Use xml_jobs not jobs
Fixes a regression where using --delete-old will delete jobs that are
not updated for example in the case of caching and jenkins-jobs
determines a job does not need to be updated.

jobs returns a list of jobs that were updated via jenkins-jobs while
xml_jobs returns a list of all jobs generated jobs regardless of if they
were updated or not.

README

Jenkins Job Builder takes simple descriptions of Jenkins jobs in YAML or JSON format and uses them to configure Jenkins. You can keep your job descriptions in human readable text format in a version control system to make changes and auditing easier. It also has a flexible template system, so creating many similarly configured jobs is easy.

To install:

$ pip install --user jenkins-job-builder

Cloning:

git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack-infra/jenkins-job-builder

A virtual environment is recommended for development. For example, Jenkins Job Builder may be installed from the top level directory:

$ virtualenv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r test-requirements.txt -e .

Please do not submit GitHub pull requests, they will be automatically closed.

Writing a patch

We ask that all code submissions be pep8 and pyflakes clean. The easiest way to do that is to run tox before submitting code for review in Gerrit. It will run pep8 and pyflakes in the same manner as the automated test suite that will run on proposed patchsets.

When creating new YAML components, please observe the following style conventions:

  • All YAML identifiers (including component names and arguments) should be lower-case and multiple word identifiers should use hyphens. E.g., "build-trigger".
  • The Python functions that implement components should have the same name as the YAML keyword, but should use underscores instead of hyphens. E.g., "build_trigger".

This consistency will help users avoid simple mistakes when writing YAML, as well as developers when matching YAML components to Python implementation.

Installing without setup.py

For YAML support, you will need libyaml installed.

Mac OS X:

$ brew install libyaml

Then install the required python packages using pip:

$ sudo pip install PyYAML python-jenkins
