Sample Jenkins build script to generate output via DITA-OT & copy results to web server

jenkins_build.sh

#!/bin/bash

# This script is run by Jenkins to execute all tests.
# It gets passed two parameters, the first one is either "ci" or "nightly" to
# indicate what kind of tests should be run. The second one is the branch that
# is being tested. This script should either work for all branches (makes
# merging easier) or each branch contains code that is specific for this branch,
# in which case you might want to double check that everything works after
# merging.

# Call this script (`build-files/jenkins`) in the Build section of the Jenkins 
# job configuration via Add build step > Execute shell > command:

# BRANCH=$(basename $GIT_BRANCH)
# ./build-files/jenkins ci $BRANCH


if [ "$1" == "ci" ]; then
  echo "Continuous integration check for branch $2"
  RET=0

  set +e # if one command fails then exit

  # Run documentation build script, which sets up the DITA-OT environment & runs Ant tasks to build output
  bash build-files/build.sh

  BRANCH=$(basename $GIT_BRANCH)

  # Clean & re-create target output directory before moving the new generated output
  rm -r /var/www/$BRANCH/manual
  mkdir /var/www/$BRANCH/manual

  # Copy all `output` subfolders to Web server "as-is"
  cp -r output/* /var/www/$BRANCH/manual

  exit $RET
elif [ "$1" == "nightly" ]; then
  echo "Nightly check for branch $2"
  RET=0

    #make || RET=1

  exit $RET
else
  echo "Unknown parameter: $1" && exit 1
