NAME Jenkins::API - A wrapper around the Jenkins API VERSION version 0.12 SYNOPSIS This is a wrapper around the Jenkins API. use Jenkins::API; my $jenkins = Jenkins::API->new({ base_url => 'http://jenkins:8080', api_key => 'username', api_pass => 'apitoken', }); my $status = $jenkins->current_status(); my @not_succeeded = grep { $_->{color} ne 'blue' } @{$status->{jobs}}; # { # 'color' => 'red', # 'name' => 'Test-Project', # 'url' => 'http://jenkins:8080/job/Test-Project/', # } my $success = $jenkins->create_job($project_name, $config_xml); ... ATTRIBUTES Specify these attributes to the constructor of the Jenkins::API object if necessary. base_url This is the base url for your jenkins installation. This is commonly running on port 8080 so it's often something like http://jenkins:8080 api_key This is the username for the basic authentication if you have it turned on. If you don't, don't specify it. Note that Jenkins returns 403 error codes if authentication is required but hasn't been specified. A common setup is to allow build statuses to be read but triggering builds and making configuration changes to require authentication. Check "response_code" after making a call that fails to see if it is an authentication failure. my $success = $jenkins->trigger_build($job_name); unless($success) { if($jenkins->response_code == 403) { print "Auth failure\n"; } else { print $jenkins->response_content; } } api_pass The api token for basic auth. Go to the Jenkins wiki page on authenticating scripted clients for information on getting an API token for your user to use for authentication. METHODS check_jenkins_url Checks the url provided to the api has a Jenkins server running on it. It returns the version number of the Jenkins server if it is running. $jenkins->check_jenkins_url; # 1.460 current_status Returns the current status of the server as returned by the API. This is a hash containing a fairly comprehensive list of what's going on. $jenkins->current_status(); # { # 'assignedLabels' => [ # {} # ], # 'description' => undef, # 'jobs' => [ # { # 'color' => 'blue', # 'name' => 'Jenkins-API', # 'url' => 'http://jenkins:8080/job/Jenkins-API/' # }, # 'mode' => 'NORMAL', # 'nodeDescription' => 'the master Jenkins node', # 'nodeName' => '', # 'numExecutors' => 2, # 'overallLoad' => {}, # 'primaryView' => { # 'name' => 'All', # 'url' => 'http://jenkins:8080/' # }, # 'quietingDown' => bless( do{\(my $o = 0)}, 'JSON::XS::Boolean' ), # 'slaveAgentPort' => 0, # 'useCrumbs' => $VAR1->{'quietingDown'}, # 'useSecurity' => $VAR1->{'quietingDown'}, # 'views' => [ # { # 'name' => 'All', # 'url' => 'http://jenkins:8080/' # } # ] # } It is also possible to pass two parameters to the query to refine or expand the data you get back. The tree parameter allows you to select specific elements. The example from the Jenkins documentation , tree=> 'jobs[name],views[name,jobs[name]]' demonstrates the syntax nicely. The other parameter you can pass is depth, by default it's 0, if you set it higher it dumps a ton of data. $jenkins->current_status({ extra_params => { tree => 'jobs[name,color]' }});; # { # 'jobs' => [ # { # 'color' => 'blue', # 'name' => 'Jenkins-API', # }, # ] # } $jenkins->current_status({ extra_params => { depth => 1 }}); # returns everything and the kitchen sink. It is also possible to only look at a subset of the data. Most urls you can see on the website in Jenkins can be accessed. If you have a job named Test-Project for example with the url /job/Test-Project you can specify the path_parts => ['job', 'Test-Project'] to look at the data for that job alone. $jenkins->current_status({ path_parts => [qw/job Test-Project/], extra_params => { depth => 1 }, }); # just returns the data relating to job Test-Project. # returning it in detail. The method will die saying 'Invalid response' if the server doesn't respond as it expects, or die with a JSON decoding error if the JSON parsing fails. get_job_details Returns detail about the job specified. $job_details = $jenkins->get_job_details('Test-Project'); # { # 'actions' => [], # 'buildable' => bless( do{\(my $o = 0)}, 'JSON::PP::Boolean' ), # 'builds' => [], # 'color' => 'disabled', # 'concurrentBuild' => $VAR1->{'buildable'}, # 'description' => '', # 'displayName' => 'Test-Project', # 'displayNameOrNull' => undef, # 'downstreamProjects' => [], # 'firstBuild' => undef, # 'healthReport' => [], # 'inQueue' => $VAR1->{'buildable'}, # 'keepDependencies' => $VAR1->{'buildable'}, # 'lastBuild' => undef, # 'lastCompletedBuild' => undef, # 'lastFailedBuild' => undef, # 'lastStableBuild' => undef, # 'lastSuccessfulBuild' => undef, # 'lastUnstableBuild' => undef, # 'lastUnsuccessfulBuild' => undef, # 'name' => 'Test-Project', # 'nextBuildNumber' => 1, # 'property' => [], # 'queueItem' => undef, # 'scm' => {}, # 'upstreamProjects' => [], # 'url' => 'http://jenkins-t2:8080/job/Test-Project/' # } The information can be refined in the same way as "current_status" using extra_params. view_status Provides the status of the specified view. The list of views is provided in the general status report. $jenkins->view_status('MyView'); # { # 'busyExecutors' => {}, # 'queueLength' => {}, # 'totalExecutors' => {}, # 'totalQueueLength' => {} # } # { # 'description' => undef, # 'jobs' => [ # { # 'color' => 'blue', # 'name' => 'Test', # 'url' => 'http://jenkins-t2:8080/job/Test/' # } # ], # 'name' => 'Test', # 'property' => [], # 'url' => 'http://jenkins-t2:8080/view/Test/' # } This method allows the same sort of refinement as the "current_status" method. To just get the job info from the view for example you can do essentially the same, use Data::Dumper; my $view_list = $api->current_status({ extra_params => { tree => 'views[name]' }}); my @views = grep { $_ ne 'All' } map { $_->{name} } @{$view_list->{views}}; for my $view (@views) { my $view_jobs = $api->view_status($view, { extra_params => { tree => 'jobs[name,color]' }}); print Dumper($view_jobs); } # { # 'jobs' => [ # { # 'color' => 'blue', # 'name' => 'Test' # } # ] # } trigger_build Trigger a build, $success = $jenkins->trigger_build('Test-Project'); If you need to specify a token you can pass that like this, $jenkins->trigger_build('Test-Project', { token => $token }); Note that the success response is simply to indicate that the build has been scheduled, not that the build has succeeded. trigger_build_with_parameters Trigger a build with parameters, $success = $jenkins->trigger_build_with_parameters('Test-Project', { Parameter => 'Value' } ); The method behaves the same way as trigger_build. build_queue This returns the items in the build queue. $jenkins->build_queue(); This allows the same extra_params as the "current_status" call. The depth and tree parameters work in the same way. See the Jenkins api documentation for more details. The method will die saying 'Invalid response' if the server doesn't respond as it expects, or die with a JSON decoding error if the JSON parsing fails. load_statistics This returns the load statistics for the server. $jenkins->load_statistics(); # { # 'busyExecutors' => {}, # 'queueLength' => {}, # 'totalExecutors' => {}, # 'totalQueueLength' => {} # } This also allows the same extra_params as the "current_status" call. The depth and tree parameters work in the same way. See the Jenkins api documentation for more details. The method will die saying 'Invalid response' if the server doesn't respond as it expects, or die with a JSON decoding error if the JSON parsing fails. create_job Takes the project name and the xml for a config file and gets Jenkins to create the job. my $success = $api->create_job($project_name, $config_xml); project_config This method returns the configuration for the project in xml. my $config = $api->project_config($project_name); set_project_config This method allows you to set the configuration for the project using xml. my $success = $api->set_project_config($project_name, $config); delete_project Delete the project from Jenkins. my $success = $api->delete_project($project_name); general_call This is a catch all method for making a call to the API. Jenkins is extensible with plugins which can add new API end points. We can not predict all of these so this method allows you to call those functions without needing a specific method. general_call($url_parts, $args); my $response = $api->general_call( ['job', $job, 'api', 'json'], { method => 'GET', extra_params => { tree => 'color,description' }, decode_json => 1, expected_response_code => 200, }); # does a GET /job/$job/api/json?tree=color%2Cdescription # decodes the response as json # dies if a 200 response isn't returned. The arguments hash can contain these elements, * method Valid options are the HTTP verbs, make sure they are in caps. * extra_params Pass in extra parameters the method expects. * decode_json Defaulted to true. * expected_response_code Defaulted to 200 response_code This method returns the HTTP response code from our last request to the Jenkins server. This may be useful when an error occurred. response_content This method returns the content of the HTTP response from our last request to the Jenkins server. This may be useful when an error occurrs. BUGS The API wrapper doesn't deal with jenkins installations not running from the root path. I don't actually know if that's an install option, but the internal url building just doesn't deal with that situation properly. If you want that fixing a patch is welcome. Please report any bugs or feature requests to through the web interface at https://github.com/colinnewell/Jenkins-API/issues/new.
