Jenkins is neat if you use a shared repo. Yes, the functions are weird (a file is a function, and the function inside is named
call
.), but having a default list of*Pipeline.Jenksfile
(ingestionPipeline, modelPipeline, parserPipeline, dataProductPipeline, etc - data engineer here) is so nice. You can also specify which branch of that repo you are running as well!It's less neat if you previously had to migrate off of a Jenkins that had everything running as root, to a Jenkins that doesn't.
At least if you fix a bug for a function that's used in multiple pipelines, it's fixed everywhere. Or if you fix a bug in a single pipeline, it's fixed for multiple repos.
edit: the Groovy language isn't great though. Not being able to pass kwargs in my own order, unclear how to define the pipeline (somewhat lacking docs, grabbing working examples from SO). I wish something like Python would've been used instead.
