---------------------------------------
Summary: build expiry step
Key: JENKINS-13508
URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13508
Project: Jenkins
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: core
Reporter: Johan Peeters
Priority: Critical
currently, actions can be specified in the pre-build, build and post-build
step. I am requesting that it becomes possible to specify actions to be taken
when a build expires.
Increasingly, Jenkins is being used for jobs that go beyond building in the
strict sense of the word. Often such jobs allocate resources that are not
cleaned up by vanilla build expiry. Hence it should be possible to specify what
clean-up actions should be taken additional to the vanilla implementation.
Artifact deployment is a good example of a use case where this feature
could/should be used; deploying on a remote server involves copying artifacts
to this server, where they take up disk space. When a run expires, it should be
possible to specify that the version of the artifacts installed by the expired
build should be deleted.
