Universal Python client for Jenkins

---

Python client for Jenkins which supports both sync and async syntax with same interface.

Comparison to other packages
Name	Sync	Async	Python
ujenkins	YES	YES	3.6+
aiojenkins	NO	YES	3.5+
python-jenkins	YES	NO	3.4+
jenkinsapi	YES	NO	3.4+

Installation

Latest release from PyPI

pip3 install ujenkins

Or latest developing version

pip3 install git+https://github.com/pbelskiy/ujenkins

Usage

Get Jenkins version using sync client:

from ujenkins import JenkinsClient

def example():
    client = JenkinsClient('http://server', 'user', 'password')
    version = client.system.get_version()
    print(version)

example()

With async client (be careful AsyncJenkinsClient must be called inside async function):

import asyncio
from ujenkins import AsyncJenkinsClient

async def example():
    client = AsyncJenkinsClient('http://server', 'user', 'password')
    version = await client.system.get_version()
    print(version)
    await client.close()

asyncio.run(example())

Examples

In all code examples below client instance is created by:

from ujenkins import JenkinsClient
client = JenkinsClient('http://server', 'user', 'password')

Get timestamp of latest build

client.builds.get_info('job', 'lastBuild')['timestamp']

Get url of started build

Be careful, JenkinsNotFoundError could be raise in case build with same arg already enqueued.

item_id = client.builds.start('my_job')
while True:
    time.sleep(5)
    try:
        info = client.queue.get_info(item_id)
        print(info['executable']['url'])
        break
    except (KeyError, TypeError):
        pass  # wait for build will be started

Get all jobs

Basically client.jobs.get() returns jobs from root (depth = 0), in case you want receive all the jobs, there are few approaches for it.

1. Set needed depth, experimentally 10 is enough.

jobs = client.jobs.get(depth=10)

Output:

{'folder': {'_class': 'com.cloudbees.hudson.plugins.folder.Folder',
            'jobs': [{'_class': 'hudson.model.FreeStyleProject',
                    'color': 'notbuilt',
                    'name': 'job_in_folder1',
                    'url': 'http://localhost:8080/job/folder/job/job_in_folder1/'},
                    {'_class': 'com.cloudbees.hudson.plugins.folder.Folder',
                    'jobs': [{'_class': 'hudson.model.FreeStyleProject',
                                'color': 'notbuilt',
                                'name': 'sub_job_in_subfolder',
                                'url': 'http://localhost:8080/job/folder/job/subfolder/job/sub_job_in_subfolder/'}],
                    'name': 'subfolder',
                    'url': 'http://localhost:8080/job/folder/job/subfolder/'}],
            'name': 'folder',
            'url': 'http://localhost:8080/job/folder/'},
'job': {'_class': 'hudson.model.FreeStyleProject',
        'color': 'blue',
        'name': 'job',
        'url': 'http://localhost:8080/job/job/'}}

2. Or just write your code to recursively form it, example is below.

def get_all_jobs(url: str = '', parent: str = '') -> Dict[str, dict]:
    jobs = {}

    for name, prop in client.jobs.get(url).items():
        jobs[parent + name] = prop
        if 'Folder' in prop.get('_class', ''):
            jobs.update(get_all_jobs(prop['url'], parent + name + '/'))

    return jobs

all_jobs = get_all_jobs()

Working with build artifacts

# get content of artifact (bytes)
content = client.builds.get_artifact('my_job', 31, 'photo.jpg')
with open('/tmp/photo.jpg', 'wb') as f:
    w.write(content)

# enumerate artifacts
artifacts = client.builds.get_list_artifacts('my_job', 31)
for artifact in artifacts:
    # get content and manually save it
    content = client.builds.get_artifact('my_job', 31, artifact['path'])

    # or absolute url could be used for external download
    print(artifact['url'])
    # >> 'http://server/job/my_job/31/artifact/photo.jpg'
