About this library
-------------------

Jenkins is the market leading continuous integration system.

Jenkins (and its predecessor Hudson) are useful projects for automating common development tasks (e.g. unit-testing, production batches) - but they are somewhat Java-centric.

Jenkinsapi makes scripting Jenkins tasks a breeze by wrapping the REST api into familiar python objects.

Here is a list of some of the most commonly used functionality

* Add, remove, and query Jenkins jobs
* Control pipeline execution
    * Query the results of a completed build
    * Block until jobs are complete or run jobs asyncronously
    * Get objects representing the latest builds of a job
* Artifact management
    * Search for artifacts by simple criteria
    * Install artifacts to custom-specified directory structures
* Search for builds by source code revision
* Create, destroy, and monitor
    * Build nodes (Webstart and SSH slaves)
    * Views (including nested views using NestedViews Jenkins plugin)
    * Credentials (username/password and ssh key)
* Authentication support for username and password
* Manage jenkins and plugin installation

Full library capabilities are outlined in the `Documentation <http://pycontribs.github.io/jenkinsapi/>`__

Get details of jobs running on Jenkins server
---------------------------------------------

.. code-block:: python

    """Get job details of each job that is running on the Jenkins instance"""
    def get_job_details():
        # Refer Example #1 for definition of function 'get_server_instance'
        server = get_server_instance()
        for job_name, job_instance in server.get_jobs():
            print 'Job Name:%s' % (job_instance.name)
            print 'Job Description:%s' % (job_instance.get_description())
            print 'Is Job running:%s' % (job_instance.is_running())
            print 'Is Job enabled:%s' % (job_instance.is_enabled())

Disable/Enable a Jenkins Job
----------------------------

.. code-block:: python

    def disable_job():
        """Disable a Jenkins job"""
        # Refer Example #1 for definition of function 'get_server_instance'
        server = get_server_instance()
        job_name = 'nightly-build-job'
        if (server.has_job(job_name)):
            job_instance = server.get_job(job_name)
            job_instance.disable()
            print 'Name:%s,Is Job Enabled ?:%s' % (job_name,job_instance.is_enabled())

Use the call ``job_instance.enable()`` to enable a Jenkins Job.


Known issues
------------
* Job deletion operations fail unless Cross-Site scripting protection is disabled.

For other issues, please refer to the `support URL <https://github.com/pycontribs/jenkinsapi/issues?direction=desc&sort=comments&state=open>`_

Development
-----------

* Make sure that you have Java_ installed. Jenkins will be automatically
  downloaded and started during tests.
* Create virtual environment for development
* Install package in development mode

.. code-block:: bash

    uv sync

* Make your changes, write tests and check your code

.. code-block:: bash

    uv run pytest -sv
