Axis that selects available JDKs. JDK axis has the same XML structure as other axes; only the element name changes. The matrix project support was split out of core Jenkins into the 'Matrix Project Plugin', so update the docstring to mention that this plugin is required. Tested on Jenkins ver. 1.565.2 with Matrix Project Plugin 1.4. Change-Id: I6b9d243810833bd3d31535439cc48768db5a6598
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.

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 libyamlThen install the required python packages using pip:
$ sudo pip install PyYAML python-jenkins
