Questions tagged [hudson-api]

The Hudson API provides you to communicate with its basic functionalities via REST.

You can use the API with

  • XML
  • JSON with JSONP support
  • Python

to do things like

  • retrieve information from Hudson for programmatic consumption
  • trigger a new build
  • create/copy jobs

Just try it on your houdson server e.g. http://yourhudsonserver/api/ or http://yourhudsonserver/job/foo/lastSuccessfulBuild/api/

For further documentation have a look at the Hudson Remote access API.
