Information about a Hudson agent node.

Ideally this would have been in the hudson.slaves package, but for compatibility reasons, it can't.

TODO: move out more stuff to DumbSlave. On February, 2016 a general renaming was done internally: the "slave" term was replaced by "Agent". This change was applied in: UI labels/HTML pages, javadocs and log messages. Java classes, fields, methods, etc were not renamed to avoid compatibility issues. See JENKINS-27268.

Field Detail

name

protected String name

Name of this agent node.

remoteFS

protected final String remoteFS

Path to the root of the workspace from the view point of this node, such as "/hudson", this need not be absolute provided that the launcher establishes a consistent working directory, such as "./.jenkins-slave" when used with an SSH launcher. NOTE: if the administrator is using a relative path they are responsible for ensuring that the launcher used provides a consistent working directory

Method Detail

getUserId

public String getUserId()

Return id of user which created this agent

Returns:

id of user

setUserId

public void setUserId(String userId)

getLauncher

public ComputerLauncher getLauncher()

setLauncher

public void setLauncher(ComputerLauncher launcher)

getRemoteFS

public String getRemoteFS()

getNodeName

public String getNodeName()

Description copied from class: Node

Name of this node.

Specified by:

getNodeName in class Node

Returns:

"" if this is master

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

setNodeName

public void setNodeName(String name)

Description copied from class: Node

When the user clones a Node, Hudson uses this method to change the node name right after the cloned Node object is instantiated.

This method is never used for any other purpose, and as such for all practical intents and purposes, the node name should be treated like immutable.

Specified by:

setNodeName in class Node

setNodeDescription

@DataBoundSetter
public void setNodeDescription(String value)

getNodeDescription

public String getNodeDescription()

Description copied from class: Node

Human-readable description of this node.

Specified by:

getNodeDescription in class Node

getNumExecutors

public int getNumExecutors()

Description copied from class: Node

Returns the number of Executors. This may be different from getExecutors().size() because it takes time to adjust the number of executors.

Specified by:

getNumExecutors in class Node

setNumExecutors

@DataBoundSetter
public void setNumExecutors(int n)

getMode

public Node.Mode getMode()

Description copied from class: Node

Returns Node.Mode.EXCLUSIVE if this node is only available for those jobs that exclusively specifies this node as the assigned node.

Specified by:

getMode in class Node

setMode

@DataBoundSetter
public void setMode(Node.Mode mode)

getNodeProperties

public DescribableList<NodeProperty<?>,NodePropertyDescriptor> getNodeProperties()

Description copied from class: Node

Gets the NodeProperty instances configured for this Node.

Specified by:

getNodeProperties in class Node

setNodeProperties

@DataBoundSetter
public void setNodeProperties(List<? extends NodeProperty<?>> properties)
                                        throws IOException

Throws:

IOException

getRetentionStrategy

public RetentionStrategy getRetentionStrategy()

setRetentionStrategy

@DataBoundSetter
public void setRetentionStrategy(RetentionStrategy availabilityStrategy)

getLabelString

public String getLabelString()

Description copied from class: Node

Returns the manually configured label for a node. The list of assigned and dynamically determined labels is available via Node.getAssignedLabels() and includes all labels that have been manually configured. Mainly for form binding.

Specified by:

getLabelString in class Node

setLabelString

@DataBoundSetter
public void setLabelString(String labelString)
                                     throws IOException

Description copied from class: Node

Sets the label string for a node. This value will be returned by Node.getLabelString().

Overrides:

setLabelString in class Node

Parameters:

labelString - The new label string to use.

Throws:

IOException

getClockDifferenceCallable

public hudson.remoting.Callable<ClockDifference,IOException> getClockDifferenceCallable()

Description copied from class: Node

Returns a Callable that when run on the channel, estimates the clock difference.

Specified by:

getClockDifferenceCallable in class Node

Returns:

always non-null.

createComputer

public Computer createComputer()

Description copied from class: Node

Creates a new Computer object that acts as the UI peer of this Node. Nobody but Jenkins.updateComputerList() should call this method.

Specified by:

createComputer in class Node

Returns:

Created instance of the computer. Can be null if the Node implementation does not support it (e.g. Cloud agent).

getWorkspaceFor

public FilePath getWorkspaceFor(TopLevelItem item)

Description copied from class: Node

Returns a "workspace" directory for the given TopLevelItem.

Workspace directory is usually used for keeping out the checked out source code, but it can be used for anything.

Specified by:

getWorkspaceFor in class Node

Returns:

null if this node is not connected hence the path is not available

getRootPath

@CheckForNull
public FilePath getRootPath()

Description copied from class: Node

Gets the root directory of this node.

Hudson always owns a directory on every node. This method returns that.

Specified by:

getRootPath in class Node

Returns:

null if the node is offline and hence the FilePath object is not available.

getWorkspaceRoot

@CheckForNull
public FilePath getWorkspaceRoot()

Root directory on this agent where all the job workspaces are laid out.

Returns:

null if not connected.

createLauncher

@Nonnull
public Launcher createLauncher(TaskListener listener)

Creates a launcher for the agent.

Specified by:

createLauncher in class Node

Returns:

If there is no computer it will return a Launcher.DummyLauncher, otherwise it will return a Launcher.RemoteLauncher instead.

getComputer

@CheckForNull
public SlaveComputer getComputer()

Gets the corresponding computer object.

Returns:

this method can return null if there's no Computer object for this node, such as when this node has no executors at all.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

readResolve

protected Object readResolve()

Invoked by XStream when this object is read into memory.

getDescriptor

public Slave.SlaveDescriptor getDescriptor()

Description copied from interface: Describable

Gets the descriptor for this instance.

Descriptor is a singleton for every concrete Describable implementation, so if a.getClass() == b.getClass() then by default a.getDescriptor() == b.getDescriptor() as well. (In rare cases a single implementation class may be used for instances with distinct descriptors.)

Specified by:

getDescriptor in interface Describable<Node>

Specified by:

getDescriptor in class Node
