Hibernate helpers for Jenkins pipelines

This is a shared library containing helpers for Jenkins pipeline.

See below for documentation of the helpers.

See near the bottom of this file for help writing Groovy in a Jenkinsfile environment, be it a Jenkinsfile or a shared library like this one.

You will also need to configure your Jenkins instance.

Using the helper steps (declarative or programmatic pipelines)

This library provides a set of helper steps that can come in handy in both declarative and programmatic pipelines.

requireApprovalForPullRequest

Blocks pull request builds (and only pull request builds) pending approval from a given user group.

The approval is skipped if:

  • the pull request was submitted by a member of the given user group.
  • the build was triggered explicitly by a member of the given user group.

Usage:

requireApprovalForPullRequest 'hibernate'

notifyBuildResult

Usage:

notifyBuildResult(
  /**
   * Space-separated emails of maintainers to notify of build results on primary branches.
   * Optional, defaults to empty.
   */
  maintainers: "[email protected] [email protected]",
  /**
   * Whether maintainers should always be notified.
   * Optional, defaults to false.
   */
  notifySuccessAfterSuccess: true
)

Using the helper classes (programmatic pipelines)

This library provides a set of helper classes that can come in handy in programmatic pipelines.

See the content of the execute() method in test/SmokePipeline.groovy for an example of how the helpers are expected to be configured and used.

Setup

Jenkinsfile

In order to use this library, you need to explicitly import it into your Jenkinsfile, by adding this near the top (~before imports):

@Library('hibernate-jenkins-pipeline-helpers') _

This relies on the library being defined in the Jenkins instance.

Jenkins configuration

Library definition and version

In order for @Library to work, you will need to define it in your Jenkins instance. See here for details.

For https://ci.hibernate.org, we define the library globally, so that we can set the (default) version globally here.

Required plugins

Script approval

If not already done, you will need to allow the following calls in /scriptApproval/:

  • method java.lang.Class isInstance java.lang.Object
  • method java.util.Map putIfAbsent java.lang.Object java.lang.Object
  • staticMethod org.jenkinsci.plugins.pipeline.modeldefinition.Utils markStageSkippedForConditional java.lang.String
  • new java.lang.IllegalArgumentException java.lang.String
  • new java.lang.IllegalStateException java.lang.String
  • method hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM getUserRemoteConfigs
  • method hudson.plugins.git.UserRemoteConfig getUrl
  • method java.lang.Throwable addSuppressed java.lang.Throwable
  • new java.util.LinkedHashMap

Just run the script a few times, it will fail and logs will display a link to allow these calls.

Conventions

"primary" branches

Branches named "main", "master" or matching the regex /[0-9]+.[0-9]+/ will be considered as "primary" branches, and, depending on the Jenkinsfile, may undergo additional testing.

"tracking" branches

Branches named "tracking-" will be considered as "tracking branches", i.e. branches containing a patch to be applied regularly on top of a base branch, whenever that base branch changes, or another job succeeds.

In a multibranch pipeline, the specific job for each tracking branch will be configured to run:

  • when the branch is updated (as usual)
  • when a snapshot dependency is updated in the same Jenkins instance (as usual)
  • when the base branch is built successfully
  • when the Jenkins jobs mentioned in the branch name are built successfully

Also, when such branches are built, they are automatically merged with the base branch.

Job configuration file

The job configuration file is optional. Its purpose is to host job-specific configuration, such as notification recipients.

The file is named 'job-configuration.yaml', and it should be set up using the config file provider plugin (https://plugins.jenkins.io/config-file-provider).

notification:
  email:
    # String containing a space-separated list of email addresses to notify in case of failing non-PR builds.
    recipients: ...
  gitter:
    # List of "secret text" credentials for Gitter chat rooms that should be notified
    # Note that only global credentials will work; the notification plugin apparently doesn't handle job-scoped credentials
    urlCredentialsId:
      - <credentialsId>
      - <otherCredentialsId>
scm:
  # User info for commits created during the job. Useful for releases in particular.
  user:
    name: ... # Defaults to 'Hibernate-CI'
    email: ... # Defaults to '[email protected]' 
  # Remotes to be added to git when checking out. Useful for tracking (see below) in particular.
  remotes:
    <remote-name>:
      # The URL of a remote
      url: ...
tracking:
  # The tracking ID, used as a suffix for tracking branch names:
  # if the branch is named "tracking-foo", the tracking ID will be "foo".
  <tracking-name>:
    # The Git refspec to the base of this tracking branch.
    # For example this can be "origin/main" or "upstream/main" (if a remote named "upstream" is defined).
    base: ...
    # The Jenkins jobs to track.
    # Use "branchname" to reference jobs corresponding to other branches in the same multibranch job.
    # Use a "/" prefix ("/somename") to reference jobs outside of the multibranch job.
    tracked:
      - <job name>
      - <other job name>
