| Re: [cbi-dev] Building GitHub Pull Request on Eclipse's Jenkins |
Hi Jonah,
There is still a bit of momentum behind the GitHub pull request builder
plugin. The mentioned security issue and the necessary steps to fix it
are better explained in the security advisory here:
https://jenkins.io/security/advisory/2018-03-26/#SECURITY-261.
It can be used in freestyle jobs and has no pipeline support. I'd say
it's the right plugin if a project wants to build pull requests of a few
GitHub projects.
The GitHub Branch Source Plugin is more of a "build all you have on
GitHub" plugin, where a GitHub organization with all it's repos and
branches are monitored, etc. AFAIK it only works with pipeline jobs.
To sum it up: GHPRB plugin is probably the first step towards GitHub
based development. The GitHub Branch Source Plugin comes into play when
a project decides to switch to pipeline builds.
Regards,
Fred
