Darragh Bailey 3e3996d32a Use yaml local tags to support including files
Add support for local tags which are application specific to allow
including of other yaml files or code from scripts. Allows for code to
be maintained and tested as seperate files, as well as reduces
duplication of yaml code that cannot be macro'ed or easily templated by
including it from a common file.

Adds support for the following tags:
  'include' - load file as yaml code
  'include-raw' - load file as data (for scripts)
  'include-raw-escaped' - load file as data with escaping braces '{}'
      as default for use with job-templates

Use configuration file options to provide a search path for the files.

- Test behaviour of yaml tags independent of any XML generation
  by comparing json result of yaml parsing to verify that certain
  tags do/don't recall the yaml.load() method.
- Add examples for the include tags via addition tests for YamlParser
  class

Jenkins Job Builder

Jenkins Job Builder takes simple descriptions of Jenkins jobs in YAML format, and uses them to configure Jenkins. You can keep your job descriptions in human readable text format in a version control system to make changes and auditing easier. It also has a flexible template system, so creating many similarly configured jobs is easy.

To install:

$ sudo python setup.py install

Writing a patch

We ask that all code submissions be pep8 and pyflakes clean. The easiest way to do that is to run tox before submitting code for review in Gerrit. It will run pep8 and pyflakes in the same manner as the automated test suite that will run on proposed patchsets.

When creating new YAML components, please observe the following style conventions:

  • All YAML identifiers (including component names and arguments) should be lower-case and multiple word identifiers should use hyphens. E.g., "build-trigger".
  • The Python functions that implement components should have the same name as the YAML keyword, but should use underscores instead of hyphens. E.g., "build_trigger".

This consistency will help users avoid simple mistakes when writing YAML, as well as developers when matching YAML components to Python implementation.

Installing without setup.py

For YAML support, you will need libyaml installed.

Mac OS X:

$ brew install libyaml

Then install the required python packages using pip:

$ sudo pip install PyYAML python-jenkins
