Add Build Parameter In Jenkins Build Schedule


Answer :

Basically, with the 'Build periodically' option you can't schedule a Jenkins job with parameters.

However, to schedule a job at different times that needs to use different environments, you have to use the parameterized-scheduler plugin or search for it in (Manage Jenkins -> Manage Plugins -> Parameterized Scheduler).

Examples:

 # Parameter1  H/15 * * * * %Parameter1  # Parameter2  H/30 * * * * %Parameter2

Remember you have to have your parameters already setup because the plugin is visible only for jobs with parameters.

The Node and Label parameter plugin can help since it allows you to select individual nodes assuming your different servers qa1 and qa2 are already configured. Hope that clarifies things for you.


With the native Jenkins crontab, it's not possible.

But it should be possible with this plugin: https://github.com/jwmach1/parameterized-scheduler

You have to fork the repo and build this plugin + do a manual installation.

This tutorial explains how to build a custom plugin: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Plugin+tutorial

(Setting Up Environment + Building a Plugin)


Maybe not exactly what you want, but it is an interesting hack I found out so I decided to share. You can programmatically set parameters of Jenkins job depending on the environment.

# check if job was trigered by timer if [ $(env | grep -E '^BUILD_CAUSE=TIMERTRIGGER$') ] ; then    # your logic here, utilise the power of bash      if [ $(date +"%H") -eq 16 ] ; then PARAM=VALUE_1 ; fi   if [ $(date +"%H") -eq 17 ] ; then PARAM=VALUE_2 ; fi fi

Converting A String To Int In Groovy

Answer : Use the toInteger() method to convert a String to an Integer , e.g. int value = "99".toInteger() An alternative, which avoids using a deprecated method (see below) is int value = "66" as Integer If you need to check whether the String can be converted before performing the conversion, use String number = "66" if (number.isInteger()) { int value = number as Integer } Deprecation Update In recent versions of Groovy one of the toInteger() methods has been deprecated. The following is taken from org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.StringGroovyMethods in Groovy 2.4.4 /** * Parse a CharSequence into an Integer * * @param self a CharSequence * @return an Integer * @since 1.8.2 */ public static Integer toInteger(CharSequence self) { return Integer.valueOf(self.toString().trim()); } /** * @deprecated Use the CharSequence version * @see #toInteger(CharSequence) */ @Deprecated public static Integer toInteger(String self) { return toInteg

"Cannot Create Cache Directory /home//.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org/, Or Directory Is Not Writable. Proceeding Without Cache"

Answer : if anyone pass through here, this is shorter solution: sudo chown -R $USER $HOME/.composer it seems to me the group information is missing in your command sudo chown -R <user> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org Shoud be sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org But to avoid other permission issues, I would rather advise: sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache (you'll need access to other folders in there) and sudo chown <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer To make sure your user has permissions enough on the global composer folder. Mind the missing recursion so the user don't own keys created by root. If you need to find out the group: groups <user>

Android How Can I Convert A String To A Editable

Answer : As you probably found out, Editable is an interface so you cannot call new Editable() . However an Editable is nothing more than a String with Spannables, so use SpannableStringBuilder: Editable editable = new SpannableStringBuilder("Pass a string here"); If you only want to change the Spannables, never the text itself, you can use a basic SpannableString. Use Editable.Factory.getInstance().newEditable(str) From the android documentation: Returns a new SpannedStringBuilder from the specified CharSequence. You can override this to provide a different kind of Spanned.
