how can I trigger a jenkins job after claim a failure?

Question

In jenkins plugin, claim plugin can help to claim a failure job with reasons.

And with the latest version (2.6+), it is able to run a global groovy script to do some notification whenever a claim is changed

But how can I trigger another job in this script ? it shall pass important parameters like jenkins name, build number and failure reason.

Finally I got answer by myself, the claim plugin is hacked using post job action, so it could be done like trigger downstream job. See code sample below:

import hudson.model.*

def job = Hudson.instance.getJob('ClaimNotify')
def build = action.owner

def causeAction = new CauseAction(new Cause.UpstreamCause(build))

Hudson.instance.queue.schedule(job,0, causeAction)

You can pass parameter there as well or in downstream job to fetch it as well.

more information about schedule function, can check jenkins javadoc
