  Becoming a Jenkins contributor: Newbie-friendly tickets

  Two months ago I published an introductory article on the journey of becoming a Jenkins contributor. In that first article, the jenkins.io site was reviewed, learning about the multiple ways in which we can participate and contribute. Then, a first—​basic—​contribution I made to the site repository was described. Now, in this new article we will be exploring more advanced contributions, committing code to the...

  The Audit Log Plugin for Jenkins is an in development project to integrate standardized audit logging trails to various core actions in Jenkins. This project integrates the recently released Apache Log4j Audit library to allow for a vast array of possible audit logging destinations and configuration.

• Introducing the Jenkins Templating Engine!

  Implementing DevSecOps practices at the enterprise scale is challenging. With multiple programming languages, automated testing frameworks, and security compliance tools being used by different applications within your organization, it becomes difficult to build and maintain pipelines for each team. Most pipelines are going to follow the same generic workflow regardless of which specific tech stack is employed by an application. ...

• A Big Step of the Chinese Localization

  Since 2017, I started to do some contributions to the Jenkins community. As a beginner, translation might be the easiest way to help the project. You don’t need to understand the whole context, even to create a ticket in the issue tracker system. Improvement of localization usually is minor. But some problems occurred soon, there isn’t a native speaker of Chinese that could...

• First successful use of Jenkins telemetry

  Half a year ago we delivered a security fix for Jenkins that had the potential to break the entire Jenkins UI. We needed to change how Jenkins, through the Stapler web framework, handled HTTP requests, tightening the rules around what requests would be processed by Jenkins. In the six months since, we didn’t receive notable reports of problems resulting from this change,...

• Security spring cleaning

  Today we published a security advisory that mostly informs about issues in Jenkins plugins that have no fixes. What’s going on? The Jenkins security team triages incoming reports both to Jira and our non-public mailing list. Once we’ve determined it is a plugin not maintained by any Jenkins security team members, we try to inform the plugin maintainer about the issue, offering our...

• The journey of becoming a Jenkins contributor: Introduction

  As a software engineer, for many years I have used open source software (frameworks, libraries, tools…​) in the different companies I have worked at. However, I had never been able to engage in an open-source project as a contributor, until now. Since I made my first—​ridiculously simple—​commit into Jenkins, six months ago (in September, 2018), I have been attempting to contribute more to the...
