openshift-client-plugin really still a "tech preview" ? about jenkins-plugin HOT 3 CLOSED

I can't find a nice way to replicate the functionality of openshiftVerifyDeployment in the new plugin. It'd be a shame to lose the features that this plugins does well.

UPDATE: Turns out oc rollout makes this very easy with the new plugin. It watches by default.

openshift.withCluster() { 
  openshift.withProject('myproject') {
    openshift.raw('rollout status dc/nodejs')
  }
}

Yeah, with the upcoming 3.7 release of OpenShift (to be release any day now) we are declaring openshift-client-plugin supported (no longer experimental).

It will be officially supported in production envs at that point.

And yes, we'll need to update this readme to reflect that. And yes, while this plugin is still supported, openshift/jenkins-client-plugin is the strategic direction.

This plugin won't be going anywhere for a while, we're just not going to be adding new capabilities.

Longer term, what we want to do is make the "oc" client binary more capable of these type of actions (verifying things, waiting for things to complete, etc). After all, someone scripting usage of oc outside of a jenkins job might want to verify a deployment too. Then the openshift client plugin would naturally inherit those capabilities.

@gabemontero assigning this to you for any cleanup that needs to be done in both plugin readmes to reflect the deprecated status of this plugin and the GA status of the client plugin.
