Setting up Your Build Pipeline

1. Go to Pipelines > Builds >  New > New Build Pipeline.

2. Select the source for your code. You can create a pipeline using YAML (Option 1), or use the classic editor to create a pipeline without YAML (Option 2).

Option 1: Creating a Pipeline Using YAML

1. In the Where is your code? screen, select a YAML-enabled option.

   

2. In the Select a repository screen, select your repository.

   

3. In Configure your pipeline, select the relevant pipeline configuration.

   

4. In Review your pipeline YAML, add the following text as a post-build step. This activates the Mend integration on your build pipeline.
   

   - script: |
       curl -LJO https://unified-agent.s3.amazonaws.com/wss-unified-agent.jar
       echo Unified Agent downloaded successfully
       java -jar wss-unified-agent.jar
     env:
       WS_APIKEY: $(APIKEY)
       WS_USERKEY: $(USERKEY)
       WS_WSS_URL: $(WSS_URL)
       WS_PRODUCTNAME: AZDO_$(System.TeamProject)
       WS_PROJECTNAME: $(Build.Repository.Name)_$(Build.SourceBranchName)
     displayName: 'Mend Unified Agent Scan'

5. Add environment variables for APIKEY, USERKEY, and WSS_URL, as described by the Microsoft documentation, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/variables?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml%2Cbatch

6. Click Save and run.

Option 2: Creating a Pipeline Without YAML (Classic Editor)

1. Select the type of repository:

   

2. Select an Empty job:

   

3. Enter a name for the job and select an Agent pool:

   

4. Add the relevant build task (Maven, npm, Gradle, .NET Core, etc.).

   

5. Add a Command Line task and update the following fields to activate the Mend integration on your build pipeline.

   • Display name: Mend Unified Agent Scan

   • Script:

     curl -LJO https://unified-agent.s3.amazonaws.com/wss-unified-agent.jar

     java -jar wss-unified-agent.jar

   • Environment Variables:

     • WS_APIKEY: your-apiKey

     • WS_USERKEY: your-userKey

     • WS_WSS_URL: your-wssUrl

     • WS_PRODUCTNAME: AZDO_$(System.TeamProject)

     • WS_PROJECTNAME: $(Build.Repository.Name)_$(Build.SourceBranchName)

6. Click Save & queue.
