Run & Tag Build via HTTP

Permanently deleted user

Hello,

I would like to trigger & tag a build using http.

For both actions there are documented & undocumented action.html parameters, like
/httpAuth/action.html?editTagsForBuild=<build id>&buildTagsInfo=<comma separated tags>
My problem is that I cannot tag a build that is still in the queue.

So would need a way to check if the build is running / finished and then tag it using the <build_id>.

Is there a way to check / get back the build_id from a build that was started using
httpAuth/action.html?add2Queue ?

A workaround would be to move the taggin to the build script (ant) itself, but I cannot find an agent
side property for the build_id. Found it, its teamcity.buildType.id

Are there any (undocumented) queries for that ?

Thx,

Stefan

Solved: I added a few lines to my "fixRunBuildParameters" Plugin


String tags = buildParams.get("system.build.mytags");
java.util.List<java.lang.String> tagList = new java.util.LinkedList<java.lang.String>();
String[] result = tags.split(",");
for (int x = 0; x < result.length; x++) {
     tagList.add(result[x]);
}
build.setTags(null, tagList);

This way I can specify the tag list when triggering the build with
httpAuth/action.html?add2Queue=bt93&system.name=build.mytags&system.value=Tag1,Tag2,Tag3

Hi

Could not find mentioned plugin, where is it? Or this is your own custom plugin?

That's my own plugin, but it is basically just an implementation of ParametersPreprocessor like this:

public class MyParamProcessor implements
          jetbrains.buildServer.serverSide.ParametersPreprocessor {

     public static final String TAGS_PROPERTY = "system.build.tags";
 
     public void fixRunBuildParameters(SRunningBuild build,
               java.util.Map<java.lang.String, java.lang.String> runParameters,
               java.util.Map<java.lang.String, java.lang.String> buildParams) {

          try {
               if (buildParams.containsKey(TAGS_PROPERTY)) {
                    String tags = buildParams.get(TAGS_PROPERTY);

                    java.util.List<java.lang.String> tagList = new java.util.LinkedList<java.lang.String>();

                    String[] result = tags.split(",");
                    for (int x = 0; x < result.length; x++) {
                         tagList.add(result[x]);
                    }
                    build.setTags(null, tagList);
               }
          } catch (Exception e) {
               
          }

Thanks! it works for me

PS
by the way, the fixRunBuildParameters seems to be called twice
System.out.println("This is my fixRunBuildParameters") prints two lines in the TeamCity/logs/stdout_20110516.log on every run
I'm just interesting why?
