Looking for a plugin: "show git tag tree" or "run groovy script and show results on a project page"

[Boris Brodski]

Dear Jenkins-Team,

My goal is to show on a Job main page (or on some Job special page) a Git "tree of tags", similar to

  $ gitk --tags --simplify-by-decoration

Put it simply: I would like to show all tags in a repository as a tree.

I thought about following two solutions:

1) Find/Write a Jenkins-plugin, that allows me to write a Groovy script and output the result HTML to the Job main page (e.g. as a project description) or output the result HTML on some new project-hosted page. Then implement the functionality in Groovy.

2) Find/Write a Jenkins-plugin, that solves the task directly without any Groovy.

Any suggestions on this?

Thank you!

Cheers,

Boris Brodski

Hi,

Sorry for the response delay.
I think a plugin for such functionality would be useful. Honestly, I would suggest using the approach #2, which seems to be a more narrow-specific feature. It may be also integrated to existing plugins.

For approach #1 IMHO there is no need in additional plugins, because the functionality can be more or less implemented via Scriptler Plugin with a very simple action plugin. Maybe it's a case for somehow implementing "Scripted actions" on the top of such plugin. Pipeline plugin may be also a good option

Hi,

cool! So how can I proceed with this? Which plugins do you have in mind, that I could extend?

Thank you!
