Before this change using an anchor/alias in !j2-yaml resulted in an exception, even if retain_anchors was set to True: > File "(...)/jenkins-job-builder/.tox/py38/lib/python3.8/site-packages/yaml/composer.py", line 68, in compose_node > raise ComposerError(None, None, "found undefined alias %r" > yaml.composer.ComposerError: found undefined alias '<alias-name-xxx>' The reason was that LateYamlLoader.get_object_to_format() was calling load() without retain_anchors=True so effectively it was resetting anchors during deep formatting... From now on yaml.load() is called directly to avoid unwanted side-effects of load() which is meant to be called from other modules, typically by parser.YamlParser().

README
Jenkins Job Builder takes simple descriptions of Jenkins jobs in YAML or JSON 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.

Cloning:
git clone https://opendev.org/jjb/jenkins-job-builder.gitInstall pre-commit from https://pre-commit.com/#intro in order to run some minimal testing on your commits.
A virtual environment is recommended for development. For example, Jenkins Job Builder may be installed from the top level directory:
$ virtualenv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r test-requirements.txt -e .Patches are submitted via Gerrit at:

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.
Unit Tests
Unit tests have been included and are in the tests
folder. Many unit tests samples are included as examples in our
documentation to ensure that examples are kept current with existing
behaviour. To run the unit tests, execute the command:
tox -e py34,py27- Note: View
tox.inito run tests on other versions of Python, generating the documentation and additionally for any special notes on running the test to validate documentation external URLs from behind proxies.
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
