Manish Ranglani (8●3●5) | asked Apr 29 '14, 9:40 a.m.

Hello Everyone,

I am new to RTC and Jenkins world.

I have added RTC - plugin and build tool kit to Jenkins and test connection with the RTC is successful.

Now i need to pull source code from RTC using Jenkins.

If you can guide me ahead.

Thanks in advance

you create a build definition on RTC that says load from this workspace (these components) ... and u need a build engine on RTC that talks to Jenkins.
my jenkins job looks like this

Thanks for the reply Sam.

I tried to create a new build engine but i cant see option for Jenkin engine type.

and u could also just select the 'Just accept and fetch from a build workspace' instead of using a build definition

select new Build Engine, Create new, then u should see this dialog

I will go with 'Just accept and fetch from a build workspace' this option.

In build trigger section which condition can help me to create a build when ever a new change is checked-in?

RTC does not provide an 'immediate' build trigger. the build engines (JBE and Jenkins) need to poll.

on the JBE build engine definition says how often (default 3 minutes)..
on the jenkins side, in the job either select build periodically, or poll scm
both will ask for the schedule, see the ? help for the format. (cron typically)

in the RTC build definition, there is a checkbox for build only if changes. so it will poll, check for changes, and if none, quit silently.

My apology, I mis-read your question and assumed you were asking about UrbanCode Deploy/RTC/Jenkins. If you are not using UrbanCode Deploy, then the above technote does not apply to your case.
