Jenkins CI is a sweet continuous integration platform. Jenkins.rb makes it easy to get started, add/remove Ruby jobs and slave nodes; either from a CLI or an API.

gem install jenkins
You do not need to download Jenkins CI. It is bundled in the RubyGem.
Jenkins.rb is continuously tested using Jenkins at http://jenkins.thefrontside.net/job/jenkins.rb/.
The jenkins
application allows you to see the projects/jobs and their statuses:
$ jenkins list --host jenkins.thefrontside.net --port 80
jenkins.rb - http://jenkins.thefrontside.net/job/jenkins.rb/
TheRubyRacer - http://jenkins.thefrontside.net/job/TheRubyRacer/
Alternately use environment variables:
$ JENKINS_HOST=jenkins.thefrontside.net JENKINS_PORT=80 jenkins list
Alternately, it will remember the last Jenkins CI master used.
$ jenkins list
To run your own Jenkins server (by default opens at http://localhost:3001):
Usage: jenkins server [options]
-p, --port [3001] run jenkins server on this port
-c, --control [3002] set the shutdown/control port
--daemon fork into background and run as a daemon
--logfile [PATH] redirect log messages to this file
-k, --kill send shutdown signal to control port
--home [/Users/drnic/.jenkins/server] use this directory to store server data
The remaining CLI tasks are for communicating with a running Jenkins server; either the one created above or hosted remotely.
To list Jobs/Projects on a Jenkins server:
Usage: jenkins list [options]
To add Jobs/Projects (create a Job) on a Jenkins server:
Usage: jenkins create PROJECT_PATH [options]
--public-scm use public scm URL
--template [ruby] template of job steps (available: rails,rails3,ruby,rubygem,erlang)
--assigned-node [ASSIGNED-NODE] only use slave nodes with this label
--override override if job exists
--no-build create job without initial build
To trigger a Job to build:
Usage: jenkins build
To remove a Job from a Jenkins server:
Usage: jenkins remove PROJECT_PATH
To list slaves on a Jenkins server (including itself):
Usage: jenkins nodes
To add a remote machine/remote VM to a Jenkins server as a slave:
Usage: jenkins add_node SLAVE_HOST
--slave-port [22] SSH port for Jenkins to connect to slave node
--label [LABEL] Labels for a job --assigned_node to match against to select a slave. --master-key [MASTER-KEY] Location of master public key or identity file
--slave-fs [SLAVE-FS] Location of file system on slave for Jenkins to use
--name [NAME] Name of slave node (default SLAVE_HOST)
--slave-user [deploy] SSH user for Jenkins to connect to slave node
For all client-side commands, there are --host
and --port
options flags. These are cached after first used, so are only required for the first request to a Jenkins CI server. For example:
jenkins create . --host localhost --port 3001
jenkins list
jenkins create . --override
Alternately, $JENKINS_HOST
and $JENKINS_PORT
can be provided in lieu of the cached target Jenkins CI server
JENKINS_HOST=localhost JENKINS_PORT=3001 jenkins list
The dependencies for the gem and for developing the gem are managed by Bundler.
gem install bundler
git clone http://github.com/cowboyd/jenkins.rb.git
bundle install
The test suites expects Jenkins to speak English. If you are not using an English locale prepare the terminal session running the test suite with:
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
The test suite is run with:
rake
This launches a Jenkins server, runs cucumber features, and kills the Jenkins server.
Alternately, manually launch the Jenkins server, run features and close the Jenkins server:
rake jenkins:server:test
rake cucumber:ok
rake jenkins:server:killtest
