Monitoring network folder using FSTrigger plugin

[Ram D]

Hi All,

Greetings!

Use case: I have to monitor (polling folder) a network folder for build artifacts (.zip files). When ever there is new .zip file I have to copy it and trigger downstream builds.

Solution: FSTrigger plugin - seems to do the work of polling folder and and if changes present in target, build is triggered.

Question: How do I provide a network path for polling which requires username and password to access it. e.g. \\100.1.1.1\abc\pqr\xyz\pqr\*.zip 

If I open this in file system explorer it asks for username (with domain) and password in order to open it. How to pass such parameters in FSTrigger plugin. 

More info: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/FSTrigger+Plugin

Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Regards,

Ramesh

http://superuser.com/questions/344775/passing-unc-username-and-password-within-a-unc-path suggests that there is no syntax which will allow you to embed the username and password in the network path.  You might need to assure that network path is already mounted on your Windows agents.  You could attach a label to Windows agents which have it mounted, then restrict the job to only run on those labels.

Hi Mark,

Thanks, I realized it soon enough. But thought mounting is was just a workaround for this query.

Your answer showed me that is just the only solution available.
