Yes, I would not be happy too :-) But I have supposed that someone with administration privileges could get the global configuration of Jenkins like it's possible with job configuration.
My goal is to compare my local global config with a remote one. I'm creating a plugin to compare job configuration and have the ability to merge some parts of the remote configuration file (using Remote API). I wish to do the same thing with global configuration of both local and remote Jenkins. 2012/7/25 Stephen Connolly <[email protected]> > > > On 25 July 2012 11:09, Stephen Connolly > <[email protected]>wrote: > >> sounds like a security issue. >> >> > By that ^^^ I mean I would not be happy if somebody could easily do that > to my instance as there can often be secrets embedded in the global config > (because of lack of adoption by plugins of the credentials store that I > convinced by employers to OSS earlier this year) > > >> you should be able to access it via the jenkins cli interface and a >> suitable groovy script ;-) >> >> >> On 25 July 2012 11:04, Michaël Pailloncy <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> Thanks for your reply. >>> Excuse me, I have not phrased my question correctly. >>> But I wanna get the global config.xml of Jenkins, not the specific >>> config file of a job. >>> >>> >>> 2012/7/25 Stephen Connolly <[email protected]> >>> >>>> a user with the extended read permission can get a job's config.xml >>>> from an URL like >>>> >>>> >>>> $jenkins_scheme://$jenkins_host:$jenkins:port/$jenkins_context/jobs/$job_name/config.xml >>>> >>>> e.g. >>>> >>>> http://localhost:8080/jobs/foo/config.xml >>>> >>>> >>>> On 25 July 2012 10:19, Michaël Pailloncy <[email protected]> wrote: >>>> >>>>> Nobody has never had this problematic? >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> 2012/7/23 mpapo - Michaël Pailloncy <[email protected]> >>>>> >>>>>> Hi, >>>>>> >>>>>> Is it possible to access to a remote config.xml file from another >>>>>> Jenkins with the remote API ? >>>>>> I would like to get it like I can get a job config.xml file. >>>>>> >>>>>> Thanks in advance ! >>>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>> >>> >> >
