Darragh Bailey b6784fcf6d Add tests for YamlParser and patch 2.6 minidom
Test full build job XML produced by the YamlParser object which exposed
differences in how the XML was being written on python 2.6 versus newer
versions of python.

Differences were whitespace only, but made testing and validating the
xml outputted across multiple versions of python difficult.

Code now patches the python 2.6 writexml method on the Element class in
the xml.dom.minidom module, with a version of the method taken from
python 2.7.5.

Removed the now obsolete regex that was reformatting the output on
python 2.6.

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
