hook development in continuous integration environment

[Kevin Mayer]

We have checked our stash hooks into a git repository. Upon checkin, the post-receive hook kicks off a build in our jenkins environment. When the build gets executed we get errors similar to the following:

[ERROR] 'dependencies.dependency.version' for com.atlassian.stash:stash-api:jar is missing. @ line 28, column 21

I have gone into https://maven.atlassian.com/content/groups/public/com/ and done a mvn install to install an appropriate jar file(the correct version 2.2.0) such as stash-api-2.2.0.jar

Is there a better way to get all of the correct dependencies installed? We are concerned that running atlas-create-stash-plugin from the atlassian-plugin-sdk-4.1.6 will overwrite other versions of packages we have installed.

Hi Charles,

that worked. thanks. we also added this parameter to the jenkins build for the compile goal.

DATLAS_HOME=/usr/local/atlassian_sdk_4.1.6/atlassian-plugin-sdk-4.1.6

thanks again,

Kevin

Hi Charles

The jenkins box is using maven 3.0.4. Can you provide a suggestion how I would use atlas-mvn for this build?

Hi Kevin,

Apologies, you don't actually need atlas-mvn in this case (it's really for client-side development). Just ensure you have Maven 2.1.0 installed on Jenkins and your plugin should build successfully.

Charles, thank you for looking at this.

Here is the pom. After a number of mvn installs, the build error on jenkins is a java stacktrace:

Hi Kevin,

Hmm. That appears to work. What version of maven are you using BTW? You can/should use atlas-mvn instead, which is a wrapper around Maven 2.1.0.

Cheers,

Charles

Hi Kevin,

I'm fairly certain that's related purely to your pom.xml configuration, and not the install dependencies. Have you specified the version of stash-api that you want? Your pom.xml should contain an entry like this:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.atlassian.stash</groupId>
    <artifactId>stash-api</artifactId>
    <version>${stash.version}</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

You might also want to take a look at some of our Stash plugin examples on Bitbucket which use the dependencyManagement to include stash-parent, which then allows you to omit the version on stash dependencies.

After that running the normal 'mvn package' or 'mvn install' should download all the required dependencies and then compile/test your hook.

I hope this helps. If not please post your pom.xml so we can take a look

Charles
