Re: New to Jenkins - need some help
Hi boy8bitx, It sounds like it is part of your assignment to figure these items out, so I will not answer your questions directly. However, what I will say is that most of these questions can be answered by playing with your Jenkins installation and understanding Maven a bit better. Jobs are cheap, so if you're not sure what the difference between a freestyle job and a Maven 2/3 job, set up a job of each type and run builds for each. Read the inline help for each item in the configuration page. Make sure you run at least a couple builds under each job type. For Maven functions related to your questions, you should probably make sure you read and understand http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html. Try a few of the lifecycle commands to make sure you know what they do, then try them in Jenkins to see if Jenkins can help you. Hope this helps and good luck. It's good to hear your teacher is exposing you to these kinds of tools and technologies, it took me a while after school to discover these and get them in place. topher On Fri, Aug 16, 2013 at 4:41 PM, boy8b...@gmail.com wrote: First of all I'm a student and very noobish with linux and jenkins.

Re: New to Jenkins, have 7 days to become an expert - wish me luck
It was surprising easy to get Jenkins up and running - The bad memories from the Hudson days had been freaking me out.But I do apprecaite all the hands of help that came my way the reponse to this message was most welcoming. Well, diffrent communities welcome newbies in diffrent ways, and I suppose the frost and ice in here is nothing diffrent from other technical communities. Anyway - Thanks ... to the devs who made Jenkins - I can see it being a massive time saver.
Re: New to Jenkins, have 7 days to become an expert - wish me luck
Hello and welcome! Become a pro in 7 days is hell of demand :) I am working on a massive scale with Hudson/Jenkins for 2 years now and am still developing my skills as useful plugins emerge where I created some nasty scripting to find my way around. My environment is about to reach the final level and I have started to review and improve much stuff as I do realize that much stuff is doing well but still it can be done better and with more functionality. But Jenkins is absolutely great when starting from scratch as you - as you already realized - can start in big paces. And the community here is really a great help when get stuck. So good luck mate and don't hesitate to ask ;) Jan Am Dienstag, 4.

I'm learning jenkins! A quick read over the home page showed various plugins - rundeck, gitlab, both of which we use, so I'm really hoping that I can glue this lot together, so that when a dev pushes his work to the repo, five minutes later, the new website is displaying all his mistakes in HD on a nice test URL. I have a feeling that jenkins can help me here - im all ears at the moment, i will really appreciate some advice. Right now, im spinning up a VM to practice getting my jenkins install going - and hopefully, i should be able to start to automate most of my day. Thanks
Re: New to Jenkins - need help
In this case, you can configure the Product jobs to trigger the Library jobs, using Trigger/call on other projects build step. And in the Library jobs, uses the path ignore plugin : https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Pathignore+Plugin By using the Do not build if only specified paths have changed and the Invert Ignore option, you should be able to configure a condition such as build only if these paths has changed I never actually tried such a configurable, but it seems doable. 2012/12/7 Ivan Kharin k13.priv...@gmail.com One possible configuration is : one Jenkins jobs for each library, one Jenkins jobs for each product. Then, for each library : - Poll SCM to check if changes happened - Build the library - Trigger the builds of the product that relie on this library. For each product : - Retrieve the libraries artifacts from the libraries jobs - Compile the product You can configure the products to prevent a job to run while a library it depends upon is building (advanced project option - do not build when upstream project is building) Sorry, but this solution does not suit me. Assembling one product can take about an hour. Last duration for some libraries: 9 min, 14 min, 26 min, 33 min I want to run the assembly of the product on demand - and with all the necessary libraries must be updated. But I can not afford to build all libraries prior to building of the product. And I can not afford the rebuilding of products at each change in libraries.
Re: New to Jenkins - need help
Well, there is a plugin available that lets you define which changes may trigger and which not. That way should you always have a recent set of libraries available when starting a bulld. You can also use the join plugin if certain libraries must be built before the assembly build is spawned or you have a build matrix. There are many approaches to achieve your goal but I think you would have to elaborate a bit more which requirements and dependencies you have in order to run an assembly build Take care Jan Am Freitag, 7.

We build and test the libraries separately and check the binaries into tags in a subversion repository. Then the projects that use them have svn externals to pull in all the components they want - either source or binary. The externals have to be manually changed to move to newer library releases but that is normally what we want. It would be pretty rare for someone here to want to build trunk versions of all the components and have a lot of untested code to debug together - but that can be done if needed. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com
