Brendan Brewster created JENKINS-15836 Slave's Name should be trimmed of spaces at the beginning and end of the Name on Save Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: current Assignee: Peter Hayes Attachments: Project Config.png Components: dashboard-view Created: 16/Nov/12 12:22 AM Description: Hello, thank you all for Jenkins. It is a wonderful project. We had one major problem setting up Jenkins that can be easily fixed: When you create a Slave and accidentally add a space at the end of the Name, it is impossible to tell by looking at the name that it contains whitespace. If you try to use the Slave's Name such as in a Label _expression_ when restricting where a project can be run, you are told "There's no slave/cloud that matches this assignment." It is very hard to work out that the problem is an extra space in the Slave's Name. You COULD enter the Slave's Name as "Blah " in the Label _expression_, but the real problem is you accidentally added a space to the name that should be removed. We believe there is no good reason to allow spaces at the end (or beginning?) of a Slave's Name and we request that you trim the Slave's Name of spaces when you Create and Save a Slave's configuration. Many thanks! Project: Jenkins Labels: slave Priority: Minor Reporter: Brendan Brewster
