workflow-step-api async step in freestyle projects

[felipe...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I've create a plugin that extends from Step/StepExecution and provides an asynchronous step, that waits for a callback to be triggered before proceeding (similar to webhook-step API plugin).

It works great with Pipelines, but I wonder if there is any way to make it work with Freestyle projects as well? 

I thought about extending a Builder and implementing SimpleBuildStep, then calling the asynchronous Step from within my builder. 

But I have no clue if this is a good potential path, so looking for any guidance you can provide.

The Step javadoc provides the following information, which made it more confusing to me:

"Extends from Describable to support UI-based instantiation. Your step should have a config.jelly allowing a user to configure its properties, and may have a help.html and/or help-fieldName.html, plus doEtc methods on the StepDescriptor for form validation, completion, and so on. "

Thanks in advance

Implementing a Builder and extending SimpleBuildStep is the way to go.

Can you provide further information on how on how to call my async Step from within the Builder's perform() method ?

I am not able to create a valid StepContext to be passed into the Step's start() method.
