I would like to automate the process of creating/removing views and jobs on a running instance of jenkins from code. I imagined creating a java application that uses the jenkins api to do various jenkins (re)configuration tasks, eg. create jobs, specify scm, build types (maven, free style, ... ) etc. Much like this:
http://evgeny-goldin.com/wiki/Jenkins-maven-plugin http://www.kellyrob99.com/blog/2011/03/27/hooking-into-the-jenkinshudson-api/ but instead it should use the Jenkins api to avoid the raw modification of the the xml files. I am looking at this: http://kohsuke.org/2012/01/27/writing-programs-that-drive-jenkins/ https://github.com/jenkinsci/cli-channel-demo which looks promising. But are there more examples showing how to eg. create views? Or is the support still limited for using the jenkins api from java: http://jenkins.361315.n4.nabble.com/API-for-Jenkins-configuration-td3420368.html -- View this message in context: http://jenkins.361315.n4.nabble.com/Creating-removing-views-jobs-from-code-using-the-Jenkins-API-tp4651293.html Sent from the Jenkins users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
