Ignacio Albors updated JENKINS-12057:
-------------------------------------
Component/s: core
(was: next-executions)
> Start other jobs after a monitored job
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: JENKINS-12057
> URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-12057
> Project: Jenkins
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: current
> Reporter: Salim Fadhley
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently the "Monitor an external job" allows users to do nothing more than
> track an external job which has run. Would it also be possible to do some
> things that a freestyle job can do such as:
> * Trigger one or more other jobs.
> * Jabber / Email alerts
> * Use plugins which read stdout (e.g. textfinder) to generate Pass/Fail
> Rationale:
> We have some jobs which cannot currently be triggered from Hudson - they are
> run as Cron tasks or Windows Scheduler. We are able to use the External-Job
> feature to keep a log of when they ran, however we also want to trigger
> additional processes after these jobs execute.
> For example, we have a job whose purpose is to re-initialize a system which
> must run continuously. This cannot be run from a regular Hudson slave because
> the program intentionally leaves file & process handles open after it
> terminates. We would like to trigger some additional processes (e.g. validate
> that our data feeds are working) as soon as the process has completed.
