Bootstrap a Jenkins instance configured for Jenkins slack plugin testing.

Bootstrap Jenkins to test Slack Plugin

The Jenkins Slack plugin publishes build information to Slack teams. This project is meant to bootstrap Jenkins from scratch and pre-configure it to use the Slack plugin for testing.

Instructions

Provision Jenkins with slack configured

To provision Jenkins and create jobs useful for plugin testing.

unset JENKINS_HOME
./slack_bootstrap.sh

Visit http://localhost:8080/ to see Jenkins running with Slack configured.

Control Jenkins

The provision_jenkins.sh script is what controls slack running on localhost. It has a few helper commands associated with it. Before running any commands it is recommended to add the scripts directory to your local PATH environment variable.

PATH="./scripts:$PATH"
unset JENKINS_HOME

Now control the Jenkins service.

provision_jenkins.sh stop
provision_jenkins.sh start
provision_jenkins.sh restart

See other options.

provision_jenkins.sh --help

Delete Jenkins

Clean your ${JENKINS_HOME} but don't delete jenkins.war or jenkins-cli.jar.

provision_jenkins.sh clean

Completely purge your Jenkins instance by deleting all files and folders created by the bootstrap.

provision_jenkins.sh purge
