Keeping cloned job updated with changes made in the original job

[Bharathi Ramalingam]

We have hundreds of jobs running in our Jenkins instance. Some of the jobs are shared to different teams by cloning from an existing job.

Now when the original jobs are updated, we need to manually track the cloned jobs and update them too.

It is really cumbersome to keep track of clones and difficult to apply the updates.

Is there any plugin or feature in Jenkins that help with this use case? I'm already aware of Template job plugin from cloudbees but we cannot afford enterprise Jenkins.

Thanks!

Template job plugin is available for free Jenkins. We use it a lot to manage our many jobs.

Thanks Eric.

Is this the one you're talking about? https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Template+Project+Plugin

I already saw this, but I was concerned about one the listed limitations,

>"It does not support project actions. That means that links that should be on the project page (e.g. 'latest test results') will not be there."

We rely on project actions to generate test result reports, code coverages etc.

Have a look at the "Job DSL plugin".

Cheers
