Filter steps/tasks of a job via a plugin ?

[Laurent Guilmette]

Hi All,


Jenkins is magnificent and allow to realize an enormous productivity.

Is it possible with a plugin to bypass certain task/step of a job?
 It would avoid overloading the job configuration which is sometimes already consequent ! And by the way It is better than manually update hundred of jobs !

So in a certain context for example I want to do not execute batch script, or the sonar postask, or the email forward postask, etc ....


I hope you understrand my question ! Thx a lot for reading, keep the good work.

Conditional Build Step Plugin should allow you to do that based on conditions like build parameters.

JENKINS-4819 tacks the manual disabling of build steps -- unfortunately my first attempt at it didn't work out, and I haven't been able to work on it since.

FWIW Conditional Build Step also has the "conditions" Always/Never that you can use as workaround while JENKINS-4819 doesn't exist.

conditionnal plugin are great, but I prefer a way with a plugin I could write myself. A plugin who can filter steps of job. I have hundred of jobs, you imagine I cannot update one by one for filtering steps execute/ not execute !

Nobody already needed the same thing ?
