Examples

Initialization

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('myuser', 'mypassword'))
>>> j.version
'2.176.2'
>>> j.description
'My jenkins'
>>> j.attrs
['_class', 'mode', 'node_description', 'node_name', 'num_executors', 'description', 'quieting_down', 'slave_agent_port', 'use_crumbs', 'use_security']

Job

• Get job

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> job = j.get_job('freestylejob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/freestylejob/>

• Create job

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> xml = """<?xml version='1.1' encoding='UTF-8'?>
... <project>
...   <builders>
...     <hudson.tasks.Shell>
...       <command>echo $JENKINS_VERSION</command>
...     </hudson.tasks.Shell>
...   </builders>
... </project>"""
>>> j.create_job('freestylejob', xml)
>>> job = j.get_job('freestylejob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/freestylejob/>

• Copy job

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> j.copy_job('freestylejob', 'newjob')
>>> j.get_job('newjob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/newjob/>

• Build job without parameters and pull pregressive output

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> item = j.build_job('freestylejob')
>>> import time
>>> while not item.get_build():
...      time.sleep(1)
>>> build = item.get_build()
>>> print(build)
<FreeStyleBuild: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/freestylejob/1/>
>>> for line in build.progressive_output():
...     print(line)
...

Build job with delay or token

>>> item = j.build_job('freestylejob', {'delay':'30sec', 'token':'abc'})

Build job with parameters

>>> item = j.build_job('freestylejob', {'arg1':'string1', 'arg2':'string2'})

• Iterate jobs

Default depth is 0

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> for job in j.iter_job():
...     print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/freestylejob/>

• Delete job

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> job = j.get_job('freestylejob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/freestylejob/>
>>> j.delete_job('freestylejob')
>>> job = j.get_job('freestylejob')
>>> print(job)
None

Folder

Requires the Cloudbees Folders Plugin for Jenkins.

This is an example showing how to create, configure and delete Jenkins folders.

• Create job

Use method Jenkins.create_job

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> j.create_job('folder', folder_xml)
>>> j.create_job('folder/freestylejob', job_xml)
>>> job = j.get_job('folder/freestylejob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/folder/job/freestylejob/>

Use method Folder.create

>>> j.create_job('folder', folder_xml)
>>> folder = j.get_job('folder')
>>> print(folder)
<Folder: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/folder/>
>>> folder.create('freestylejob', job_xml)
>>> job = folder.get('freestylejob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/folder/job/freestylejob/>

• Copy job

use method Jenkins.copy_job to copy job in same folder

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> j = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> j.copy_job('folder/freestylejob', 'newjob')
>>> j.get_job('folder/newjob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/folder/job/newjob/>

use method of Folder.copy to copy job in same folder

>>> folder = j.get_job('folder')
>>> folder.copy('freestylejob', 'newjob')
>>> job = folder.get('newjob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/folder/job/newjob/>

use method of Job.duplicate to copy job in different place

>>> old = j.get_job('folder/freestylejob')
>>> old.duplicate('folder/newjob')
>>> job = j.get_job('folder/newjob')
>>> print(job)
<FreeStyleProject: http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/folder/job/newjob/>
