Hi all, This is perhaps a bit outside the normal Jenkins setup, but I need to have a job run periodically, and that job will determine whether or not another job should be run.
Right now I have this working by having the first job change a file and the second job trigger via FSTrigger. However, this doesn't work when using different nodes, because the FSTrigger monitors on the node assigned to the second job, not necessarily the first job. All the research I've found suggests doing one of two things: a. Have the monitoring job return success / fail depending on whether the second job should run, and use the normal downstream job mechanism. This seems less than ideal because the first job doesn't really /fail/ per se, it runs and makes a decision. To me, a failure means it couldn't make a decision one way or the other. b. Have the monitoring job invoke the second job via remote call, e.g., with curl. Our Jenkins installation is behind a centralized SSO system, so that makes life a bit more difficult, but not impossible. Is there any way to perhaps have a job execute based on the output of the monitoring job? Or any other way to do this? --Jim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
