• Official Jenkins LTS docker image

  (This is a guest post from Michael Neale) Recently at the Docker Conference (DockerCon) the Docker Hub was announced. The hub (which includes their image building and storage service) also provides some "official" images (sometimes they call them repositories - they are really just sets of images). So after talking with all sorts of people we decided to create an official Jenkins image...

• User Interface Refresh

  This is a guest post from Tom Fennelly Over the last number of weeks we’ve been trying to "refresh" the Jenkins UI, modernizing the look and feel a bit. This has been a real community effort, with collaboration from lots of people, both in terms of implementation and in terms of providing honest/critical feedback. Lots of people deserve credit but, in...

My favorite part is, to quote, "Jenkins has an almost laughably dominant position in the CI server segment", and "With 70% of the CI market on lockdown and showing an increasing rate of plugin development, Jenkins is undoubtably the most...

• Jenkins figure is available in shapeways

  Some time ago, we’ve built Jenkins bobble head figures. This was such a huge hit that everywhere I go, I get asked about them. The only problem was that it cannot be individually ordered, and we didn’t have enough cycles to individually sell and ship them for those who wanted them. So I decided to have the 3D model of Mr.Jenkins...

• JUC Israel report

  This year marks the 3rd annual Jenkins User Conference in Israel. While the timing of the event turned out to be less than ideal for reasons beyond our control, that didn’t stop 400 Jenkins users from showing up at the "explosive" event at a seaside hotel near Tel Aviv. Shlomi Ben-Haim kicked off the conference by reporting that JUC Israel just...

• Planned changes in Jenkins User Conference contact information collection

  + + One of the challenges of running Jenkins User Conferences is to balance the interest of attendees and the interest of sponsors. Sponsors would like to know more about attendees, but attendees are often weary of getting contacted. Our past few JUCs have been run by making it opt-in to have the contact information passed to sponsors, but the...

• Workflow plugin tutorial: writing a Step impl

  The other day I was explaining how to implement a new workflow primitive to Vivek Pandey, and I captured it as a recording. The recording goes over how to implement the Step extension point, which is the workflow equivalent of BuildStep extension point. If you are interested in jumping on the workflow plugin hacking, this might be useful (and don’t forget...
