Testing

Tested in GitHub Codespaces:

  • ✅ Dev container builds successfully
  • ✅ Docker-in-Docker works
  • ✅ Welcome message displays on terminal
  • ✅ Port forwarding works (with manual public visibility setting)
  • ✅ Jenkins accessible via forwarded URL
  • ✅ All tutorial profiles work (tested maven)

Known Issues

  • Port 8080 may default to private on first Codespace creation
  • Manual step required: Right-click port 8080 → Port Visibility → Public
  • Documented in .devcontainer/README.md

Migration Impact

  • Users: Can choose Codespaces or GitPod (dual support maintained)
  • Documentation: Updated to recommend Codespaces as primary option
  • Automation: GitPod Dependabot updates disabled (legacy platform)

Follow-up

After successful testing and merge:

  • Update jenkins.io tutorials documentation to reference Codespaces
  • Monitor Codespaces usage and feedback
  • Consider deprecating GitPod config in future (after 6-12 months)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Ready-to-use Codespaces dev environment with preinstalled tooling, auto-setup, forwarded ports, startup welcome + access guidance, and automated Jenkins URL handling.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Prevents failures when workspace URL variables are unset during Docker Compose runs.
  • Documentation
    • README expanded for Codespaces (GitPod marked legacy), detailed migration plan, troubleshooting, and access instructions including port visibility notes.
  • Chores
    • Automation to keep devcontainer tooling versions current and updated ignore list for local dev files.

Add comprehensive GitHub Codespaces configuration to replace GitPod
as the primary cloud development environment (GitPod free tier has sunset).

Changes:
- Add .devcontainer/devcontainer.json with Docker-in-Docker and GitHub CLI
- Add .devcontainer/setup.sh for automated environment setup
- Add dockerfiles/codespacesURL.sh for Codespaces URL configuration
- Add CODESPACES_MIGRATION_PLAN.md with detailed migration strategy
- Update README.md with Codespaces quick start and instructions
- Update .gitignore for local development files
- Set default empty values for GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL to suppress warnings

Features:
- Automatic yq installation for YAML processing
- Port forwarding for Jenkins (8080) with public visibility
- Environment-aware URL configuration using CODESPACE_NAME
- Maintains backward compatibility with GitPod configuration
- 60 hours/month free tier (sufficient for all tutorials)
- Welcome message displayed on every terminal session

The migration maintains dual support for both Codespaces and GitPod
during the transition period, allowing users to choose their preferred
environment.
Configure setup script to append welcome message to .bashrc so it
displays automatically on every new terminal session in Codespaces.

This is more reliable than postStartCommand which doesn't always
show output in the terminal.
Add gh CLI command to automatically set port 8080 to public during setup.
Create .devcontainer/README.md with manual steps for port visibility.

The devcontainer.json visibility setting doesn't reliably work, so we now:
1. Attempt automatic setting via gh CLI in setup.sh
2. Provide clear manual steps in README if automation fails

This addresses the persistent issue where ports default to private
even with visibility: public in devcontainer.json.
Change onAutoForward from 'openPreview' to 'openBrowser' to avoid
preview pane issues with Jenkins security headers.

The VS Code preview shows 'Please reopen the preview' due to Jenkins
X-Frame-Options headers. Opening in a regular browser tab works fine.

Updated README to clarify this behavior.
Add note that GitPod is legacy (free tier sunset) and we've migrated
to GitHub Codespaces. Disable Dependabot monitoring of GitPod image
updates by setting open-pull-requests-limit to 0.

Codespaces uses devcontainer.json which cannot be monitored by
Dependabot (not a Dockerfile). Manual updates as needed.

Summary of Changes

Hello @gounthar, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request marks a significant shift in the project's recommended cloud development environment, moving from GitPod to GitHub Codespaces. The change is primarily motivated by the differing free tier offerings of the two platforms. The PR introduces a comprehensive set of configurations for Codespaces, including a dev container definition, automated setup scripts, and updated documentation to guide users. It also ensures a smooth transition by maintaining backward compatibility with GitPod and clearly outlining the migration strategy.

Highlights

  • Migration to GitHub Codespaces: The project is transitioning from GitPod to GitHub Codespaces as the primary cloud development environment, driven by GitPod's free tier limitations and Codespaces' more generous offering.
  • New Codespaces Configuration: Introduces a '.devcontainer' directory with 'devcontainer.json' for environment definition, 'setup.sh' for automated setup (installing 'yq', configuring URLs, welcome message), and a 'README.md' for troubleshooting.
  • Automated URL Configuration: A new script 'dockerfiles/codespacesURL.sh' dynamically configures Jenkins URLs for Codespaces environments, ensuring correct access and suppressing warnings.
  • Documentation Updates: 'README.md' is updated to prioritize Codespaces, include a quick-start badge, and detail its benefits, while marking GitPod as legacy. A 'CODESPACES_MIGRATION_PLAN.md' is also added.
  • Dependabot Configuration: 'dependabot.yml' is updated to disable GitPod-related dependency updates, reflecting its legacy status.
  • Backward Compatibility: 'docker-compose.yaml' is adjusted to gracefully handle the 'GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL' variable, allowing for continued dual support during the transition.

A hop, a tap, the devbox wakes,
Ports unroll like tasty flakes,
I nudge the scripts, I tweak the YAML flow,
URLs beam where the pipelines go,
Jenkins hums — carrots for show. 🥕🐇

Code Review

This pull request successfully migrates the project's cloud development environment from GitPod to GitHub Codespaces, which is a significant improvement. The new Codespaces configuration is well-documented and includes a robust setup script. The changes to maintain backward compatibility with GitPod are also well-implemented. My review includes a few suggestions to enhance the maintainability and robustness of the new configuration, primarily by pinning dependency versions and using environment variables instead of hardcoded paths. Overall, this is a high-quality contribution.

For better reproducibility and to avoid unexpected breaking changes from automatic updates, it's a best practice to pin the versions of dev container features instead of using latest. You can find the latest stable versions on the respective feature's GitHub page.

To ensure reproducible builds and prevent unexpected issues from automatic updates, it's recommended to pin the version of yq being installed rather than fetching latest.

Instead of hardcoding the workspace path, it's more robust to use the $GITHUB_WORKSPACE environment variable, which is provided by GitHub Codespaces. This makes the script more portable. Using single quotes for the echo commands will ensure the variable is written to .bashrc literally and expanded upon sourcing the file.

To make this script more robust and portable, consider using the $GITHUB_WORKSPACE environment variable instead of a hardcoded path. This variable is available in Codespaces and points to the root of the workspace.

You can simplify this file update by using yq's in-place editing feature (-i or --inplace), similar to how you use it on line 63. This avoids creating and moving a temporary file.

yq eval ".unclassified.location.url = \"$service_url/\"" "$config_file" > "$config_file.tmp" && mv "$config_file.tmp" "$config_file"

Empty default for GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL: verify downstream tolerance.

Setting ${GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL:-} prevents compose warnings. Ensure all consumers handle empty string safely (no assumptions of non-empty).

Optionally centralize via an anchor or env_file to avoid repetition.

Guard against empty GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL or supply a default

  • dockerfiles/gitpodURL.sh (line 7) extracts service_url from GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL—if empty this yields an invalid URL; add a fallback value or exit with an error.
  • build-docker-compose.yaml still uses bare ${GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL} (lines 122, 144, 167, 190); mirror the :- default there or consolidate via an env_file/anchor.
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In docker-compose.yaml around line 200, the GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL environment
variable is currently set without a safe default which can lead to an empty
value being propagated; update this to use a fallback like
${GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL:-https://gitpod.io} or another appropriate default (or
change to fail-fast by validating and exiting) so downstream scripts get a valid
URL; additionally, update build-docker-compose.yaml occurrences at lines 122,
144, 167, and 190 to mirror the same default syntax or consolidate the variable
via an env_file or an anchored YAML value so all references are consistently
guarded; also add a defensive check in dockerfiles/gitpodURL.sh (line 7) to exit
with a clear error if GITPOD_WORKSPACE_URL is empty or to use the same fallback
before extracting service_url.

- Pin yq version to v4.44.3 with curl fallback
- Pin devcontainer features (Docker 27.0, gh CLI 2.62)
- Add shell safety flags (set -Eeuo pipefail)
- Replace hardcoded paths with git rev-parse
- Improve variable quoting throughout scripts
- Add validation checks (yq exists, gh authenticated)
- Enhance error handling in all scripts

Addresses all valid suggestions from AI reviewers (CodeRabbitAI and Gemini).
- Add updatecli manifest for yq, Docker, and GitHub CLI versions
- Update dependabot.yml to reference UpdateCLI for Codespaces deps
- Clarify port visibility is not blocking access in README
- Document that private ports work for Codespace owners

UpdateCLI will now automatically create PRs when new versions
of devcontainer dependencies are available.

11-16: Add CLI fallback for setting port visibility.

Offer an alternative using gh CLI (useful when UI label is misleading).

  ### Manual Steps (if needed for sharing):
  1. Open the **PORTS** panel at the bottom of VS Code (next to TERMINAL)
  2. Find port **8080** in the list
  3. **Right-click** on port 8080
  4. Select **Port Visibility** → **Public**
+
+Alternatively (CLI):
+
+```bash
+# From the Codespace terminal
+gh codespace ports visibility 8080:public -c $CODESPACE_NAME
+```

44-47: Shell note for non-bash users.

Codespaces often uses bash, but add zsh note to reduce confusion.

29-43: Optional: sanity-check Docker tag existence aligns with devcontainer feature.

You’re checking Docker Hub tag docker:<major.minor>. The devcontainer feature maps its "version" to Docker Engine; however, Docker Hub tags sometimes differ (e.g., patch vs minor-only). If flakes occur, consider checking a known tag pattern (e.g., <major.minor>.0) or validating against the feature’s supported versions list.

31-33: Add security warning for default Jenkins credentials

  • In .devcontainer/README.md lines 31–33: “admin/admin” is insecure if port 8080 is exposed publicly; warn users to keep the port private or change credentials before sharing.
  • Confirm that the tutorial image actually uses admin/admin as its default login.

The dockerhub-image-exists condition was missing the required
sourceid attribute, causing UpdateCLI validation to fail.

Tested locally with updatecli diff - manifest now works correctly
and detects available updates:
- yq: v4.44.3 → v4.48.1
- Docker: 27.0 → 28.5
- GitHub CLI: 2.62 → 2.81.0

The manifest will run successfully once this PR is merged to main.

56-65: Good fix: sourceid added to condition resolves UpdateCLI error.

This addresses the prior pipeline failure (“empty 'sourceid'”). Looks correct.

🧹 Nitpick comments (2)
updatecli/updatecli.d/codespaces.yaml (2)

77-96: Prefer structured updates over regex for devcontainer.json.

Regex works but is brittle. Consider UpdateCLI’s JSON target to set:

  • features["ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/docker-in-docker:2"].version
  • features["ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/github-cli:1"].version

This avoids regex drift if formatting changes.


97-105: Optional: add automerge or body to PR action.

If desired, enable automerge for routine bumps and/or add a brief body template to aid reviewers.

66-76: yq version replacement verified: the regex matches the single YQ_VERSION default in .devcontainer/setup.sh and preserves the leading v.


29-43: Confirm devcontainer feature accepts major.minor version
The docker-version transformer normalizes tags to major.minor (e.g. “27.3” from “27.3.1”) and injects that into the Docker-in-Docker feature’s version field—please verify the feature accepts a major.minor value as valid input.

Fixed three pattern matching issues:
1. yq pattern: Added missing closing brace '}' before final quote
2. Docker pattern: Simplified to match line-by-line with search filter
3. GitHub CLI pattern: Simplified to match line-by-line with search filter

Tested locally - all targets now detect updates correctly:
- ⚠ [yq-setup-script] v4.44.3 → v4.48.1
- ⚠ [docker-feature-version] 27.0 → 28.5
- ⚠ [github-cli-feature-version] 2.62 → 2.81.0
Replaced echo with printf for lines containing ANSI color codes
to improve portability across different shells.

Fixes Codacy warnings:
- Line 44: echo → printf for color formatting
- Line 45: echo → printf with proper format string
- Line 51: echo → printf in loop with format placeholders

The echo command's handling of escape sequences is not
standardized across shells. printf is the portable solution
and is recommended by POSIX for formatted output.

39-52: Nice: switched to printf for ANSI output and added strict mode.

This resolves earlier concerns about echo/escapes and improves robustness.

🧹 Nitpick comments (4)
dockerfiles/codespacesURL.sh (4)

8-9: Prefer $GITHUB_WORKSPACE first; fall back to git/pwd.

More robust in Codespaces, avoids git dependency when possible.

-REPO_ROOT="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)"
-config_file="${REPO_ROOT}/dockerfiles/jenkins.yaml"
+if [ -n "${GITHUB_WORKSPACE:-}" ]; then
+  REPO_ROOT="${GITHUB_WORKSPACE}"
+else
+  REPO_ROOT="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)"
+fi
+config_file="${REPO_ROOT}/dockerfiles/jenkins.yaml"

18-23: Use printf consistently (replace remaining echo).

For consistency and to satisfy shell linters, prefer printf everywhere.

-    echo "✅ Detected GitHub Codespaces environment"
+    printf "✅ Detected GitHub Codespaces environment\n"
-    echo "ℹ️  Running in local environment"
+    printf "ℹ️  Running in local environment\n"

-    echo "⚠️  Warning: Jenkins configuration file not found at ${config_file}"
-    echo "   Configuration will be done when Jenkins starts."
+    printf "⚠️  Warning: Jenkins configuration file not found at %s\n" "${config_file}"
+    printf "   Configuration will be done when Jenkins starts.\n"

-echo "🔧 Updating Jenkins configuration..."
+printf "🔧 Updating Jenkins configuration...\n"

-    echo "❌ Error: yq not found. Please install yq to update Jenkins configuration."
-    echo "   Jenkins URL may need manual configuration."
+    printf "❌ Error: yq not found. Please install yq to update Jenkins configuration.\n"
+    printf "   Jenkins URL may need manual configuration.\n"

-echo "✅ Jenkins configuration updated successfully"
+printf "✅ Jenkins configuration updated successfully\n"
-
-echo ""
-echo "🎉 Setup complete! You're ready to start a tutorial."
-echo ""
+printf "\n"
+printf "🎉 Setup complete! You're ready to start a tutorial.\n"
+printf "\n"

Also applies to: 57-60, 66-69, 77-81


32-38: Avoid build-then-trim; assemble without trailing delimiter.

Reduces string churn; clearer intent.

-message="📚 Available tutorial profiles: "
-for target in "${targets[@]}"; do
-  message+="\033[36m${target}\033[0m, "
-done
-# Remove the trailing comma and space
-message=${message%??}
+message="📚 Available tutorial profiles: "
+sep=""
+for target in "${targets[@]}"; do
+  message+="${sep}\033[36m${target}\033[0m"
+  sep=", "
+done

71-76: Be explicit with yq subcommand for clarity (v4).

Using eval -i is clearer and avoids ambiguity across yq versions.

-yq -i ".unclassified.location.url = \"${service_url}/\"" "${config_file}"
+yq eval -i ".unclassified.location.url = \"${service_url}/\"" "${config_file}"
 
-# Suppress the Reverse Proxy setup warning for Codespaces
-yq -i '.jenkins.disabledAdministrativeMonitors = ["hudson.diagnosis.ReverseProxySetupMonitor"]' "${config_file}"
+# Suppress the Reverse Proxy setup warning for Codespaces
+yq eval -i '.jenkins.disabledAdministrativeMonitors = ["hudson.diagnosis.ReverseProxySetupMonitor"]' "${config_file}"

Replace string concatenation with direct printf calls for building
the profiles list message. This is more maintainable and consistent
with other printf statements in the script.

Benefits:
- Avoids error-prone string building with ANSI escape sequences
- More consistent with the rest of the script
- Cleaner and easier to maintain
- No temporary variables needed
