Extra Columns

Note

Older versions of this plugin may not be safe to use. Please review the following warnings before using an older version:

• Stored XSS vulnerability

Purpose

This is a plugin for the Jenkins CI server which provides additional columns in the main UI screen. It's using the listview-column extension. Since additional columns do not require a lot of code, the intention is to bundle multiple columns in one plugin instead of having a separate plugin for each column.

It currently provides the following columns:

• Build description
  • Shows the build description of the last build
  • Options: Force column width
• Build duration
  • Show last build duration
  • Options: Time since build started, average duration, average duration compact
• Build parameters
  • Shows either all build parameters or build parameters maching a regular expression
  • Options: Use regular expression
• Configure build button
  • Show shortcut to configuration page of a job
• Disable/enable Project button/icon
  • Disable/enable job with one click
  • Options: Use button or icon
• Job type
  • Show job type (eg. Freestyle, Maven, Multi Branch, etc)
  • Options: Use pronoun
• Last build
  • Shows last build
  • Options: Build Start/End, Build Selector, Show relative times, Show link to build
• Last build node
  • Shows last build node, where job was running
• Last/current build console
  • Shows shortcut to last/current build console
• Last project configuration modification
  • Shows date of last configuration modification
• Periodic build trigger
  • Shows last build trigger in cron format
• Project description
  • Shows the job/project description
  • Options: Display job name, Trim description, Force column width
• SCM type
  • Shows the type of SCM that is used in the job (e.g. CVS, SVN, Git)
• Agent or label restriction
  • Shows the agent or label restrictions
• Test result
  • Shows the test results of the last build
  • Options: Test result format
• User name
  • Shows the name of the user that started the last build
• Workspace link
  • Shows a link to the job's workspace

Some columns have been adapted from existing plugins that in some cases are not actively maintained anymore, e.g.

• Build node plugin (SUSPENDED)
• Configure job column plugin
• Console column plugin
• Description column plugin
• Job type column plugin

You have an idea for a new column or want to improve an existing column?

The fastest way to get this done, is to fork the GitHub project, take a look at the existing code, copy and/or modify a column and create a pull-request.
