jenkins-job-dsl

I wanted to run a jenkins job by accepting a date field (in format YYYY-MM-DD) from user. I found a link where user can enter a string parameter: job('example') { parameters { stringParam('myParameterName', 'my default stringParam value', 'my description') } } But in string param user can enter any thing. So how do I force user to enter a date field like a calender field and select date from the calender ? daspilker There seems to be no plugin which provides a date chooser. But you can use the Validating String Parameter Plugin , which can use a regular expression to validate a string

Using the job-dsl-plugin I am attempting to script the configuration of a fair number of Jenkins jobs which have previously been configured manually. One flavour of these jobs has multiple steps including a couple which use the XShell plugin, this is not directly supported by job-dsl. However I should be able to get around that by using a custom "configure" block. Using the "Job DSL playground" at http://job-dsl.herokuapp.com/ I've got as far as: job { name 'my-job' jdk('JDK-17') steps { configure { node -> node / builders { 'hudson.plugins.xshell.XShellBuilder'(plugin: 'xshell@0.9') {

I have installed Pipeline Plugin which used to be called as Workflow Plugin earlier. https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Pipeline+Plugin I want to know how can i use Job Dsl to create and configure a job which is of type Pipeline You should use pipelineJob : pipelineJob('job-name') { definition { cps { script('logic-here') sandbox() } } } You can define the logic by inlining it: pipelineJob('job-name') { definition { cps { script(''' pipeline { agent any stages { stage('Stage 1') { steps { echo 'logic' } } stage('Stage 2') { steps { echo 'logic' } } } } } '''.stripIndent()) sandbox() }
