runjenkins

Simple tool for running a list of jenkins jobs

Tool for running jenkins jobs from cli, based on yaml configs. The ideas is that you have a single creds file, then put a config file in each repo/workspace. Then add it to your commit hook/alias/function/script/whatever so that you can run jobs on commit.

I know the obvious way to run jobs on commit is to open a PR, and use branch source or GHPRB. However when developing JJB jobs, I often want to run a job that runs JJB, then the job that was created, and possibly some other test jobs. This tool lets me automate that.

Example Creds File:

---
 url:  https://myjenkins.example.com/
 user: foo
 password: bah

Example Conf File:

---
- myjob:
    myparamkey: myparamvalue
- mynextjob:
    parama: 1
    paramb: false
- parallel group: # <-- name arbitrary, parallel detected by val=list
                        rather than dict
  - myparalleljob:
      param: val
  - otherparalleljob:
      param: val
