I intend to follow up with Cliosoft and ask. I'll review the GSOC doc more closely, and see if there's anything I can add. I noticed the existing "use custom workspace" option in Jenkins but this seems like a more full featured implementation (including pipeline code support).
I agree about the large amounts of binary data, and I guess I haven't gotten far enough in my investigation of Jenkins to realize that as a problem. All of our data and machines are on a shared network filesystem, so I don't have to copy between different nodes. A lot of data would be in Cliosoft, but otherwise I was hoping I could point to an upstream workspace or of a wrapper job. Also, I think a proper 'populate' from Cliosoft would create links to the data and avoid copying. This is all relevant to what I'm trying to figure out, just overwhelmed with trying to determine a 'best' approach to start with for a variety of different non-native tasks I'd like to automate. Thanks. -Jonathan On Wednesday, May 18, 2016 at 9:39:30 AM UTC-5, Martin d'Anjou wrote: > > I agree this discussion should be here and not on the dev mailing list. > > Have you approached Cliosoft to ask if they would write a Jenkins plugin > for you?
