Installed blueocean

      • Create pipeline
      • choose github
      • choose my account (coupled to already created github access token)
      • choose my repo (which is a PRIVATE repo)
        • repo already contains a jenkinsfile
      • wait until pipeline gets created, never happens
      • blueocean state "pipeline being created, you can go back to dashboard"
      • back in dashboard, I see the newly created pipeline
      • click on pipeline: 

        You don't have any branches that contain a Jenkinsfile

      I don't? Djeeze, what this then?

       

      I am trying to get pipelines going for 4 days now.... Tried Bitbucket with apppassword => can't login.

       

      Trying github instead, moved archive over to new created private repo in github. Greated access token, created credentials in jenkins with username and PAT. But also this doesn't seem to work.

       

      Can somebody PLEASE confirm:

      • Is it possible to use blueocean pipelines for PRIVATE github repo (username + PAT)?
      • Is it possible to use blueocean pipelines for PRIVATE Bitbucket repo (username+apppassword)

       

      Are all the issues we encounter known? Will they get solved or is blueocean dropped (no longer supported?).

       

      Any guidance would be greatly appreciated...

       

      Many thanks

          Thanks for reporting the issue. I'm able to duplicate the issue as you reported it using both GitHub and Bitbucket on my installation where I had removed the Blue Ocean Pipeline Editor plugin.

          If I install the Blue Ocean pipeline editor plugin, then I'm able to create Pipelines in empty GitHub repositories with Blue Ocean. I haven't yet confirmed that I can create new Pipelines in Bitbucket.

          As far as I can tell from reading the dependencies on plugins.jenkins.io, the current tutorial installation instructions install the Pipeline editor plugin and should not result in the problem you reported here. I'm not 100% certain of that, but it seems likely.

          Can you confirm that you have the Blue Ocean Pipeline Editor plugin installed?

          On a general note, no enhancements to Blue Ocean are currently planned. See the explanation posted to the Jenkins Developers mailing list. I've proposed to kmartens27 and to halkeye that we'll add information to the existing Blue Ocean documentation so that users know that new functionality is not being added to Blue Ocean and that the maintainers are only addressing selected significant security issues and functional defects.

          Hi markewaite , thanks for confirming, then I can at least stop trying to get it to work.

          Do I understand your reply and what I read on the link you provided correctly that Blue Ocean will be dropped eventually? If that's the case, are there already alternatives I can try to achieve something similar? The idea behind Blue Ocean pipelines was absolutely brilliant, a super light weight approach to dockerize all different kind of build environment and automate builds for these different projects. Is there anything you can suggest?

          Jenkins drops plugins very rarely and only with conditions specific to that plugin. For example, plugins that have very serious security issues may be dropped. Unmaintained plugins are rarely dropped unless there is another issue that prompts it to be dropped.

          There is so much interest and so much use of the pipeline visualization from Blue Ocean that I don't think it will be dropped.

          If that's the case, are there already alternatives I can try to achieve something similar?

          Tim Jacomb's Pipeline Graph Viewer plugin provides an alpha quality version of the pipeline visualization portion of Blue Ocean. It does not provide the Pipeline Editor portion of Blue Ocean
