Provide global configuration of settings

XMLWordPrintable

    • analysis-core-plugin
    • None

      My actual requirements are pretty simple:

      • All jobs on Continuous Integration can be easily configured to use the same trending settings
      • All jobs on Public Dashboard can be easily configured to use the same trending settings (we use the build-publisher plugin to push some of our jobs from CI to the dashboard)
      • Make this possible for PMD and my own custom (AppScan) subclass of the hudson.plugins.analysis.core.PluginDescriptor (these are the only two analysis-core plugins we use at this time)
      • Possible (lower priority) requirement - in some cases we may want to have custom settings for some jobs

      Your suggestion to have a global configuration would be perfect for what I really need at this time. If the "*.txt" file doesn't exist, it could fall back on the global configuration. Because I have created my own PluginDescriptor, it would be nice if the global configuration could apply across all extensions, or else make it very easy for me to hook into that global config.

      This feature makes not only sense for graphs but also for all other aspects of the plug-ins.

          Hmm, I don't think that there is an extension point available for that action which I can overwrite...

          I notice this other issue which is related, because the pmd.txt is not being published when I publish these jobs to our public dashboard, which we also want to have configured correctly with the right trending settings.

          https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-4555

          More generally - why do these plugins persist their settings to a text file instead of config.xml? If this behavior was changed it would fix these behaviors completely, because then these settings would be part of the object model instead of being "special". I have the same problem for an in-house extension to analysis-core that we use. It creates a ".txt" file that we want copied and published, but it doesn't do that.

          Well, the reason is that I can't access the global config.xml file when I'm not in the job configuration transaction. Since the graphs are configured in a separate view, I need to persist them manually.

          What is your actual requirement? Would it help if we have a global (system wide) configuration of the graphs?

          Am I right that this feature will be available on 2.0?
          Really looking forward!
          If I could help with some testing or something else let me know.

          Could this also be extended to globally configure the default Trend Graph settings?
          My main requirement would be just to change the default graph so it can be set to "NONE".

          The use case basically is supported by using a shared pipeline script.
