Hi,
I am trying to create a builder plugin, which will basically work like the
following:
1.) Collect a few properties from the environment, the workspace, and
possibly some other sources (In the end, there should be a minimal UI, but
that's for the future.)
2.) Create a very simple Ant script, which defines some properties, and
invokes a more complex Ant script, which is located elsewhere.
(That scripts location is one of the above properties.) The more
complex Ant scripts purpose is to create a deliverable.
Now, I have a couple of beginners questions:
a) I will require some temporary directory, or the like, in which to
operate. Asssuming, that my workspace is checked out from Git, or
Subversion, I want that directory to be located outside of the checked out
tree. Can I ask Jenkins for a suitable location?
How?
b) To build my plugin, I can of course specify ant.jar as a Maven
dependency. However, it seems to me that this is inappropriate within
Jenkins. I'd expect, that there is some possibility to express something
like "I want the Jenkins Ant plugin as a dependency on my class path", so
that Ant is present, and usable. True, or false?
Thanks in advance,
Jochen
