Send Email Based On Conditional

[Mark Bretl]

Hello Jenkins Users,

 

I am looking for a way to send an email, using Email-Ext plugin, based on the result of a custom conditional. Reading the Email-Ext page, it can be triggered with build result statuses, but that is a static list as far I can tell. The other way I thought of to send an email is using the run condition plugin since is able to be used with build-steps and publishers, through the flexible-publish plugin, but it does not work with the notifier plugins such as Email-Ext...so that is a dead end.

 

One 'ugly' workaround I have thought of would be to set the build result, based on a Boolean conditional, to an unused status such as 'Not Built' hoping it won't collide with it in the future. I would then use that to send an email with the Email-Ext plugin and trigger it on 'Not Built'.

 

Any thoughts on possible solutions?

There are two things you could do:

1) use a pre-send script to cancel the sending of the email if your condition is not met

2) wait for the next release in which I am adding a PreBuildScriptTrigger and an ScriptTrigger, which will allow you to determine your own method for when an email should be sent.

I'm trying to release more often, so I hope to have the script triggers in and do a release in two weeks. Hopefully that is not too long to wait. I could possibly give you an rc build earlier if you wanted.
