Can automated build be triggered in Jenkins after SVN check in. We want to trigger and deploy the automated build to dev automatically
Jenkins builds can be triggered from rest api. Using curl tool like ;
curl -X POST http://jenkinsBuildUserName:BuildUserApiToken#your-jenkins.com/job/JobName/build?token=AuthenticationToken
There are some configurations that needs to be applied in Jenkins(like enabling url triggers)
This post explains these steps very clearly
https://www.nczonline.net/blog/2015/10/triggering-jenkins-builds-by-url/
Create a bat file which has the above command and has curl in the same folder.
At the svn server side, you can configure a post commit hook which executes this bat file. Everytime you make commit this bat file will be executed then jenkins job will be triggered.

I suggest you to use Multi Job Plugin (or if you find a similar plugin) to include your jenkins jobs. Then you can configure jobName in the url as this root job to trigger all the jobs you want

I have connected Bitbucket to my Jenkins on vps (where I have BitBucket plugin to trigger events when changes are pushed/commited to Bitbucket).
So when Push happens on BitBucket repository, Jenkins starts build (that takes about 10 seconds). After that, the Post-build event happens, where I use specific command (sending changed files to somwhere). However, I am only interested to run that specific command, and I don't need building at all (so I could save 10 seconds).
Any way to do that?
p.s. Here is what config I use: https://i.imgur.com/7JDy8Ex.png
Based in the screenshot the Jenkins job does the following
Triggered on Source code change
Runs the build step ( which runs ssh publisher plugin)
Post build
If you just want to run the command you have in post build. Remove the ssh publisher step. Add a new build step that executes command/shell and add your current post build command in the step.
I have configured individual jenkins jobs for each project. in my case, whenever there is a commit, all the jobs are getting triggered. how do I make sure only that job pertinent to the project runs and creates the deployable artifacts.
What URL have you configured in GIT repo? Does it contain repo name? Does each project has it's own repository?
When you call curl http://yourserver/jenkins/git/notifyCommit?url=<URL of the Git repository> jenkins will scan all the jobs that are configured to check out the specified URL. Do you have multiple jobs using the same repository?
You can try to use build triggers - you will be able to invoke a job by its name.
I'm having trouble getting my webhook in bitbucket server to start a Jenkins job. I've read through the other answered questions on here and can't get it going.
Bitbucket setup:
No special plugins installed
In repository settings I have a webhook set up
URL: http://[my jenkins url]/bitbucket-hook/ (yes I have the trailing slash)
Repo Push event selected
Jenkins setup:
Bitbucket plugin installed
Created new job
Set SCM to Git and added repo details
Set branches to build to either ** or refs/heads/rob-jenkins (a branch in git)
Build when a change is pushed to bitbucket selected
What I do:
I make a change to a file in rob-jenkins branch, push and the job is not started in Jenkins.
What I see:
In bitbucket, repo settings, webhooks I can see the webhook fired as soon as the commit is pushed. It has a 200 http status code, response body is empty.
In Jenkins I've set up a logger for
com.cloudbees.jenkins.plugins.BitbucketHookReceiver
com.cloudbees.jenkins.plugins.BitbucketJobProbe
com.cloudbees.jenkins.plugins.BitbucketPayloadProcessor
com.cloudbees.jenkins.plugins.BitBucketTrigger
And when I look at those logs I can see only 1 entry from com.cloudbees.jenkins.plugins.BitbucketHookReceiver
Received commit hook notification : {"eventKey":"repo:refs_changed","date":"2018-05-22T12:18:11+1000","actor":{"name":"xxxxxx","emailAddress":"xxxxxx#xxxxxx.com","id":53,"displayName":"xxxxxx","active":true,"slug":"xxxxxxx","type":"NORMAL"},"repository":{"slug":"xxxxx","id":1,"name":"xxxxx","scmId":"git","state":"AVAILABLE","statusMessage":"Available","forkable":true,"project":{"key":"SS","id":2,"name":"xxxxx","description":"xxxxxx","public":false,"type":"NORMAL"},"public":false},"changes":[{"ref":{"id":"refs/heads/rob-jenkins","displayId":"rob-jenkins","type":"BRANCH"},"refId":"refs/heads/rob-jenkins","fromHash":"1d9ad42fa404c893853094b0072e5b839f787589","toHash":"9bf7dc873f355259e4338ee80afbd246ecbb48a9","type":"UPDATE"}]}
There are no other entries in the log.
In the job itself, the BitBucket Hook Log screen just says "Polling has not run yet."
No idea why it isn't triggering the Jenkins job... what am I missing?
I've tried setting the Poll SCM manually and that didn't make a difference.
I've done a manual build and it works fine
as commented by #tomas-bjerre the resolution was to use a different plugin
I would recommend using thie plugin instead: github.com/jenkinsci/generic-webhook-trigger-plugin – Tomas Bjerre yesterday
No plugin needed. Just add a post-recieve hook under your repo in Bitbucket. On Jenkins, under Build Triggers, Trigger builds remotely (e.g., from scripts) Trigger builds remotely (e.g., from scripts) and specify an Authentication Token. A bash or python script can be used for the hook. Anytime a git push is run (not just a commit), you trigger a build!
Is there a way to add a build step in TeamCity which sends a request to Jenkins server, run some automation test scripts in Jenkins and sends back a response to Teamcity.
The idea basically is to automate the whole deployment process which also includes running of some automation tests created using python scripts (which will be done on Jenkins).
I am not sure if this is the best way of doing it but are there any better ways to achieve this? Also any hints on how to send command from Teamcity to Jenkins?
You can make an http request, as mentioned in the comment to start tests on Jenkins.
As for publishing the results bach to TeamCity, the possible solution might be:
after tests are done on Jenkins, publish the results that can be accessed externally (by TeamCity) and interpreted / reported by TeamCity (either in any of the supported formats), or manually, by the script, that will be run by TeamCity, using service messages
create a build configuration that will process the tests after the Jenkins build
set up a URL build trigger plugin, configure the trigger for the created build configuration. Point the trigger to the address where results are published. As soon as the content published is changed, the build will start and you will be able to download the tests results to TeamCity and process them
Got an easy to implement solution for the first part i.e. sending command from Teamcity to Jenkins
Using CURL:
Install/copy Curl to the Teamcity agent.
and then in your TC build configurations, create a new Command line build step similar to below (modify the parameters to your needs)
curl --user %jenkins_user%:%jenkins_pwd% -X POST http://%jenkins_instance_withport%/job/%jenkins_jobs_name%/buildWithParameters?token=%jenkins_token% --data "Build_Number=%build.number%"
e.g: curl --user admin:password -X POST http://jenkinssever:2123/job/test-build-image/buildWithParameters?token=rtbuild --data "Build_Number=1.2.0"
Here i could even pass the build number to Jenkins by using "-- data"
Do the below under Jenkins build configuration:
In Jenkins configuration:
In Jenkins configuration, update the below values:
"This project is parameterized"
Name: Build_Number
Default Value: 1.2.0
"Trigger builds remotely"
Authentication Token: rtbuild
Optional: for setting build number
"Set Build Name"
Build Name: #${Build_numuber}
done and you are good to go.please do let me know you if you have more questions.
the above is the implementation of the Initial comment
I think I found a way while trying to solve similar use-case, did it for batch files in Teamcity build steps. for Jenkins, we have to modify accordingly.
Also is there any specific reason for using Teamcity and Jenkins simultaneously, unless you are making use of already created Jenkins build?
Steps:
Get CLI based command for Jenkins:
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Jenkins+CLI
you can achieve in two ways
Method 1:
As build step is in current build.
Create a build step before your current step and trigger the Jenkins build using CLI
Based on the return value of the Jenkins build step, next step will execute
Method 2:
create a new build with above CLI step and add a dependency in your primary build.
so whenever the primary build is started, it will start the dependent CLI jenkins build. and once the dependent build is completed, will return success/failure, based on that the primary build will start.
i haven't tested the CLI of Jenkins but as Teamcity supports the steps and dependencies structure, expecting this will work.
will keep posted once i implement it.
The scenario is - I have a job A which runs my ant script and packages the artifact's for me.
I am also using parametrized Triggered plug in to Trigger my "Job B" which will deploy my artifact on remote machine.
The job A is working fine and also Job B.
The tasks that i have to perform with Job B are
GIT checkout (which contains my deployment scripts) (successfully doning).
Copying artifacts from previous build to Remote machine. (successfully doing)
Run shell script on remote machine(script present in workspace folder )- Facing issues.
I browsed various plug ins for the same but no one is allowing me to run shell script after , "SCP to remote machine" which is present in Post build action.
I would like to execute the same sequence, however if you guys have any other suggestions please share.
Thanks in Advance.!
As part of Publish Over SSH Plugin, you can execute a script after the files had been copied over.
Under Post-build Actions
Add Send build artifacts over SSH
Select a preconfigured server (done in global configuration)
Select files to copy from workspace
Enter Exec command
If one of the files you copy is your shell script, you can enter it here as an "exec command"
To solve my query i used Jenkins SSH Plugin. This provides a configuration tab where i can add multiple hosts and after that used them in my job level configuration.
Link to Plugin
you get privilege to execute shell script on remote host as pre-build step or post build step.
updated the path of publish over ssh it worked for me
