# Configure credentials for GitHub Actions Importer

In this lab, you will use the `configure` CLI command to set the required credentials and information for GitHub Actions Importer to use when working with Jenkins and GitHub.

You will need to complete all of the setup instructions [here](./readme.md#configure-your-codespace) prior to performing this lab.

## Configuring credentials

1. Open the Jenkins server in a new browser tab:
      - Click the `PORTS` tab in the codespace terminal window.
      - In the `PORTS` tab, find the row for port 8080.
      - Hover over the address under the `Local Address` column and click the globe to "open in browser".

2. Create a Jenkins API token:
      - In the top right menu bar, click the `admin` button.
      - In the left panel, click the `Configure` gear.
      - In the `API token` section, click the `Add new Token` button and click `Generate`.
      - Copy the generated API token and save it in a safe location.

3. Create a GitHub personal access token (PAT):
      - Open github.com in a new browser tab.
      - In the top right corner of the UI, click your profile photo and click `Settings`.
      - In the left panel, click `Developer Settings`.
      - Click `Personal access tokens` and then `Legacy tokens` (if present).
      - Click `Generate new token` and then `Generate new legacy token`. You may be required to authenticate with GitHub during this step.
      - Name your token in the `Note` field.
      - Select the following scopes: `workflow` and `read:packages`.
      - Click `Generate token`.
      - Copy the generated PAT and save it in a safe location.

4. Run the `configure` CLI command:
      - Select the `TERMINAL` tab from within the codespace terminal window.
      - Run the following command: `gh actions-importer configure`.
      - Use the down arrow key to highlight `Jenkins`, press the spacebar to select, and then press enter to continue.
      - At the GitHub handle prompt, enter the GitHub username used to generate the GitHub PAT in step 3 and press enter.
      - At the GitHub Container Registry prompt, enter the GitHub PAT generated in step 3 and press enter.
      - At the GitHub PAT prompt, enter the GitHub PAT generated in step 3 and press enter.
      - At the GitHub URL prompt, enter the GitHub instance URL or press enter to accept the default value (`https://github.com`).
      - At the Jenkins token prompt, enter the Jenkins access token from step 2 and press enter.
      - At the Jenkins username prompt, enter `admin`  and press enter.
      - At the Jenkins URL prompt, enter `http://localhost:8080/` and press enter.

            ```console
            $ gh actions-importer configure
            ✔ Which CI providers are you configuring?: Jenkins
            Enter the following values (leave empty to omit):
            ✔ GitHub handle used to authenticate with the GitHub Container Registry: mona
            ✔ Personal access token to authenticate with the GitHub Container Registry: ***************
            ✔ Personal access token for GitHub: ***************
            ✔ Base url of the GitHub instance: https://github.com
            ✔ Personal access token for Jenkins: *************** 
            ✔ Username of Jenkins user: admin
            ✔ Base url of the Jenkins instance: https://localhost
            Environment variables successfully updated.
            ```

## Verify your environment

To verify your environment is configured correctly, run the `update` CLI command. The `update` CLI command will download the latest version of GitHub Actions Importer to your codespace.

1. In the codespace terminal run the following command:

   ```bash
   gh actions-importer update
   ```

2. You should see a confirmation that you were logged into the GitHub Container Registry and the image was updated to the latest version.

   ```console
   $ gh actions-importer update
   Login Succeeded
   latest: Pulling from actions-importer/cli
   Digest: sha256:a7d00dee8a37e25da59daeed44b1543f476b00fa2c41c47f48deeaf34a215bbb
   Status: Image is up to date for ghcr.io/actions-importer/cli:latest
   ghcr.io/actions-importer/cli:latest
   ```
