Introduce a boolean parameter in the watch-release notification for compatibility with M2Release plugin
Closed this issue · 1 comments
A job in Jenkins may use the M2 Release plugin in the same job used for a regular Maven project
However, the job notification screen in Jenkins does not allow you to fire notifications to proddbot only when a release happens (see screenshot below)
Fortunately, an environment variable is set (IS_M2RELEASEBUILD) and it would be nice if we could pass this variable to the given URL so proddbot could know when a given notification should trigger the watch-release-add IRC command to notify users.
As this parameter may not be provided, and the notification URL is used by other projects (WildFly Swarm for example) the expected behavior would be to not trigger the watch-release-add command when the parameter is explicitly false.
| Parameter (name TBD) | Triggers watch-release-add? |
|---|---|
release_build=true |
Yes |
release_build=false |
No |
| (not provided) | Yes |
I named the parameter create_watch, and it should work as you described above. Let me know if it doesn't :)
