Shopify Dashing Widget

I am using shopify dashing for couple of our projects. Just wanted to check whether is there a possibility to use blueocean pipeline stages inside the widget? I have checked for the possibility but unfortunately I haven't find any clue. Just wanted to check if others are any having any inputs regarding the same.

I am referring to the below screenshot: Blue_Ocean_Pipeline_Stages

Solution

  • It's not quite as useful as what you're looking for, but the closest you're probably going to get is the Embeddable Build Status Plugin which shows you the overall status of the whole build, something like this:

    build status plugin icon showing a failing build

    From the job's classic (not Blue Ocean) view, follow the "Embeddable Build Status" link, which takes you to a page that provides the link in several formats (plain link, Markdown, HTML, etc).

    You'll need to take some permissions into consideration: protected links require the user to have Read permission to the job; unprotected require ViewStatus.

    Links are provided for With View and Without View, where the former includes the "view" used to navigate to the job and the latter does not.

    Caveats:

    • Using the Without View link doesn't seem to work for multibranch pipeline jobs as of writing (Jenkins 2.121.2; build status plugin 1.9): it genereates a link like:

      http://JENKINS_HOME/job/MultiBranchJobName/BranchName/badge/icon

      but it needs to be modified to treat the branch as a job, like:

      http://JENKINS_HOME/job/MultiBranchJobName/job/BranchName/badge/icon

    • If your branch name has a /, it looks like only the (with view) protected links escape it properly, where the / becomes %252F. Other links use %2F and need to be manually adjusted to %252F.
