Re: Extend the InfluxDB plugin to send metrics from Serenity reports to InfluxDB

You mean from https://plugins.jenkins.io/serenity?

Currently, you could write custom data to InfluxDB, but then you would need to do the data parsing yourself in your job. However, that might be a bit too troublesome to do in a pipeline, and most probably something the pipeline isn't intended to do anyway.

Re: Extend the InfluxDB plugin to send metrics from Serenity reports to InfluxDB

Thanks Aleksi Simell - yes, I use https://plugins.jenkins.io/serenity

Would it be possible to add a Serenity generator to https://github.com/jenkinsci/influxdb-plugin/tree/development/src/main/java/jenkinsci/plugins/influxdb/generators? I'm happy to do the dev work if I can be given some guidance.

Re: Extend the InfluxDB plugin to send metrics from Serenity reports to InfluxDB

Make a fork from the plugin repository and create a new file for the generator. Pretty good guidelines can be found from other generators. You will most probably need the `buildAction` from the plugin and then it's just looking at the Serenity plugin code to get the correct data.

Finally, you will need to call the generator inside `InfluxDbPublicationService.java` to actually use the generator.

Additionally, unit tests for the generator would be nice I know the plugin lacks sufficient unit tests, but there should be some tests for other generators you can use as a base.
