This simple go script will iterate over all jenkins jobs and will ask for the latest build. If the build failed it will write a 1 to graphite with the predefined metric plus job name.
You can use this to have a build failed metric inside your grafana boards.
The script assume that jenkins serves his API over https and the graphite gateway listens on tcp.
jenkins-build-metrcs -u foo -t bar -s jenkins.example.com
- -u a user configured in jenkins
- -t the users token, this is not the password
- -s the host name of the jenkins server
- -p the prefix for the graphite metric: default is
backend.marketing.jenkins - -gp the port for your graphite metrics gateway: default
3002 - -gh the host name of your graphite metrics gateway: default
