GitHub Checks API for Jenkins Plugins. https://www.jenkins.io/projects/gsoc/2020/projects/github-checks/
Are there any docs for how to use the github checks api within a pipeline script? We had switched our project the newer github integration plugin but its just missing too much, so I was working on going back to pull request builder, but its missing the ability to set individual statuses, which is where this project comes in :)
unless that works already with jenkinsci/checks-api-plugin#7 ?
im wondering if its because of the way we have our hierarchy setup. We use github pull request builder to kick off a single toplevel job, which then will either run all of our subsequent jobs by name or specific ones via regex from a comment. Im trying to update those statuses as they come back from those builds since thats how we had it setup with the github integration plugin, it could use the github url and creds from the system fine
but because that toplevel doesnt actually do anything with git, the single lower jobs are the ones doing checkouts and git things, that toplevel one may have no concept of github that github-checks can use
it focused originally on multibranch pipelines and organisation folder pipelines
All our jobs in ci.jenkins.io use it. What exactly is not working? Did you correctly register the GitHub app?
As already mentioned, all of our public CI jobs use it. Can you make more clear what is actually happening when you say "does not work"? Did you follow all steps in Tims guide: https://github.com/jenkinsci/github-branch-source-plugin/blob/master/docs/github-app.adoc?
Hey guys. We're utilizing this plugin in concert with the
generic-webhooks-trigger plugin. After the Jenkins job is invoked via a webhook, the plugin is successfully sending the checks to github using the github-app credentials. However we are having difficulties understand how the "re-run" check integrates. Does the app have to be configured to hit the /github-webhook/ URI? What requirements are there in the pipeline job configuration for this to work?
and also can we publish HTML reports from jenkins throgh github checks api?
GitHub does only support markdown. You will find some examples in the Readme of the project.
thank you
can anyone please share an example to setup the checks in jenkinsfile
Just like @sai5714 I have a problem getting this to run.
The Readme of the project shows something, but that alone is not enough to make it work.
From what I was able to figure out you need to install "Checks API" plugin and "GitHub Checks" plugin.
But how to configure them to actually send requests to GitHub? I have no clue, and the documentation does not mention that.
The only thing I get so far is "[Checks API] No suitable checks publisher found.".
I've read somewhere that you need to add an Application to GitHub, but with what permissions and how to set it up in Jenkins is unclear for me.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have a warning about [Checks API] No suitable checks publisher found. and I can't find a way to publish my results
you also need to configure a github app
It's not shipped in...
Right ^^ Thanks you !
I think github app is configured but I will check it
I now have this error :
[GitHub Checks] Failed Publishing GitHub checks: org.kohsuke.github.GHFileNotFoundException: https://api.github.com/repos/Stores-Discount/stores-discount-payment-funnel/check-runs {"message":"Resource not accessible by integration","documentation_url":"https://docs.github.com/rest/reference/checks#create-a-check-run"}
Despite a lot of permissions being given. Is there a place to find precise permissions to give ?
It's now working ! Thanks a lot for the help @timja :)

Why do the GitHub checks in our CI use the Blue Oceans view to show the general Jenkins details? Can we change that? Everything else uses classic Jenkins...

Yes I updated my settings already. But that does work only for someone who is logged in. I think by default we should not show blue ocean anymore (in our CI).
Shoud I create a ticket for our INFRA team? Or is this a won't fix because we still love Blue Ocean?
Hi folks - just wondering if it's possible to use a github user to publish github statuses? I understand it's not recommended or best practice, but it's just to resolve a temporary permissions issue in our organization. Thanks.
