---------------------------------------
Summary: buildWithParameters: return a JSON string when client
request it through content-type header
Key: JENKINS-13546
URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13546
Project: Jenkins
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core
Affects Versions: current
Environment: Jenkins 1.460 on Debian Squeeze
Reporter: Reynald Borer
Right now, every call on the buildWithParameters URL will always redirect to
the job page on success. If this API is queried through an Ajax call, it should
return a JSON output of the current job instead. This can easily be detected
based on the Content-Type http header sent by the client.
This is useful for example if one wants to trigger a parametrized build from
jQuery, and parse the result. Right now, jQuery will always get back the HTML
page of the job, which makes it hard to do any error handling.
