A plan allows us to specify a source code repository, when Bamboo gets triggered to run the build, and how Bamboo should provide feedback on the test results.

The preferred way to install Bamboo is using official Mac OS X installer. Starting point for documentation is official install guide. Follow installer steps using default values.

This article assumes you are dealing with Bamboo version 5.2 and above. Protect files app mac. All examples are for version 5.7.2.

To download tar-ball using command line run this command

Bamboo needs Java to be installed, recommended versions are 1.6 or 1.7, I would advise to go with 1.7.

Make a new home for Bamboo. It could be /Applications/Bamboo or ~/bamboo/bamboo-home or whatever you want. For this post I’ll stick with second option. It is often recommended to create a special bamboo user and put all things in their home directory. To create a new user use System Preferences and create Standard user.

Note that I switch user (su) to work with Bamboo user’s files and folders. This way I stay away from possible permissions conflicts. You could login as bamboo user instead. In any case, the rest of the article assumes you are operating as bamboo user.

Once downloaded unzip the tar-ball and copy atlassian-bamboo-5.7.2 to bamboo user’s home folder. Rename it to just bamboo to make it version agnostic.

Then go inside that folder. This is referred as installation directory and this is where you will install and run Bamboo from. Edit the file in atlassian-bamboo/WEB-INF/classes/bamboo-init.properties. Uncomment the line with bamboo.home and put the following.

This is where Bamboo will put all the customizations and build plan details.

Now you should run bin/start-bamboo.sh.

Bamboo is now running on http://localhost:8085/.

Next step is to configure Bamboo, heres official documentation. Recommended way is to use Setup Wizard which presents itself when you open http://localhost:8085/ in the browser.

Start by getting a license. You can always get a 30 days free evaluation license from Atlassian.

Next select Custom Installation option. Have a look at Base URL, make sure the IP address is correct. Also this is a good moment to pause and double check that your future Bamboo server has a static IP address allocated. This will become really important when dealing with remote agents. Leave the rest unchanged and click Continue.

Select Embedded database option. It is recommended to use other DB setup for production system. I might refine the article later to include setup details for PostgreSQL database.

Next, choose to create a new Bamboo home, configure your username. Give it some time and you will be able to create your first build plan.

Now it’s time to make sure Bamboo start automatically when build box restarts. As mentioned in this article recommended way is to use Launch Agent. Start by enabling automatic login for bamboo user in System Preferences.

Next create com.atlassian.bamboo.plist in /Users/bamboo/Library/LaunchAgents.

Make sure you create few aliases to start and stop Bamboo server from command line.

This section provides an example of issues you may run into while trying to fire up Bamboo.

For example, you start Bamboo and see this instead of dashboard.

To find out the reason look into Bamboo logs, specifically in /Users/bamboo/bamboo/logs/catalina.out.

OK, so database is presumably locked by another process. In my case it meant there was another Bamboo running already. Double check it then by running ps.

Indeed it is. I have another terminal tab open running bamboo user session and Bamboo server.

After I stop or kill all the instances I run it again and this time it works.

This is just one example of troubles, all of them will pretty much present themselves via the same starting error page. Another common case is database upgrade, you can run into this issue if using PostgreSQL and upgrade it via Homebrew, so it’s recommended to pin PostgreSQL instead.

Bamboo Ci Mac App Installer

This will get you going with basic Bamboo CI server. There’s a number of additional administrative tasks yet to be done. Like configuring user access, integration with other Atlassian products, network configuration, plugins, capabilities and much more. I wouldn’t envy anyone who would have to deal with all those tasks. Companies that take CI seriously normally have Dev Support team keeping whole infrastructure running, not just Bamboo.
