Re: Jenkins 2.0 Proposal: Pipeline as code front and center

I think there are two problems with workflow and other script related plugins: 1. There is slim-to-none documentation on Jenkins APIs. There is no single authoritative place to learn about available interfaces with basic to advanced examples of their usage. Frankly, I haven't found a go
