multibranchPipelineJob does not run the initial branch index after creation.

[Eric Long]

My goal.  All jobs created and running from code.  

There is currently one speed bump.  Branch indexing of a newly created multibranch pipeline does not occur after creating the item.  This means that for each new multibranch pipeline I need to manually run the branch index to get the jobs running.

Example JobDSL code

multibranchPipelineJob('Multibranch'){

    branchSources {

        github {

            repoOwner('kishorebhatia')

            repository('pipeline-as-code-demo')

        }

    }

    orphanedItemStrategy {

        discardOldItems {

            numToKeep(20)

        }

    }

}

Any idea why this is the case?  

Thanks for your time,

Eric

Is the branch indexing triggered when you create the job manually?

You can schedule any job from the DSL script using the queue method:

Daniel,

Thanks for the reply.

Branch indexing is triggered after creating the job manually.

I wonder if the schedule job will work on to index a multibranch Pipeline job.  I'll have to try it.

Thanks,

Eric
