Parent POM for Jenkins Plugins

GitHub release GitHub license

Introduction

The plugin parent POM is decoupled from the core Jenkins project, both from a Maven perspective and a repository perspective. It provides a common build configuration for all Jenkins plugins.

Requirements

Since version 5.0, the plugin parent POM requires Jenkins 2.479 or newer and JDK 17 or newer. Since version 4.52, the plugin parent POM requires Jenkins 2.361 or newer and JDK 11 or newer. Since version 4.40, the plugin parent POM supports Java 17.

Usage

To use the plugin parent POM, change the parent POM of your plugin:

  <parent>
    <groupId>org.jenkins-ci.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>plugin</artifactId>
    <version>VERSION</version> <!-- See https://github.com/jenkinsci/plugin-pom/releases for available versions-->
    <relativePath />
  </parent>

Then override the needed properties, e.g.:

  <properties>
    <!--
    Take a look the developer documentation for the baseline version to use
    https://www.jenkins.io/doc/developer/plugin-development/choosing-jenkins-baseline/#currently-recommended-versions
    -->
    <jenkins.version>2.361.4</jenkins.version>
  </properties>

If you have a jar:test-jar execution, delete it and add the following to <properties>:

<no-test-jar>false</no-test-jar>

Overridable properties

The following properties are overridable:

  • jenkins.version: The Jenkins version required by the plugin. Mandatory. See Requirements for more info. Being able to specify the jenkins.version simplifies testing the plugin with different core versions, which is important (among other reasons) for Plugin Compatibility Testing (PCT).
  • jenkins-test-harness.version: The JTH version used to test plugin. Uses split test-harness (see JENKINS-32478).
  • hpi-plugin.version: The HPI Maven Plugin version used by the plugin. (Generally you should not set this to a version lower than that specified in the plugin parent POM.)
  • stapler-maven-plugin.version: The Stapler Maven plugin version required by the plugin.
  • In order to make their versions the same as the used core version, node.version and npm.version properties are provided.

Incrementals

You can configure your plugin to treat every commit as a release candidate. See Incrementals for details.

Formatting

To opt in to code formatting of your Java sources and Maven POM with Spotless, define the spotless.check.skip property to false and remove any existing Spotless configuration from your POM.

To format existing code, run:

mvn spotless:apply

After formatting an existing repository, squash merge the PR and create a .git-blame-ignore-revs file to hide the formatting commit from blame tools.

Format as you build

You can set up mvn spotless:apply to run automatically (in validate phase) for projects which enabled spotless by adding the following to your settings.xml:

<settings>
  [...]
  <activeProfiles>
    [...]
    <activeProfile>may-spotless-apply</activeProfile>
  </activeProfiles>
</settings>

Running Benchmarks

To run JMH benchmarks from JUnit tests, you must run you must activate the benchmark profile. For example:

mvn -P jmh-benchmark test

When the jmh-benchmark profile is enabled, no tests apart from JMH benchmarks will be run. The names of the classes containing the benchmark runners should either begin with or end with the word Benchmark. For example, FooBenchmark and BenchmarkFoo will be detected when using -Dbenchmark, however, FooBar will be ignored.

See also: documentation for JMH benchmarks

Javadoc

Javadoc has been set to quiet by default in 2.20+, which means it will only log errors and warnings. If you really want it verbose, set quiet property to false for the plugin.

Releasing

Tests are skipped during the perform phase of a release. This can be overridden by setting release.skipTests to false.

Setup Wizard

By default, the setup wizard (Jenkins >= 2.0) is skipped when using hpi:run. If you want the wizard to be enabled just run:

mvn -Dhudson.Main.development=false hpi:run

npm or yarn

If you want to add npm or yarn to your plugin, you can do so by creating a marker file:

For npm:

touch .mvn_exec_node

For yarn:

touch .mvn_exec_yarn

You need to add corresponding properties to your pom.xml and set them to valid values:

For npm:

<properties>
    <node.version>set this to the latest node lts version</node.version>
    <npm.version>set this to the latest npm version</npm.version>
</properties>

For yarn:

<properties>
    <node.version>set this to the latest node lts version</node.version>
    <yarn.version>set this to the latest yarn version</yarn.version>
</properties>

Configuring Jest to report results to Jenkins

Our pipeline-library configures the Maven build to not fail the build when there is test failures so that Jenkins is able to report on the test failures itself.

This requires the tests to be configured to output a JUnit report in a supported location.

To do this you can install jest-junit:

npm install --dev jest-junit
yarn add --dev jest-junit

Then configure jest-junit by modifying the package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "mvntest": "npm test",
    "test": "jest --ci --reporters=default --reporters=jest-junit"
  },
  "jest-junit": {
    "outputDirectory": "target/surefire-reports",
    "outputName": "jest-junit.xml"
  }
}

Then set the following properties in your pom.xml to configure the Maven build to let Jenkins report the results:

<properties>
  <maven.test.failure.ignore>false</maven.test.failure.ignore>
  <frontend.testFailureIgnore>${maven.test.failure.ignore}</frontend.testFailureIgnore>
</properties>

Configuring eslint to report results to Jenkins

To configure the Maven build to report the eslint results to Jenkins you will need to setup the eslint-formatter-checkstyle formatter.

First install it:

npm install --dev eslint-formatter-checkstyle
yarn add --dev eslint-formatter-checkstyle

Then configure eslint, depending on your configuration it should look something like this:

{
  "scripts": {
    "mvntest": "eslint src/main/js -f checkstyle -o target/eslint-warnings.xml --ext js"
  }
}

Then set the following properties in your pom.xml to configure the Maven build to let Jenkins report the results:

<properties>
  <maven.test.failure.ignore>false</maven.test.failure.ignore>
  <frontend.testFailureIgnore>${maven.test.failure.ignore}</frontend.testFailureIgnore>
</properties>

Jenkins Core BOM

Since version 2.195, Jenkins provides a Maven Bill Of Materials (BOM) that centrally defines versions of various libraries used by Jenkins Core and should make it easier to update to newer Jenkins Core versions
