Hi,

I'm developing a pipeline job. The console is indispensible in this, not surprisingly.

But it's getting harder and harder to find what I need in the endless stream of text, combining the outputs from what is currently a master and two slaves (I expect the number of slaves will grow).

Is there a plugin that makes life easier in this respect. Perhaps allowing filters (e.g  which node) and also collapsing of sections?

Thanks

Jon

This plugin advertises to allow collapsing sections of the console

That plugin does not seem to support Pipeline.

Yes, I saw that, and it might be useful, but it doesn't seem to work with the pipeline.

Did you give a try to Blue Ocean? https://jenkins.io/projects/blueocean/

I did,

It seems promising, but really not that great at the moment.

The steps view is close to what I'd like to see, the facility to click on a parallel branch and see that is nice. But most of the steps are collapsed down to something completely useless like "print message". So let's say I was printing out a build summary. What I would see in the steps view is a series of collapsed sections saying "print message" and if I click on any one of those, I get just one bit of the summary.

What I would like to see is a collapsed section saying "OSX Debig Build Summary", and when I expand it, I see the whole summary.

It could also do with the option of expanded and contractiing a range of sections.

On top of that Blue Ocean as a whole seems very unfinished, is slow at the moment and loses me plugins I'm using and also doesn't display the build description (which I actually use to show build progress and results.
