Displaying information on build page that changes

[Jonathan Hodgson]

Hi,

I'm working on a pipeline job that builds several versions of my code on different slaves, and then will be extended to run tests, create installers etc.

I would like to keep the user informed of the progress of these various steps on the build page, and give access to log files etc as they become available.

Now, using the Summary Report plugin I can do this, however this will result in the progress of the different slaves being interleaved as and when they happen, because once the information is displayed, it doesn't change, even if I archive a new version of the xml file it is based on.

I would much rather display some sort of structure for a given step and fill it in as the results become available

Is there any way to do this? And if not, is there a plugin that might be a starting point if I wanted to work out how to implement this functionality?

regards

Jon
