Let running Jenkins job fail/succeed "from outside"?

[Christian Flamm]

Hi,

is there a way to tell a running Jenkins job it has either failed/succeeded from outside? Something like a REST-like access to be able to finish running Jobs either way.

Thanks in advance,
Christian

Jenkins publishes the results in XML/Json format. Check for http://<jenkins-url>:<port>/jenkins/job/<job-name>/api/xml or http://<jenkins-url>:<port>/jenkins/job/<job-name>/api/ json?pretty=true , Search for color, it will change based on your job result.

You should be able to use the Jenkins CLI for this (set-build-result command). It's intended to be used from a shell started by the build, so you'll need to recreate that environment (JOB_NAME and BUILD_NUMBER).

Doing this by setting shell environment variables doesn't seem to work - what am I doing woring? Thx!

[Christian Flamm]

To be a bit more precise: I can now run the command, without any complains about ... that it has to be run from within a build ... but it has no effect.

I was wrong! I can set the jobs build result from outside. I wrongly thought the job would then immediately be stopped after the result is clear, but it will go on doing everything and just use my set build result afterwards.

Is there a way to make a job immediately stop do what he's doing after setting the builld result?

Thx!

Ideas anyone?

You can do this in workflow if you use input.

Or if you want the build to immediatly stop you can abort it - but that then may not run post build tasks.
