Jenkins and Perl

[blue_cowdawg]

I just discovered Jenkins and I'm having a blast with it having discovered all sorts of things I can do with it.

Looking at the plethora of plugins available I discovered a couple of plugins having to do with Perl that don't seem to be documented. These are:

• Perl Plugin
• Perl Smoke Test Plugin

Sadly there doesn't seem to be any documentation for them. Is there and I'm just not finding it?

I have no idea whether this is what you are looking for, but you can find quite a bit of documentation on the CPAN:

https://www.google.fr/search?q=cpan+jenkins&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&gws_rd=cr&ei=IMS_VZbzOoaWNof1kbgK)

and

I confess i have not been keeping up with new plugins, but here is my general Configuration that i use to build my CPAN modules from my github repo:

DIST=Your-Git-Distro

rm -f *.tar.gz
rm -rf ./$DIST

git clone git://github.com/jeffa/$DIST.git
cd $DIST

perl Makefile.PL
make
make {test,manifest,tardist}

mv $DIST-*.tar.gz ..
mv MANIFEST ../MANIFEST.txt
make veryclean

prove -rlj3 --formatter=TAP::Formatter::JUnit --timer t/| tee ../junit
+.xml
pod2html --infile lib/My/HardCoded/Path/To/Module.pm --outfile ../$DIS
+T.html

I also configure the "Files to archive" to *.tar.gz,*.txt,*.html (Archive the Artifacts) as well as set "Test report XMLs" to junit.xml (Publish JUnit test result report). The results are archives of the POD and distribution tar ball as well as a nice JUnit graph for the test pass/fails. Hope this helps!
