This plugin gather information on specific events on jenkins and sends them to an external API. That way, you can get the statistics that matters for your needs.
In this section, you'll see which data is sent when. Please note that we do not consider adding a field to a JSON as a breaking change. However, removing one is considered as a breaking change.
At the start of a build, the following data is sent
{
"queueTime": 29,
"result": "INPROGRESS",
"ciUrl": "http://localhost:8080/jenkins/",
"contextId": 102490963,
"fullJobName": "jenkins_test",
"parameters": {
"someParams": "someValue"
},
"buildUrl": "aUrl",
"buildCause": "Started by anonymous",
"startTime": 1469453903,
"number": 252,
"startedUsername": "anonymous",
"jobName": "jenkins_test",
"slaveInfo": {
"slaveName": "optimusprime",
"executor": "1",
"label": "master, windows,"
},
"scmInfo": {
"url": "aGithubUrl",
"commit": "aCommitHash",
"branch": "origin/master"
},
"startedUserId": "anonymous"
}On the finalize part of a build, the following JSON is sent.
{
"result": "ABORTED",
"endTime": 1469453903,
"ciUrl": "http://localhost:8080/jenkins/",
"fullJobName": "jenkins_test",
"buildUrl": "aUrl",
"number": 252,
"jobName": "jenkins_test",
"duration": 9452,
}Results can either be "SUCCESS", "ABORTED", or "FAILURE"
If the Build Failure Cause plugin is installed and the build failed, it will return the following JSON:
{
"result" : "ABORTED",
"endTime" : 1469453903,
"ciUrl" : "http://localhost:8080/jenkins/",
"fullJobName" : "jenkins_test",
"buildFailureCauses" : [
{
"name" : "aborted",

"aCategory"
],
"id" : "ccff5d15-1003-4570-b38f-f844255c6be1",
"description" : "Build was manually aborted"
},
{...}
],
"buildUrl" : "job/jenkins_test/252/",
"number": 252,
"jobName": "jenkins_test",
"duration": 9452
}When a job enters in the queue, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"entryTime": 1469455391674,

"exitTime": null,
"entryTime": 1469455391674,
"type": "waiting"
}
],
"ciUrl": "http://jenkins.localhost/",
}When a job enters a new state in the queue, it will send the following JSON:
{
"entryTime": 1469455391674,
"jenkinsQueueId": 191277,
"jobName": "Projects » AProject » Blop » Foo » OnCommit",
"queueCauses": [
{
"reasonForWaiting": "In the quiet period. Expires in 4.9 sec",
"exitTime": 1469455391674,
"entryTime": null,
"type": "waiting"
}
],
"ciUrl": "http://jenkins.localhost/",
}When a job leaves a state in the queue, it will send the following JSON:
{
"startedBy": "SCM",
"status": "ENTERED",
"entryTime": 1469455391674,
"duration": 0,
"jenkinsQueueId": 191277,
"jobName": "Projects » AProject » Blop » Foo » OnCommit",
"queueCauses": [
{
"reasonForWaiting": "In the quiet period. Expires in 4.9 sec",
"exitTime": null,
"entryTime": 1469455391674,
"type": "waiting"
}
],
"ciUrl": "http://jenkins.localhost/",
}When a job leaves the queue, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"startedBy": "SCM",
"status": "LEFT",
"duration": 15,
"entryTime": 1469455391674,
"jobName": "Projects » AProject » Blop » Foo » OnCommit",
"jenkinsQueueId": 191283,
"contextId": 12343,
"ciUrl": "http://jenkins.localhost/",
"exitTime": 1469455391674
}Note that the contextId can be used to link job in the queues with the corresponding build.
When a job is created, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"name": "aJob",
"createdDate": 1469455391674,
"userId": "anonymous",
"userName": "anonymous",
"ciUrl": "http://localhost:9090/jenkins/",
"status": "ACTIVE",
"configFile": "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>\n<project>\n <keepDependencies>false<\/keepDependencies>\n <properties/>\n <scm class=\"hudson.scm.NullSCM\"/>\n <canRoam>false<\/canRoam>\n <disabled>false<\/disabled>\n <blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>false<\/blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>\n <blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>false<\/blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>\n <triggers/>\n <concurrentBuild>false<\/concurrentBuild>\n <builders/>\n <publishers/>\n <buildWrappers/>\n<\/project>"
}The configFile field is the XML corresponding to the job.
When a job is updated, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"name": "aJob",
"updatedDate": 1469455391674,
"userId": "anonymous",
"userName": "anonymous",
"ciUrl": "http://localhost:9090/jenkins/",
"status": "ACTIVE",
"configFile": "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>\n<project>\n <keepDependencies>false<\/keepDependencies>\n <properties/>\n <scm class=\"hudson.scm.NullSCM\"/>\n <canRoam>false<\/canRoam>\n <disabled>false<\/disabled>\n <blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>false<\/blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>\n <blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>false<\/blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>\n <triggers/>\n <concurrentBuild>false<\/concurrentBuild>\n <builders/>\n <publishers/>\n <buildWrappers/>\n<\/project>"
}When a job is deleted, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"name": "aJob",
"updatedDate": 1469455391674,
"userId": "anonymous",
"userName": "anonymous",
"ciUrl": "http://localhost:9090/jenkins/",
"status": "DELETED",
"configFile": "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>\n<project>\n <keepDependencies>false<\/keepDependencies>\n <properties/>\n <scm class=\"hudson.scm.NullSCM\"/>\n <canRoam>false<\/canRoam>\n <disabled>false<\/disabled>\n <blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>false<\/blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>\n <blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>false<\/blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>\n <triggers/>\n <concurrentBuild>false<\/concurrentBuild>\n <builders/>\n <publishers/>\n <buildWrappers/>\n<\/project>"
}Status can be "ACTIVE", "DISABLED" or "DELETED".
On the start of a build step, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"startTime" : 1469453903,
"endTime" : 0,
"buildStepType" : "hudson.tasks.Shell",
"buildStepId" : "hudson.tasks.Shell@1234",
"buildUrl": "aUrl"
}On the end of a build step, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"startTime" : 0,
"endTime" : 1469453903,
"buildStepType" : "hudson.tasks.Shell",
"buildStepId" : "hudson.tasks.Shell@1234",
"buildUrl": "aUrl"
}The buildStepId is unique within a given build. So you can use the buildUrl and the buildStepId to merge the information from the start and the end of the build step.
At the start of the checkout, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"startTime" : 1469453903,
"endTime" : 0,
"buildUrl" : "aUrl"
}At the end of the checkout, the following JSON will be sent:
{
"startTime" : 0,
"endTime" : 1469453903,
"buildUrl" : "aUrl"
}If the checkout fails, there will be no second JSON.
Start the local Jenkins instance:
mvn hpi:run
hpi:create Creates a skeleton of a new plugin.
hpi:hpi Builds the .hpi file
hpi:hpl Generates the .hpl file
hpi:run Runs Jenkins with the current plugin project
hpi:upload Posts the hpi file to java.net. Used during the release.
Run
mvn hpi:hpi
to create the plugin .hpi file.
To install:
-
copy the resulting ./target/statistics-gatherer.hpi file to the $JENKINS_HOME/plugins directory. Don't forget to restart Jenkins afterwards.
-
or use the plugin management console (http://example.com:8080/pluginManager/advanced) to upload the hpi file. You have to restart Jenkins in order to find the plugin in the installed plugins list.
mvn release:prepare release:perform -Dusername=user -Dpassword=******
