2023.03.23 - Service Release Updates

JDK17 and JDK21 for use by customer’s DXP Cloud build (specifically the liferay service build portion). Existing JDK8 and JDK11 are still available.

Jenkins itself in version 5.3.0 still runs on JDK8

 

LCD-40895 Until now if a customer wanted to change the JDK for build pipelines from the default JDK8 to JDK11(or another JDK) they have to modify the gradle.properties in the liferay gradle workspace. Now customers will be able to do it by configuring the following Environment Variable to specify which JDK they want to use. 

"LCP_CI_GRADLE_JDK": "jdk11/jdk17/jdk21"

We recommend customers to stop using gradle.properties  and switch to using this environment variable instead. The older jdk paths will soon be deprecated.

Image Update Instructions

The Liferay Cloud image versions needs to be set inside of the <service>/LCP.json file.

Note, however, that the liferay service uses two image properties. The DXP Cloud image is set in the liferay/LCP.json file, but the liferay/dxp image is set in the gradle.properties. This change was made in order to facilitate easier deployment using the Liferay Cloud CLI.

liferay/LCP.json file would set the liferaycloud/liferay-dxp image:

"image":"liferaycloud/liferay-dxp:7.2-5.0.X"

liferay/gradle.properties file would set the liferay/dxp image:

liferay.workspace.docker.image.liferay=liferay/dxp:7.4-x

For all other images, you will just need to update the LCP.json file with the intended image version.

Once the LCP.json files are updated, commit the changes to your Git repository.

git add . && git commit -m "Update dxp cloud stack to XXX"

After pushing these changes to the remote repository, a build will be created in Liferay Cloud and it is ready to deploy.
