More code needs to have tests written for it!

I had to change the 'get_revision' method to work properly iterate over the revisions in a changeset and return the max (latest) one:

    def get_revision(self):
        maxRevision = 0
        try:
            for set in self._data["changeSet"]["revisions"]:
                maxRevision = max(set["revision"], maxRevision)
            return maxRevision
        except KeyError:
            return maxRevision

A key error was also produced sometimes, not sure why this was.

As is possible with jenkins-cli.jar, it would be great if jenkinsapi could mark a node offline and online.

The use case is part of an upgrade automation script for several jenkins test/build slaves.

Hi,

I think that create_job shall not throw exception if job already exists and shall just return existing job object. This way code, that uses this function will be a bit simplier.

For example: when I am generating jobs in bulk and some of the jobs are already there my current code is this:

for new_job in my_new_jobs:
    try:
        created_job = jenkins.create_job(new_job)
    except JenkinsAPIException:
        created_job = jenkins.get_job(new_job)

If we change function it will be this:

for new_job in my_new_jobs:
    created_job = jenkins.create_job(new_job)

What do you think?

Hi,

Unit tests fail because there is no get_nodes() method in Jenkins class.

Suggesting that line 264 in jenkinsapi/build.py be changed from

return self._data['timestamp']

to

return self._data['timestamp'] / 1000

The timestamp field in java is represented in milliseconds, which isn't compatible with other native time formats in python. IE time.time.ctime() or datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp()
passing the output from the build.get_timestamp() into these functions results in a failure because they are expecting seconds.

Instead of dumping a stacktrace on the user, that is not nice

Artifact._do_download uses urllib.urlretrieve directly and does not use opener from Jenkins object. So if authentication is needed, the download will fail on authentication error.

It would be nice to be able to display the version of the module from within the code

What i'm still stuck on is a parameterized build. The api seems to suggest that you need to post the build parameters as json string data. There seems to be a params input on the job.invoke method, but i can't seem to find any information on the format of the params and using a sample like params={'myBuildParam':'helloworld'} doesn't seem to work. Any insight would be appreciated.

The launch of Jenkins times-out.

If a build is storing artifacts, but not recording fingerprints, using Artifact.save() will result in an error like this:

HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found
ERROR:jenkinsapi.utils.retry:HTTP Error 404: Not Found

The reason seems to be that when Artifact.save calls _verify_download, it will create a Fingerprint object, which in turn will try to fetch its data from Jenkins. Since there is no fingerprint tracking for these artifacts, that will fail.

The files are downloaded, since the error is captured and occurs after the file has been saved.

In this case, I think Fingerprint should recognize the case of 404 and set some status code, or propagate the exception upwards so that _verify_download can see that no fingerprint is available, and bypass (e.g. always return True).

Ironcially, a project all about CI has (until recently) not had any CI set-up!

Hi,
I'm having problem to make create_node work. Other methods like delete_node, has_node works just fine.
I'm trying to run following towards a Jenkins [version v. 1.485] instance which runs on a Tomcat6: (I'm running version 0.1.11 of jenkinsapi)

#!/usr/bin/python

from jenkinsapi.jenkins import *

        jenkins.create_node("FOO")
    except urllib2.HTTPError, error:

Jenkins ver. 1.487

Our company has a jenkins server, that is accessible from within our internal network as:

http://jenkins:8080

And remotely, as

http://jenkins.domain.name:8080

However, when I am at a remote location, and do:

Jenkins('http://jenkins.domain.name:8080').get_job('my_job')

the url that it ends up trying to access is:

http://jenkins:8080/job/my_job/

ie, it has lost the domain name.

This seems to be a fairly serious issue - it has certainly made jenkinsapi unusable for us...

The API for launching jobs is confusing and unhelpful.

Currently you might have to do something like:

myJob.invoke(block=myBool)

If you want to get the job that was just invoked you need to call another function. I think we should move to something more like this:

Launch and wait for a job to complete:

build = myJob.invoke()
build.block_until_started()
build.block()

And what of the behavior when you try to build a job which is already running or queued?

build1 = longJob.invoke() # Starts a job
build2 = longJob.invoke() # Queues the 2nd job because the 1st is still running
build3 = longJob.invoke() # Guess what happens?
assert build2 == build3 # That's what happens

It will be really nice to have this working on python3 ;)
(I tried 2to3, but lib does not work after that)

Most of our objects set the self.jenkins attribute in their own init methods. This should be done in the jenkinsbase object given that it's a required attribute on just about every object in the API.

I want to find out the repo url and commit id in terms of a build id (Not build number).

Is it possible to do this using jenkinsapi? I tried a lot, but I failed to find a solution.

But I do know the RESTful API is working, however that requires me to login to do so.

Any advice?

Ran 1 test in 0.519s

Although is_running() handles the NoBuildData exception, it does not appear to execute the code which would raise this exception when appropriate.

NoBuildData is only raised by get_build_dict() and get_revision_dict(). These are not in the call chain for is_running, so the NoBuildData situation is not detected.

This appears to eventually fail in _buildid_for_type with (see traceback below)
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

I am not sure where would be the best place in the chain to introduce the check, but I think something should perform a check similar to get_build_dict().

    if not self._data.has_key( "builds" ):
        raise NoBuildData( repr(self) )

Perhaps _buildid_for_type is most appropriate to make the test effective for the broadest range of calling functions.

Currently it returns Job object, but in case of nested views, it could be either Job or View. The method shall return whatever matches parameter.

The views behaviour is currently untested and does not actually seem to be able to create views. I've tried to develop a simplified model of how it's done, however this is not quite right yet:

from jenkinsapi_tests.test_utils.random_strings import random_string
import requests
import json

url = 'http://localhost:8080/newView'
str_view_name = random_string()
params = {}# {'name': str_view_name}
headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}
data = {
"mode": "hudson.model.ListView",
"Submit": "OK",
"name": str_view_name
}

Try 1

result = requests.post(url, params=params, data={'json':json.dumps(data)}, headers=headers)
print result.text.encode('UTF-8')
print str_view_name

error is:

Version 0.1.11 was last pushed on 2012-07-05 and there have been a lot of good changes since then.

get_downstream_jobs
get_downstream_job_names
get_downstream_builds

Many jenkinsapi objects have a method called id() which returns a string identifier. You can see this in Node and Job.

Unfortunately id is an over-used expression, and is also a built-in symbol in Python. To avoid confusion we should rename all instances of id() to get_name() which I think is a more Pythonic convention.

Can anybody speak out if you object to this change?

Should be split into two folders:

• Those which explain how to do stuff in JenkinsAPI
• Those which explain how JenkinsAPI does stuff (low level examples)

Hi there,

I am trying to use either this library or python-jenkins, but have failed to connect to a Jenkins server that requires authentication. Without authentication, everything works well.

Supposing my username is "kenn" and my password is "foobar" and my Jenkins server is at "https://jenkins.example.com"

This works (as does the Jenkins web interface, of course)

wget --auth-no-challenge --http-user=kenn --http-password=foobar https://jenkins.example.com/api/python

I have also used python-jenkins and confirmed that works. But this does not:

from jenkinsapi import jenkins
jenkins.Jenkins("https://jenkins.example.com", username = "kenn", password = "foobar")

It results in the following output, where I have turned on logging in ipython and added the password to the debug message. I have confirmed that when the password is wrong it also has this output.

I have confirmed that if I just put a totally random password in, I get the same result.

Hi,

Since the v1.502 of Jenkins, jobs can not be launched with GET params.
There is this message :
"You must use POST method to trigger builds ..."

For this url for example :
http://ic.services.local/jenkins/job/my_job/buildWithParameters?my_param=test

And there is the same problem with your API. In the get_build_triggerurl function, you're calling the url "buildWithParameters?" with GET param.

Is there another way to call a job with parameter ?
Or is it a real issue ?

I'll try to fix the problem and I will post the hotfix here.

BR,

Eric

Hi, Salim

There are still issues with recent refactoring that I am encountering here. As we discussed in email, it is hard to do history rewrite for master.

Could you create 'stable' branch instead? I found that 6fbb3ea is last known good commit for this branch.

Thanks!

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place, I just had a look at the library and it looks great. I am trying to see if I can use the create_node method to start of a instance on Amazon EC2/Eucalyptus cloud and get the slave agent installed on that instance.

If there are any code snippet/examples to get a better understanding that would be great.

Again, thanks a lot for this library and all the best!

Cheers,
Deependra

Subject says it all, the package on PyPI lacks files and cannot be installed.

Base functionality of this package is broken right now. This commit 6a5505a is related to my issue, i guess.

'get_jobs_list' in jenkins.py contains a "print" statement with debug info, yuck!
This makes the new version of jenkinsapi unusable for us.

I've tried using my google account but failed to get job. The Jenkins server is using "Google Apps SSO (with OpenID) " to do the authentication.

I am somewhat new to Python, so I apologize if I have misread the code.

It appears that getitem() iterates through self.get_jobs(). get_jobs() will create a Job instance for each jobname until it finds a match on the requested jobname. Each of these instance creations requires http requests to get job info. When you have a large number of jobs, this can be costly. I would propose something like the following to minimize the http requests.

def __getitem__(self, jobname):
    """
    Get a job by name
    :param jobname: name of job, str
    :return: Job obj
    """
    for info in self._data["jobs"]:
        if info["name"] == jobname:
            return Job(info["url"], info["name"], jenkins_obj=self)
    raise UnknownJob(jobname)

delete_job make a call to get_job without the auth info. This results in a 403 if auth is enabled.

My jenkins has login data, so accessing http://somewhere/jenkins with a browser leads to a redirect to http://somewhere/jenkins/login.

When now doing artifact.save(path) I get a file that is just the HTML redirect page. The other methods I used (traversing the jobs and builds) had no problems with logging in.

My code is like this:
jenkins = jenkinsapi.jenkins.Jenkins($MY_URL)
myJob = jenkins.get_job($MY_JOB_NAME)
config = myJob.get_config()

When running the code I got this:

File "........./test_jenkins.py", line 37, in run
config = myJob.get_config()
File "............/jenkinsapi/job.py", line 212, in get_config
return self.hit_url("%(baseurl)s/config.xml" % self.dict)
File "................../jenkinsbase.py", line 89, in hit_url
stream = fn_urlopen( url )
File ".............../urllib2.py", line 398, in open
response = meth(req, response)
File "................../urllib2.py", line 511, in http_response
'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs)
File "................../urllib2.py", line 436, in error
return self._call_chain(_args)
File "..................../urllib2.py", line 370, in _call_chain
result = func(_args)
File "................/urllib2.py", line 519, in http_error_default
raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp)
HTTPError: HTTP Error 500: Internal Server Error

I've investigated this issue for some time, and found that, the URL using in 'self.hit_url()' method is incorrect.
It should be like 'http://myJenkinsBaseURL/job/MyJob/config.xml', but actually it is 'http://myJenkinsBaseURL/job/MyJob//config.xml'.
This is because the job.py compose the URL like this '"%(baseurl)s/config.xml" % self.dict'. However, I found that in the 'self.dict', the base url is like this 'http://myJenkinsBaseURL/job/MyJob/'. So I got two slash (//) in the URL which is incorrect. If I call job.hit_url() with the correct URL, I can get the right config XML string.

Is this an issue with my Jenkins setting? Or is this an issue in the API? How can I overcome it?
I am using Jenkins 1.464 and API 0.1.9.

Thank you!
