Something changed in memegenerator API, no meme is generated and you can see the following in the jenkins log:
Memegenerator API failure: Procedure or function 'Instance_Create' expects parameter '@Created', which was not supplied., full response: {"errorMessage":"Procedure or function 'Instance_Create' expects parameter '@Created', which was not supplied.","success":false}
[JENKINS-31943] Meme generator plugin is broken
Ok, the meme generator API is fundamentally broken. This `@Created` parameter looks like a problem with a stored procedure, which is corroborated by an issue on another project.
I'm giving up on the meme generator API, which I've had a number of problems with over the years. I'm going to swap it out for apimeme.com, which didn't exist when I started this but is exactly what I'm looking for. No need for username/password, and it returns the image as a binary response over HTTP. I'll update progress here.
Thanks again
Well, not yet. I just compiled and uploaded the plugin onto my jenkins instance. I got the following in the jenkins log:
Dec 09, 2015 7:18:26 PM hudson.plugins.memegen.MemeNotifier generate
WARNING: Meme generation failed: null
and the following in the build log:
Build failure, generating Meme... Generating Meme Meme: http://apimeme.com/meme?meme=TED&top=I+don%27t+always+commit&bottom=But+when+I+do%2C+I+break+the+build Sorry, couldn't create a Meme - check the logs for more detail Finished: FAILURE
It works for me - that `null` you're getting should be the exception message, which isn't very helpful! Do you get it every time?
Yes, at least on my installation. I've set up a dev environment - will see if I can debug it myself the nearest weekend and post any followup info.
Jon, sorry for the delay. I've done a bunch of testing trying to figure out what's going on. It looks like memegen plugin doesn't work nicely with cloudbees docker environment. The error I've posted only happens when building in docker, and since we have all our builds inside containers, I couldn't see that it worked.
Thanks for reporting this. It's been a long time since I've done anything on the plugin, so I'll familiarise myself with the code again and try and get the API call fixed.
