Triggering Jenkins job (behind firewall)

[Robert Grześkowiak]

Hi,

I am currently trying to solve problem with triggering Jenkins jobs, which is behind firewall. Is there any good way to do that?

I found a plugin https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/poll-mailbox-trigger-plugin but I am looking for some other solution.

There are many jenkins servers behind firewalls in different corporations, I am pretty sure that someone found that problem as well.

I am looking forward for any suggestions.

Thank you in advance!

Robert

You'll probably need to further describe what you want to use for the trigger, and what is allowed to cross your firewall.

For example, the GitHub Webhook (from the GitHub plugin) will allow a GitHub repository outside your firewall to cause the Jenkins job inside your firewall to poll GitHub checking for changes.  A similar capability is available for other providers (like BitBucket).

Sure, I should have been more specific. 

I would like to trigger jobs manually. One of the solutions is that email triggering plugin, but would be even better to trigger that via curl, or have some additional layer which extracts the interface. The firewall unfortunately blocks a lot.... But there is a small chance I could convince IT to open some ports for that. I just need to know which one would be safe and easy.

Thanks!
