jenkins automatic deploy

Question

i have three jobs job1:api  job2:ui   job3:deploy

i have to auto mate job 3 when job1 and job 2 build is completed it should have to trigger job 3

Answer 1

You could probably configure these 3 jobs in a Jenkins pipeline. 

• Creating all the 3 jobs the next step we have to do is to connect them in the form of a pipeline. In order to do this we need to configure two things: Build Triggers and Post Build Actions.

• Inorder to automate job3, what you can do is you can configure a post build step in job 2 where you can trigger job 3 automatically, after job2 build is complete.

• For a basic understanding of how a jenkins pipeline is to be configured you could refer to  https://www.edureka.co/community/48208/possible-create-jenkins-pipeline-without-using-jenkinsfile

i have been configured those three jobs through pipeline only .

 i will explain in details with the first two jobs we can get one tar and jar file .

first two jobs will will trigger automatically when code checkin.

third job i am copying those files from console i need to build them .i have written pipeline script for that .

the thing is that i need to trigger automatically third job .

right now i am using build trigger option .

i need any other way we can automate using any script or any some other option

Since you have mentioned that your Job 3 is a deploy job, I guess your requirement is for automated deployment, if i have got that right.

There are many plugins available which can be used to transfer the build files after a successful build to the respective application/web server. One example is the “Deploy to container Plugin”.

You could probably try it to serve your purpose. Check this out: https://plugins.jenkins.io/deploy
