About this library¶
Jenkins is the market leading continuous integration system, originally created by Kohsuke Kawaguchi. This API makes Jenkins even easier to use by providing an easy to use conventional python interface.
Jenkins (and It’s predecessor Hudson) are fantastic projects - but they are somewhat Java-centric. Thankfully the designers have provided an excellent and complete REST interface. This library wraps up that interface as more conventional python objects in order to make most Jenkins oriented tasks simpler.
This library can help you:
Query the test-results of a completed build
Get a objects representing the latest builds of a job
Search for artifacts by simple criteria
Block until jobs are complete
Install artifacts to custom-specified directory structures
username/password auth support for jenkins instances with auth turned on
Ability to search for builds by subversion revision
Ability to add/remove/query jenkins slaves
