Cancel queued builds and aborting executing builds using Groovy for Jenkins

Question

For Jenkins using a Groovy System Script, is there a way to easily search the build queue and list of executing builds for some criteria (specifically a parameter that match

Answer 1

After some investigation, I came up with this code which works absolutely fine for me. It clears the queue and also aborts all the jobs currently getting executed.

Prerequisites:

1. 'All' view contains all the jobs
2. Use System groovy

import jenkins.model.Jenkins
import hudson.*
import hudson.model.*
import jenkins.*

// Remove everything which is currently queued

Jenkins.instance.queue.clear()
def buildingJobs = Jenkins.instance.getAllItems(Job.class).findAll {
    it.isBuilding()
}

buildingJobs.each {
    def jobName = it.toString()
    def val = jobName.split("\\[|\\]")

    // 'Abort jobs' is the name of the job I have created, and I do not want it to abort itself.

    if((val[1].trim())!='Abort jobs') {
        def job = Jenkins.instance.getItemByFullName(val[1].trim())
        for (build in job.builds) {
            if (build.isBuilding()) {
                println(build)
                build.doStop();
            }
        }
    }
}
