GoodData customized Pull Request Builder Plugin

This is fork of Pull Request Builder Plugin with customized behaviour.

This plugin builds pull requests from github and reports the results.

https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/GitHub+pull+request+builder+plugin

Adding a new pull request or new commit to an existing pull request will start a new build.

A new build can also be started with a comment: retest this please.

Requirements:

github-api plugin (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/GitHub+API+Plugin)
github plugin (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/GitHub+Plugin) git plugin (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin)

Pre-installation:

• I recomend to create GitHub 'bot' user that will be used for communication with GitHub (however you can use your own account if you want).
• The user needs to have push rights for your repository (must be collaborator (user repo) or must have Push & Pull rights (organization repo)).
• If you want to use GitHub hooks have them set automatically the user needs to have administrator rights for your repository (must be owner (user repo) or must have Push, Pull & Administrative rights (organization repo))

Installation:

• Install the plugin.
• Go to Manage Jenkins -> Configure System -> GitHub pull requests builder section.
• If you are using Enterprise GitHub set the server api URL in GitHub server api URL. Otherwise leave there https://api.github.com.
• Set your 'bot' user's Access Token.
  • If you don't have generated your access token you can generate one in Advanced....
    • Set your 'bot' user's GitHub username and password.
    • Press the Create Access Token button
    • Copy the generated Access Token into the field Access Token
    • Clear the username and password fields
  • If you don't want to use Access Token leve the field empty and fill the username and password in Advanced....
• Add GitHub usernames of admins (these usernames will be used as defaults in new jobs).
• Under Advanced, you can modify:
  • The phrase for accepting a pullrequest for testing. (Java regexp)
  • The phrase for starting a new build. (Java regexp)
  • The crontab line. This specify default setting for new jobs.
• Save to preserve your changes.

Creating a job:

• Create a new job.

• Add the project's GitHub URL to the GitHub project field (the one you can enter into browser. eg: https://github.com/janinko/ghprb)

• Select Git SCM.

• Add your GitHub Repository URL.

• Under Advanced, set refspec to +refs/pull/*:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*.

• In Branch Specifier, enter ${sha1}.

• Under Build Triggers, check GitHub pull requests builder.

  • If you want to use GitHub hooks for automatic testing, read the help for Use github hooks for build triggering in job configuration. Then you can check the checkbox.
  • In Advanced, you can modify:
    • The crontab line for this specific job. This schedules polling to GitHub for new changes in Pull Requests.

• Save to preserve your changes.

Make sure you DON'T have Prune remote branches before build advanced option selected, since it will prune the branch created to test this build.

If you want to manually build the job, in the job setting check This build is parameterized and add string parameter named sha1. When starting build give the sha1 parameter commit id you want to build or refname (eg: origin/pr/9/head).

Updates

-> 1.8

In version 1.8 the GitHub hook url changed from http://yourserver.com/jenkins/job/JOBNAME/ghprbhook to http://yourserver.com/jenkins/ghprbhook. This shouldn't be noticable in most cases but you can have two webhooks configured in you repository.

-> 1.4

When updating to versions 1.4 phrases for retesting on existing pull requsts can stop working. The solution is comment in pull request with ok to test or remove and create the job. This is caused because there was change in phrases.
