Support

Jenkins Status is an open source extension created for Visual Studio Code. While being free and open source, if you find it useful, please consider supporting it.

Jenkins Status

It adds an area in the status bar, indicating the build status for any Jenkins job. Specially useful if you want to connect a project with its CI server.

Features

View the Jenkins build status of your project inside Visual Studio Code.

It is automatically enabled if you have a .jenkins or .jenkinsrc.js file in the root folder of your project. The only required information is the url pointing to your Jenkins job.

If you need authentication, just add username and password_or_token in the .jenkins file and you are ready to go.

.jenkins file

{
    "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/myproject/",
    "username": "jenkins_user",
    "password": "jenkins_password_or_token"
}

or

[
    {
        "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/myproject/",
        "name": "Jenkins Build",
        "username": "jenkins_user",
        "password": "jenkins_password_or_token"
    },
    {
        "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/myprojectTests/",
        "name": "Jenkins Acceptance Tests",
        "username": "jenkins_user",
        "password": "jenkins_password_or_token"
    }
]

.jenkinsrc.js file

// can also return a promise of required JSON structure
module.exports = [{
    "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/myproject/",
    "name": "Jenkins Build",
    "username": "jenkins_user",
    "password": "jenkins_password_or_token"
},
{
    "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8080/job/myprojectTests/",
    "name": "Jenkins Acceptance Tests",
    "username": "jenkins_user",
    "password": "jenkins_password_or_token"
}];

If you are having trouble with self-signed certificates and your build status says SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN, you could use a workaroud adding a strictTls flag to your .jenkins file or .jenkinsrc.js export:

    "strictTls": false

Available commands

• Jenkins: Open in Jenkins (Console Output): Open the Console Output of the Jenkins project in you browser
• Jenkins: Update Status: Manually update the status of our Jenkins project

Available settings
