Job Lifecycle Plugins

[mezam]

Hello, are the Job Lifecycle Plugins for Enterprise version only? 

I've add the line rundeck.feature.jobLifecyclePlugin.enabled=true to the rundeck-config.properties and restarted the rundeck service, but on the project configuration page I don't see any tab named Job Lifecycle Plugins. I have RD 4.17 on Win 2019 Srv

also, I must admit that I don't see the plugins in the rundeck\libext folder:

Hi,

The "Job Lifecycle Plugin" is not a plugin per se, it is a sort of plugin you can develop depending on your needs. There is a good explanation here. Also, check an example here.

What's a good example of use case for this?

Hi,

For example: you need a certain condition to execute a job. i.e.: a specific value in an option. If that option matches with the desired value, then you can execute the job.

framework.plugin.JobLifecycle.example.optionName=opt1 framework.plugin.JobLifecycle.example.secretValue=123

This allows you to execute the job only if the opt1 contains the 123 value.

Greetings.
