Show current state of Jenkins build on GitHub repo

Question

Is there a way to show the Jenkins build status on my project\'s GitHub Readme.md?

I use Jenkins to run continuous integration builds. After each commit it ensures

Answer 1

What I did is quite simple:

1. Install the Hudson Post Task Plugin
2. Create a Personal Access Token here : https://github.com/settings/tokens

3. Add a Post Task Plugin that always put success

   curl -XPOST -H "Authorization: token OAUTH TOKEN" https://api.github.com/repos/:organization/:repos/statuses/$(git rev-parse HEAD) -d "{
     \"state\": \"success\",
     \"target_url\": \"${BUILD_URL}\",
     \"description\": \"The build has succeeded!\"
   }"
   

4. Add a Post Task Plugin that will put failure if "marked build as failure"

   curl -XPOST -H "Authorization: token OAUTH TOKEN" https://api.github.com/repos/:organization/:repos/statuses/$(git rev-parse HEAD) -d "{
     \"state\": \"failure\",
     \"target_url\": \"${BUILD_URL}\",
     \"description\": \"The build has failed!\"
   }"
   

5. You can also add a call to pending at the beginning of tests

   curl -XPOST -H "Authorization: token OAUTH TOKEN" https://api.github.com/repos/:organization/:repos/statuses/$(git rev-parse HEAD) -d "{
     \"state\": \"pending\",
     \"target_url\": \"${BUILD_URL}\",
     \"description\": \"The build is pending!\"
   }"
