Hi guys,
I am a newbie when it comes to Jenkins, I've only worked with it for the past two months. But there are sometime things i need that i just can't find an answer to no matter how much time i keep spending on research...
My newest tough one is memory metrics. I use Jenkins to build a C project for a micro-controller, at the end of the build i run some homegrown tools to parse the mapfile and get some MCU metrics like total rom/ram and rom/ram per lib etc.... before Jenkins i use to put this info in a text file, now that i use Jenkins i thought it would be nice to have a chart (a pie chart would be soooo nice) on each successful build's page and a history on the project page.
I've done some research, and there is a plugin called "Plot" that can read a csv file and put it on the build's page, only problem is that it doesn't recognize the csv i'm generating, after being confident with the configuration of the plugin i notice a csv had been created in the Jenkins job folder, while i've put my csv in the workspace.... and for some reason my locale uses the actual comma for separation while the plugin has generated the header with semicolon separators, so then i try using the semicolons but still it won't show anything in the plot.
For some reason i can't shake the iddea that this plugin might do the job for me but i can't get it to work. can someone give me some tips on how this plugin works, and maybe a sample csv that works with the plugin would be nice.
Maybe there's a plugin out there that can make this work for me...?
Another idea i had was to use google's charts, which are nice and easy to work with, but again the problem is getting them to show up in jenkins.
Thanks.
