[workflow plugin] use case question

[Patrick Bruneton]

Hi all,

I am trying to implement a use case with the workflow plugin.

I have two jobs, say build & test, that I want to run inside a pipeline. Sounds easy.

But I have a constraint:I want the two jobs to executed on the same slave.

So I tried something like this:

node('windows') {

   stage name: 'Build', concurrency: 1

   build 'build'

   stage name: 'Test', concurrency: 1

   build 'test'

}

But 'build' and 'test' are executed in their own slave, which is not the one allocated by 'node'. That seems logical.

Is there a way to force the builds to run a node?

I understand I could(/should) write the job logic directly in the pipeline, e.g.

node('windows') {

   stage name: 'Build', concurrency: 1

   // build stage details

   stage name: 'Test', concurrency: 1

   // test stage details

}

However, I am not sure I can do this, because my jobs exist already, and use plugins that do not seem to be supported by workflow (e.g. xUnit, Extended Email)

Any thought?

Thanks,

Patrick

Can you just set the Restrict where this project can be run checkbox in conjunction with the Label Expression param on the two subjobs?

[Patrick Bruneton]

No because I would have to restrict the jobs on a particular slaves.

I have many windows slaves.

If job 'build' gets executed on windows-slave-1 I want the 'test' to be executed on the same slave (and be executed immediately)

I think you would need the NodeLabel Parameter Plugin. And as Craig Rodrigues recently posted, that plugin is not yet compatible with Workflow, although he has proposed a fix:

It turns out that the NodeLabel Parameter plugin doesn't work with the workflow plugin:

I submitted this fix:

Hi,

Node Label Parameter Plugin version 1.7.1 and higher has my fix and now works with Workflow.
