Runs of a pipeline are normally triggered by a SCM change. However, you can specify other triggers, like a cron- based schedule:
origin/master
pipeline {
agent any
triggers {
cron '@daily'
}
...
}
This will run the pipeline once per day. The Unix cron style syntax is supported.
A pipeline, even one that is defined a Jenkinsfile, can also bring in other source repositories as needed.
For example:
pipeline {
agent none
stages {
stage('build') {
agent any
steps {
// run main build here and collect the results via "stashing" for later use
stash includes: 'app/*.py', name: 'stuff'
}
}
stage('testing') {
agent label:'master'
steps {
// use a different repo to get the test suite:
git 'https://github.com/jenkinsci/acceptance-test-harness'
// we unstash our stuff from before (because this may be a different node)
unstash 'stuff'
sh 'run-test-suite.sh'
}
}
}
}
Jenkins will track changes from all repositories you mention this way, and allow the pipeline run to be triggered accordingly.
