Scala plugin support

[Jeremy Marshall]

Hey 

I'm learning Scala as part of my actual job and thought developing a plugin for Jenkins in Scala would be an interesting way, as I know something about plugins.

I hit a road block whith classes and objects sharing the same name (which scala doesn't like) but then I found a plugin already built but not in the repository https://github.com/adamretter/jenkins-scala-plugin

The owner claims he tried to get it adopted but no one responded. https://github.com/adamretter/jenkins-scala-plugin/issues/2

Is there any chance this could be adopted?

I replied to the github issue with information on how to get it hosted in the jenkinsci group as a supported plugin.

I (finally) got this working

It needed the scala class files running through the annotation processing.

It only does 'hello world' but its a start

https://github.com/JeremyMarshall/hello-world-scala-plugin

It uses the gradle jpi plugin with the scala plugin

I'm not sure I understand, finally.
IIUC, the link you initially provided was about a plugin adding a Scala step in a job.

What you're trying to do is write a Jenkins plugin *in* Scala.

Though both are indeed interesting, they're not the same. Could you please clarify?

Also, as Alex explained in the github issue, we now have a dedicated jira project for hosting requests. This way now we don't forget about them like with an email here.

Possibly too, I guess we could host your hello-world-scala-plugin as IIRC we already have some of those example projects.

WDYT?

Thanks

I was looking at scala specifically and yes they are two issues. 

I posted my comment on here by accident as I had another thread. My plugin could be hosted. It is a bit raw and more a proof of concept
