C/C++ Jobs

Job Templates

Autotools PackageCloud Stage

Stage job which runs configure && make, then uploads all DEB/RPM files in the build directory to PackageCloud.io. Triggered by comment.

The default configuration supplies a pre-build script that runs GNU Autotools to generate the configure shell script. Must be overridden if that script is in the version-control system.

The Jenkins system must have a configuration file provider that installs files “.packagecloud” and “packagecloud_api” to the Jenkins home directory with appropriate credentials.

The Jenkins build minion must have the Ruby gem “package_cloud” installed.

Template Names
  • {project-name}-autotools-packagecloud-stage-{stream}

  • gerrit-autotools-packagecloud-stage

  • github-autotools-packagecloud-stage

Autotools SonarQube

The SonarQube job installs the SonarQube CXX build wrapper, runs configure, uses the build wrapper to invoke make, then runs the SonarQube Scanner Jenkins plug-in to analyze code for bugs, code smells and security vulnerabilities, and to upload the result (possibly including code-coverage statistics) to a SonarQube server or to SonarCloud.io. Optionally runs a shell script before the build to install prerequisites.

The default configuration supplies a pre-build script that runs GNU Autotools to generate the configure shell script. Must be overridden if that script is in the version-control system.

Requires SonarQube Scanner for Jenkins

This job runs on the master branch because the basic Sonar configuration does not support multi-branch.
