Hi, I would definitely go with the Job DSL Plugin. We started with the Job Copy Plugin a while ago, but we rather quickly ran into some limitations, e.g. no real good support for conditions (if/then/else). We switched to Job DSL Plugin and have already +3000 Jobs (some with a build pipelines of 10 builds) serving 3 developer hubs with some hundred of developers and it works like a charm. If you use the Job DSL Plugin together with Parameterized Builds you can provide a DIY service where the developer fills in the required parameter in the UI and then a Job DSL seed job is executed and a complete build pipeline is generated in a few seconds ensuring consistency by using a template.
Br Christian So if you don't have just a few builds then Job DSL Plugin is my strong recommendations On Friday, August 1, 2014 1:17:02 PM UTC+2, Ben Patterson wrote: > > Karthik - have you looked at the Job DSL Plugin > <https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Job+DSL+Plugin>?
