Tom, I am working out the same sort of thing with Jenkins Workflows and GitLab. It was very simple to get working for me.
All I had to do was 1. make a new workflow job, 2. check the "Trigger builds remotely" box 3. set an authentication token 4. Go to my repository settings in git lab and make a web hook with my trigger URL combined with the authentication token I had previously set 5. save the job in Jenkins 6. save my configuration in Gitlab 7. commit some code 8. watch a successfully automated build I am very pleased at how easy this all was with my self-hosted GitLab server. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
