[JENKINS-12246] Create a new button called Queue Now (or do a plugin for this) #7030

Open timja opened 12 years ago

timja commented 12 years ago

Hi it would be a nice feature to have a button called Queue Now that does the Build Now but respecting the quiet period.

What I would like to do is that whenever a build started (scheduled, polled or manually) a "before build" email is sent to QA so they are aware that the application will be down for a few minutes. The quiet period would serve for them to close their work and so on ... (I already have the before build email with email-ext)

Today if I do a Build Now, the build starts right away and there is no quiet period.

Another way to handle this would be to have a new checkbox that says: Always respect Quiet Period?

mambu:

The quiet period has another "original" meaning in jenkins: it is needed when triggering the build by a change in a repository... anyway I thick this is another feature that has nothing to do with the dashboard view plugin (which uses the standard jenkins links and view to generate most of the UI to be consistent).
I believe a new plugin would be the best.
