Jenkins / JENKINS-61046 Allow plugins to force an update of an UpdateSite Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: James Nord Components: core Created: 2020-02-11 11:06 Priority: Minor Reporter: James Nord Currently plugins can request an asynchronous update of an `UpdateSite` but that request may or may not happen. the reasons it may not happen is that the UpdateSite was updated recently (and cached) however a plugin should still be able to force the update if it knows reasons why an update should be available.   removing the cache and then asking for an asynchronous update is a hacky solution - (especially if there is a transient error fetching the json) - so this request is to unrestrict updateDirectlyNow() Add Comment
