Python Jobs

Job Groups

Job groups are a great tool to configure categories of jobs together at the same time. Below the example are some starting point job-groups but we recommend creating your own to ensure that the jobs configured reflect the project’s needs.

An example project:

- job-group:
    name: odl-maven-jobs

    jobs:
      - gerrit-maven-clm
      - gerrit-maven-merge
      - gerrit-maven-release
      - gerrit-maven-verify
      - gerrit-maven-verify-dependencies:
          build-timeout: 180

    mvn-version: mvn35

- project:
    name: aaa
    jobs:
      - odl-maven-jobs

In this example we are using the job-group to assign a list of common jobs to the aaa project. The job-group also hardcodes mvn-version to mvn35 and build-timeout to 180 for all projects using this job-group.

A benefit of this method is for example disabling entire category of jobs by modifying the job-group, insert disable-job: true parameter against the jobs to disable.

Below is a list of Python job groups:

---
- job-group:
    name: "{project-name}-python-jobs"

    # This job group contains all the recommended jobs that should be deployed
    # for a Gerrit-based Python project to verify commits using tox.

    jobs:
      - gerrit-python-xc-clm
      - gerrit-tox-verify
      - gerrit-tox-merge

- job-group:
    name: "{project-name}-github-python-jobs"

    # This job group contains all the recommended jobs that should be deployed
    # for a Github-based Python project to verify commits using tox.

    jobs:
      - github-python-xc-clm
      - github-tox-verify
      - github-tox-merge

- job-group:
    name: "{project-name}-gerrit-pypi-jobs"

    # This job group contains the recommended jobs that should be deployed for
    # a Gerrit-based Python project to test, build and deploy a package.

    jobs:
      - gerrit-pypi-merge
      - gerrit-pypi-verify

- job-group:
    name: "{project-name}-github-pypi-jobs"

    # This job group contains the recommended jobs that should be deployed for
    # a Github-based Python project to test, build and deploy a package.

    jobs:
      - github-pypi-merge
      - github-pypi-verify

- job-group:
    name: "{project-name}-gerrit-pypi-release-jobs"

    # This job group contains the recommended jobs that should be deployed for
    # a Gerrit-based Python project to promote a package from staging to pypi.

    jobs:
      - gerrit-pypi-release-merge
      - gerrit-pypi-release-verify

- job-group:
    name: "{project-name}-github-pypi-release-jobs"

    # This job group contains the recommended jobs that should be deployed for
    # a Github-based Python project to promote a package from staging to pypi.

    jobs:
      - github-pypi-release-merge

Job Templates

Python XC CLM

CLM scans for Python based repos. This job will call the Nexus IQ CLI directly to run the scans.

A new credential named “nexus-iq-xc-clm” needs to exist in the Jenkins credentials. The credential should contain the username and password to access Nexus IQ Server.

Template Names:
  • {project-name}-python-clm-{stream}
  • gerrit-python-xc-clm
  • github-python-xc-clm
Comment Trigger:
 

run-clm

Required parameters:
 
build-node:The node to run build on.
jenkins-ssh-credential:
 Credential to use for SSH. (Generally should get configured in defaults.yaml)
Optional parameters:
 
build-days-to-keep:
 Days to keep build logs in Jenkins. (default: 7)
nexus-iq-cli-version:
 Nexus IQ CLI package version to download and use. (default: 1.44.0-01)
nexus-iq-namespace:
 Insert a namespace to project AppID for projects that share a Nexus IQ system to avoid project name collision. We recommend inserting a trailing - dash if using this parameter. For example ‘odl-‘. (default: ‘’)
build-timeout:Timeout in minutes before aborting build. (default: 60)
git-url:URL clone project from. (default: $GIT_URL/$PROJECT)
java-version:Version of Java to use for the build. (default: openjdk8)
pre-build-script:
 Shell script to execute before the CLM builder. For example, install prerequisites or move files to the repo root. (default: a string with a shell comment)
stream:Keyword used to represent a release code-name. Often the same as the branch. (default: master)
submodule-recursive:
 Whether to checkout submodules recursively. (default: true)
submodule-timeout:
 Timeout (in minutes) for checkout operation. (default: 10)
submodule-disable:
 Disable submodule checkout operation. (default: false)
gerrit_clm_triggers:
 Override Gerrit Triggers.
gerrit_trigger_file_paths:
 Override file paths used to filter which file modifications trigger a build. Refer to JJB documentation for “file-path” details. https://docs.openstack.org/infra/jenkins-job-builder/triggers.html#triggers.gerrit

Python Sonar with Tox

Sonar scans for Python based repos. This job invokes tox to run tests and gather coverage statistics from the test results, then invokes Maven to publish the results to either a Sonar server or SonarCloud.

To get the Sonar coverage results, file tox.ini must exist and contain coverage commands to run.

The coverage commands define the code that gets executed by the test suites. Checking coverage does not guarantee that the tests execute properly, but it identifies code that is not executed by any test.

This job reuses the Sonar builders used for Java/Maven projects which run maven twice. The first invocation does nothing for Python projects, so the job uses the goal ‘validate’ by default. The second invocation publishes results using the goal ‘sonar:sonar’ by default.

For example:

[testenv:py27]
commands =
        coverage run --module pytest --junitxml xunit-results.xml
        coverage xml --omit=".tox/py27/*","tests/*"
        coverage report --omit=".tox/py27/*","tests/*"

For more details refer to coverage and sonar documentation:

PyPI Merge

Creates and uploads distribution files on merge of a patch set. Runs tox, builds a source distribution and (optionally) a binary distribution, and uploads the distribution(s) to a PyPI repository. This job should use a staging repository like testpypi.python.org, which sets up use of release jobs to promote the distributions later. This job can also use a public release area like the global PyPI repository. The project git repository must have a setup.py file with configuration for packaging the component.

The tox runner is pyenv aware so if the image contains an installation of pyenv at /opt/pyenv it will pick it up and run Python tests with the appropriate Python versions. The tox runner sets the following pyenv variables before running.

export PYENV_ROOT="/opt/pyenv"
export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"

Requires a .pypirc configuration file in the Jenkins builder home directory, an example appears next that uses API tokens. Note that in the [pypi] entry the repository key-value pair is optional, it defaults to pypi.org.

[distutils] # this tells distutils what package indexes you can push to
index-servers = pypi-test pypi

[pypi-test]
repository: https://test.pypi.org/legacy/
username: __token__
password: pypi-test-api-token-goes-here
