NodeJS v4 or io.js on Cloudbees

I would like to test and build my node server on Cloudbees using io.js, preferably keeping up with the newer versions (3.2.0 as of today).

Currently, I am using NodeJS 0.10.x on Cloudbees based on the following tutorial. However, I have been unable to find anything about io.js. https://developer.cloudbees.com/bin/view/DEV/Node+Builds

Has anyone tried this? Do I need to install io.js manually?

Update:

NodeJS has now released v4.0.0. This is also not supported on Cloudbees, but I am highly interested. Same problem still applies.

Solution

  • BTW, I ended up solving this with NVM.

    In the Jenkins free style job, open an "Execute shell" build action.

     #!/bin/sh

 {
   # try
   nvm which
 } || {
   # catch
   curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.30.1/install.sh | bash
   source ~/.bash_profile > /dev/null
 }

 nvm install stable > /dev/null

 node -v
