jenkins-cli

I'm working on a project to deploy a jenkins CI server on centos7 using ansible And I'm having problems creating jenkins jobs from an xml template using ansible. Everything works fine so far, but now i want to be able to create jobs, and give them some basic configuration from an xml file using ansible. My solution was the following command from jenkins-cli: sudo java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:8080 create-job Job_test1 < Job_test1.xml this works perfectly when entered manually in the centos7 box, but when i put it into ansible and run it: - name: create jenkins jobs with xml

I am trying to get the number of builds in the Jenkins Build Queue. May I know the Jenkins command to get the number of builds running in the queue ? See Jenkins' Remote access API. Access the API description with: http://<Your Jenkins>/api/ and the actual data with: http://<Your Jenkins>/api/xml The Build queue has its own separate API: http://<Your Jenkins>/queue/api/ with its data: http://<Your Jenkins>/queue/api/xml That's easy to do with Jenkins Script Console : println Hudson.instance.queue.items.length // => 2 Also that's possible to execute groovy script remotely. For example, from

I have a script to trigger a job on Jenkins remotely using a token. Here is my script: JENKINS_URL='http://jenkins.myserver.com/jenkins' JOB_NAME='job/utilities/job/my_job' JOB_TOKEN='my_token' curl "${JENKINS_URL}/${JOB_NAME}/buildWithParameters?token=${JOB_TOKEN}" After I run it, I get following response: * Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache * Trying 10.5.187.225... * Connected to jenkins.myserver.com (10.5.187.225) port 80 (#0) > GET /jenkins/job/utilities/job/my_job/buildWithParameters?token=my_token HTTP/1.1 > User-Agent: curl/7.37.1 > Host: jenkins.myserver.com > Accept: */* > < HTTP/1

I have a job called "development" and another project called "code analysis". At the moment we have two different jobs and different workspaces, but same code; is there any way we could use the same workspace for multiple jobs? I checked the plugins available in Jenkins but I haven't found any suitable one. Dipu H Suppose your "development" Jenkins job workspace is /var/workspace/job1 . In the "code analysis" job configuration page, under the tab General click on Advanced... and select the option Use custom workspace and give the same workspace /var/workspace/job1 as of your "development" job.

Jenkins is running on localhost. I have my repository in GitHub. I have the option to 'Build when a change is pushed to GitHub' checked. When I click 'Build Now', build is done successfully, no issues there. But when am committing code to my repository, auto build is not happening. I can access GitHub from my system as the repository is public and I believe even Jenkins should be able to detect it. I know there is a polling option but I want Jenkins to build when change is detected in repository(as this is what we have been trying to achieve). Configuration: Jenkins 1.615 Git Plugin 2.3.5 Git
