Jenkins API

[Andrew Sumner]

Couple of questions:

1. Where can I find a list of functions I can call?

    eg I found toggleOffline while searching the internet, I don't think its strictly an api method, but where can I find documentation for this and other methods?

2. Having a problem authenticating with Jenkins using vbscript, how do I do this?  I've tried many different ways but nothing I tried worked.

    url = "http://jenkins/<node name>/toggleOffline?offlineMessage=Rebooting"

    With CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
        .open "GET", url, False
        .send
       
        responseText = .responseText
        statusText = .statusText
        status = .status
    End With

    If status <> 200 Then
        ' Call not successful - quit
        WScript.Echo("Status: " & status & " - " & statusText)
        WScript.Echo(responseText)
        WScript.Quit(2)
    End If
   
    WScript.Echo("Response: " & responseText)

Every page of Jenkins has  a link called "REST API" near the bottom right corner. This leads to a page with specific instructions and also a link to the overall documentation:

Re: 1 - see http://jenkins-ci.361315.n4.nabble.com/quot-wipe-out-current-workspace-quot-via-REST-API-td4687766.html for suggestions on how to find the most useful functions.

Re: 2 - The comments on the Jenkins wiki page mentioned by Robin Rosenberg contain several examples of Python code to handle authentication. I don't have experience using VbScript but I imagine you could do it there, too.

Eric
