api4jenkins

Jenkins Python Client

Python3 client library for Jenkins API which provides sync and async APIs.

Features

• Provides sync and async APIs
• Object oriented, each Jenkins item has corresponding class, easy to use and extend
• Base on api/json, easy to query/filter attribute of item
• Setup relationship between class just like Jenkins item
• Support api for almost every Jenkins item
• Pythonic
• Test with latest Jenkins LTS

Installation

python3 -m pip install api4jenkins

Quick start

Sync example:

>>> from api4jenkins import Jenkins
>>> client = Jenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
>>> client.version
'2.176.2'
>>> xml = """<?xml version='1.1' encoding='UTF-8'?>
... <project>
...   <builders>
...     <hudson.tasks.Shell>
...       <command>echo $JENKINS_VERSION</command>
...     </hudson.tasks.Shell>
...   </builders>
... </project>"""
>>> client.create_job('path/to/job', xml)
>>> import time
>>> item = client.build_job('path/to/job')
>>> while not item.get_build():
...      time.sleep(1)
>>> build = item.get_build()
>>> for line in build.progressive_output():
...     print(line)
...

Async example

import asyncio
import time
from api4jenkins import AsyncJenkins

async main():
    client = AsyncJenkins('http://127.0.0.1:8080/', auth=('admin', 'admin'))
    print(await client.version)
    xml = """<?xml version='1.1' encoding='UTF-8'?>
    <project>
      <builders>
        <hudson.tasks.Shell>
          <command>echo $JENKINS_VERSION</command>
        </hudson.tasks.Shell>
      </builders>
    </project>"""
    await client.create_job('job', xml)
    item = await client.build_job('job')
    while not await item.get_build():
        time.sleep(1)
    build = await item.get_build()
    async for line in build.progressive_output():
        print(line)

    print(await build.building)
    print(await build.result)

asyncio.run(main())
