Cancel queued builds and aborting executing builds using Groovy for Jenkins

Solution 1:

I haven't tested it myself, but looking at the API it should be possible in the following way:

import hudson.model.*
import jenkins.model.Jenkins

def q = Jenkins.instance.queue

q.items.findAll { it.task.name.startsWith('my') }.each { q.cancel(it.task) }

• http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/model/Queue.html

Solution 2:

I know it's kind of an old question, but Google points me to this one. The scripts shown here only remove the jobs from the queue, and don't stop running builds. The following script, just removes everything from the queue and kills all running builds:

  import java.util.ArrayList
  import hudson.model.*;
  import jenkins.model.Jenkins

  // Remove everything which is currently queued
  def q = Jenkins.instance.queue
  for (queued in Jenkins.instance.queue.items) {
    q.cancel(queued.task)
  }

  // stop all the currently running jobs
  for (job in Jenkins.instance.items) {
    stopJobs(job)
  }

  def stopJobs(job) {
    if (job in com.cloudbees.hudson.plugins.folder.Folder) {
      for (child in job.items) {
        stopJobs(child)
      }    
    } else if (job in org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.multibranch.WorkflowMultiBranchProject) {
      for (child in job.items) {
        stopJobs(child)
      }
    } else if (job in org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.job.WorkflowJob) {

      if (job.isBuilding()) {
        for (build in job.builds) {
        build.doKill()
        }
      }
    }
  }

Run this in Manage Jenkins > Script Console:

Jenkins.instance.queue.clear()

Solution 4:

couldn't add as a comment, but as of today with latest jenkins, Andrey's script (nice) requires another import to work. Executing as system Groovy script.

Jenkins errors and mentions the missing class. I included the url that mentioned the issue:

//import hudson.model.*
// per http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17429050/running-groovy-command-from-jenkins-using-groovy-script-plugin
// requires this now
import jenkins.model.Jenkins 

def q = Jenkins.instance.queue

q.items.findAll { it.task.name.startsWith('my') }.each { q.cancel(it.task) }

Solution 5:

After some investigation, I came up with this code which works absolutely fine for me. It clears the queue and also aborts all the jobs currently getting executed.

Prerequisites:

1. 'All' view contains all the jobs
2. Use System groovy

import jenkins.model.Jenkins
import hudson.*
import hudson.model.*
import jenkins.*

// Remove everything which is currently queued

Jenkins.instance.queue.clear()
def buildingJobs = Jenkins.instance.getAllItems(Job.class).findAll {
    it.isBuilding()
}

buildingJobs.each {
    def jobName = it.toString()
    def val = jobName.split("\\[|\\]")

    // 'Abort jobs' is the name of the job I have created, and I do not want it to abort itself.

    if((val[1].trim())!='Abort jobs') {
        def job = Jenkins.instance.getItemByFullName(val[1].trim())
        for (build in job.builds) {
            if (build.isBuilding()) {
                println(build)
                build.doStop();
            }
        }
    }
}
