CancelDownstream

CancelDownstream

Closed this issue a year ago · 5 comments

First of all amazing script. I was looking for this script for a really longtime. Quick question so when i secute the Groovy Script as Postbuild step i am seeing an exception

No signature of method: Script1.CancelDownstream() is applicable for argument types:(hudson.model.Hudson, hudson.model.FreeStyleBuild, java.io.PrintStream)

Do i need to import the hudson model?

Glad you're finding this useful!

I have to admit I don't really know groovy at all and just tried things until something worked. Here is how we call the script:

new CancelDownstream(manager.hudson, manager.build, manager.listener.logger).run()

We also have this in our "additional classpath" section: /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/make-check/workspace/jenkins-tools/Cancel.jar

I hope that helps!

Thanks for the reply. So this need to be added to the groovy postbuild? Or can I use any groovy plugin ?

We do it in groovy postbuild. I assume it would work similarly in other plugins, but the intention was to cancel at the end of a job (when it fails), so groovy postbuild makes the most sense.

Yup that totally makes sense. I think I might have to tweak the script for my needs. We have a downstream jobs waiting in the queue when upstream job is already running. The downstream jobs triggered because of the SCM change. So I am looking for killing/cancelling the downstream jobs. I think in this case it is triggered only when the job is failed.
