Specifying agent at queue build time with TFS 2015

问题

Is it possible to configure a build so you can set which agent you want it to run on when you manually queue a build?

回答1:

Do you have any special in your scenario?

Generally, in VSTS you can select which agent (Hosted) you want to run directly when you manually queue a build:

UPDATE：

If you are using on-premise TFS (TFS 2015 in your scenario) or Private agent for VSTS. Then you can set Demands when you queue a build.

You can also queue build with the REST API and specify the demands which match the specific agent:

e.g.:

Param(
   [string]$collectionurl = "http://server:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection/",
   [string]$projectName = "0323ScrumTFVC",
   [string]$keepForever = "true",
   [string]$BuildDefinitionId = "1",
   [string]$user = "username",
   [string]$token = "password"
)

# Base64-encodes the Personal Access Token (PAT) appropriately
$base64AuthInfo = [Convert]::ToBase64String([Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(("{0}:{1}" -f $user,$token)))

function CreateJsonBody
{

    $value = @"
  {
  "definition": {
    "id": $BuildDefinitionId
  },

  "sourceBranch": "$/0323ScrumTFVC",
  "demands":["Agent.Name -equals AgentNameHere"]
 }           

}
"@

 return $value
}

$json = CreateJsonBody

$uri = "$($collectionurl)/$($projectName)/_apis/build/builds?api-version=2.0"
$result = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uri -Method Post -Body $json -ContentType "application/json" -Headers @{Authorization=("Basic {0}" -f $base64AuthInfo)}

It appears this is the only way on VSTS 2015:

No friendly drop-drown menu so you have to type it in.
