3.2.1. REST API

The REST API is a thin wrapper around the data API’s “Getter” and “Control” sections. It is also designed, in keeping with REST principles, to be discoverable. As such, the details of the paths and resources are not documented here. Begin at the root URL, and see the Data API documentation for more information.

3.2.1.1. Versions

The API described here is version 2. The ad-hoc API from Buildbot-0.8.x, version 1, is no longer supported [1].

The policy for incrementing the version is when there is incompatible change added. Removing a field or endpoint is considered incompatible change. Adding a field or endpoint is not considered incompatible, and thus will only be described as a change in release note. The policy is that we will avoid as much as possible incrementing version.

[1]The JSON API defined by status_json.py in Buildbot-0.8.x is considered version 1, although its root path was json, not api/v1.

3.2.1.2. Getting

To get data, issue a GET request to the appropriate path. For example, with a base URL of http://build.example.org/buildbot, the list of masters for builder 9 is available at http://build.example.org/buildbot/api/v2/builder/9/master.

resource type: collection

3.2.1.3. Collections

Results are formatted in keeping with the JSON API specification. The top level of every response is an object. Its keys are the plural names of the resource types, and the values are lists of objects, even for a single-resource request. For example:

{
  "meta": {
    "total": 2
  },
  "schedulers": [
    {
      "master": null,
      "name": "smoketest",
      "schedulerid": 1
    },
    {
      "master": {
        "active": true,
        "last_active": 1369604067,
        "link": "http://build.example.org/api/v2/master/1",
        "masterid": 1,
        "name": "master3:/BB/master"
      },
      "name": "goaheadtryme",
      "schedulerid": 2
    }
  ]
}

A response may optionally contain extra, related resources beyond those requested. The meta key contains metadata about the response, including the total count of resources in a collection.

Several query parameters may be used to affect the results of a request. These parameters are applied in the order described (so, it is not possible to sort on a field that is not selected, for example).

Field Selection

If only certain fields of each resource are required, the field query parameter can be used to select them. For example, the following will select just the names and id’s of all schedulers:

  • http://build.example.org/api/v2/scheduler?field=name&field=schedulerid

Field selection can be used for either detail (single-entity) or collection (multi-entity) requests. The remaining options only apply to collection requests.

Filtering

Collection responses may be filtered on any simple top-level field.

To select records with a specific value use the query parameter {field}={value}. For example, http://build.example.org/api/v2/scheduler?name=smoketest selects the scheduler named “smoketest”.

Filters can use any of the operators listed below, with query parameters of the form {field}__{operator}={value}.

eq
equality, or with the same parameter appearing multiple times, equality with one of the given values (so foo__eq=x&foo__eq=y would match resources where foo is x or y)
ne
inequality, or set exclusion
lt
select resources where the field’s value is less than {value}
le
select resources where the field’s value is less than or equal to {value}
gt
select resources where the field’s value is greater than {value}
ge
select resources where the field’s value is greater than or equal to {value}
contains
Select resources where the field’s value contains {value}. If the parameter is provided multiple times, results containing at least one of the values are returned (so foo__contains=x&foo__contains=y would match resources where foo contains x, y or both).

For example:

  • http://build.example.org/api/v2/builder?name__lt=cccc
  • http://build.example.org/api/v2/buildsets?complete__eq=false

Boolean values can be given as on/off, true/false, yes/no, or 1/0.

Sorting

Collection responses may be ordered with the order query parameter. This parameter takes a field name to sort on, optionally prefixed with - to reverse the sort. The parameter can appear multiple times, and will be sorted lexically with the fields arranged in the given order. For example:

  • http://build.example.org/api/v2/buildrequest?order=builderid&order=buildrequestid

3.2.1.4. Controlling

Data API control operations are handled by POST requests using a simplified form of JSONRPC 2.0. The JSONRPC “method” is mapped to the data API “action”, and the parameters are passed to that application.

The following parts of the protocol are not supported:

  • positional parameters
  • batch requests

Requests are sent as an HTTP POST, containing the request JSON in the body. The content-type header must be application/json.

A simple example:

POST http://build.example.org/api/v2/scheduler/4
--> {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "force", "params": {"revision": "abcd", "branch": "dev"}, "id": 843}
<-- {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": {"buildsetid": 44}, "id": 843}

3.2.1.5. Authentication

Authentication to the REST API is performed in the same manner as authentication to the main web interface. Once credentials have been established, a cookie will be set, which must be sent to the buildbot REST API with every request thereafter. For those buildbot instances using OAuth2 authentication providers, access tokens can be used for automated access. For example, GitHub’s personal access tokens can be used to access the buildbot as a github user without needing to store the username and password of the user. To use an OAuth2 access token, send a GET request to the /auth/login with the token URL parameter set to the access token that the OAuth2 provider has given you. A python example using requests is shown below, where we first authenticate with our OAuth2 access token, and then are able to request otherwise shielded endpoints:

import requests
s = requests.Session()
s.get("https://<buildbot_url>/auth/login", params={"token": OAUTH_TOKEN})
builders = s.get("https://<buildbot_url>/api/v2/builders").json()

3.2.1.6. Raml Specs

The Data API is documented in RAML 1.0 format. RAML describes and documents all our data, rest, and javascript APIs in a format that can be easily manipulated by human and machines.

Build

resource type: build
Attributes:
  • buildid (integer) – the unique ID of this build
  • number (integer) – the number of this build (sequential for a given builder)
  • builderid (integer) – id of the builder for this build
  • buildrequestid (integer) – build request for which this build was performed, or None if no such request exists
  • workerid (integer) – the worker this build ran on
  • masterid (integer) – the master this build ran on
  • started_at (date) – time at which this build started
  • complete (boolean) – true if this build is complete Note that this is a calculated field (from complete_at != None). Ordering by this field is not optimized by the database layer.
  • complete_at? (date) – time at which this build was complete, or None if it’s still running
  • properties? (sourcedproperties) – a dictionary of properties attached to build.
  • results? (integer) – the results of the build (see Build Result Codes), or None if not complete
  • state_string (string) – a string giving detail on the state of the build.

example

{
    "builderid": 10,
    "buildid": 100,
    "buildrequestid": 13,
    "workerid": 20,
    "complete": false,
    "complete_at": null,
    "masterid": 824,
    "number": 1,
    "results": null,
    "started_at": 1451001600,
    "state_string": "created",
    "properties": {}
}

This resource type describes completed and in-progress builds. Much of the contextual data for a build is associated with the build request, and through it the buildset.

Note

properties

This properties dict is only filled out if the properties filterspec is set.

Meaning that, property filter allows one to request the Builds DATA API like so:

  • api/v2/builds?property=propKey1&property=propKey2 (returns Build’s properties which match given keys)
  • api/v2/builds?property=* (returns all Build’s properties)
  • api/v2/builds?propKey1&property=propKey2&limit=30 (filters combination)

Important

When combined with field filter, to get properties, one should ensure properties field is set.

  • api/v2/builds?field=buildid&field=properties&property=workername&property=user

Logs

resource type: log
Attributes:
  • complete (boolean) – true if this log is complete and will not generate additional logchunks
  • logid (integer) – the unique ID of this log
  • name (string) – the name of this log (e.g., err.html)
  • num_lines (integer) – total number of line of this log
  • slug (identifier) – the “slug”, suitable for use in a URL, of this log (e.g., err_html)
  • stepid (integer) – id of the step containing this log
  • type (identifier) – log type, identified by a single ASCII letter; see logchunk for details.

example

{
    "logid": 60,
    "name": "stdio",
    "slug": "stdio",
    "stepid": 50,
    "complete": false,
    "num_lines": 0,
    "type": "s"
}

A log represents a stream of textual output from a step. The actual output is encoded as a sequence of logchunk resources. In-progress logs append logchunks as new data is added to the end, and event subscription allows a client to “follow” the log.

Each log has a “slug” which is unique within the step, and which can be used in paths. The slug is generated by addLog based on the name, using forceIdentifier and incrementIdentifier to guarantee uniqueness.

Todo

event: build.$buildid.step.$number.log.$logid.newlog

The log has just started. Logs are started when they are created, so this also indicates the creation of a new log.

event: build.$buildid.step.$number.log.$logid.complete

The log is complete.

Update Methods

All update methods are available as attributes of master.data.updates.

class buildbot.data.logs.Log
addLog(stepid, name, type)
Parameters:
  • stepid (integer) – stepid containing this log
  • name (string) – name for the log
Raises:

KeyError – if a log by the given name already exists

Returns:

logid via Deferred

Create a new log and return its ID. The name need not be unique. This method will generate a unique slug based on the name.

appendLog(logid, content):
Parameters:
  • logid (integer) – the log to which content should be appended
  • content (unicode) – the content to append

Append the given content to the given log. The content must end with a newline. All newlines in the content should be UNIX-style (\n).

finishLog(logid)
Parameters:logid (integer) – the log to finish

Mark the log as complete.

compressLog(logid)
Parameters:logid (integer) – the log to compress

Compress the given log, after it is finished. This operation may take some time.

logchunk

resource type: logchunk
Attributes:
  • content (string) – content of the chunk
  • firstline (integer) – zero-based line number of the first line in this chunk
  • logid (integer) – the ID of log containing this chunk

A logchunk represents a contiguous sequence of lines in a logfile. Logs are not individually addressable in the data API; instead, they must be requested by line number range. In a strict REST sense, many logchunk resources will contain the same line.

The chunk contents is represented as a single unicode string. This string is the concatenation of each newline terminated-line.

Each log has a type, as identified by the “type” field of the corresponding log. While all logs are sequences of unicode lines, the type gives additional information fo interpreting the contents. The defined types are:

  • t – text, a simple sequence of lines of text
  • s – stdio, like text but with each line tagged with a stream
  • h – HTML, represented as plain text
  • d – Deleted, logchunks for this log have been deleted by the Janitor

In the stream type, each line is prefixed by a character giving the stream type for that line. The types are i for input, o for stdout, e for stderr, and h for header. The first three correspond to normal UNIX standard streams, while the header stream contains metadata produced by Buildbot itself.

The offset and limit parameters can be used to select the desired lines. These are specified as query parameters via the REST interface, or as arguments to the get method in Python. The result will begin with line offset (so the resulting firstline will be equal to the given offset), and will contain up to limit lines.

Following example will get the first 100 lines of a log:

from buildbot.data import resultspec
first_100_lines = yield self.master.data.get(("logs", log['logid'], "contents"),
    resultSpec=resultspec.ResultSpec(limit=100))

Following example will get the last 100 lines of a log:

from buildbot.data import resultspec
last_100_lines = yield self.master.data.get(("logs", log['logid'], "contents"),
    resultSpec=resultspec.ResultSpec(offset=log['num_lines']-100))

Note

There is no event for a new chunk. Instead, the log resource is updated when new chunks are added, with the new number of lines. Consumers can then request those lines, if desired.

Update Methods

Log chunks are updated via log.

This resource type describes buildmasters in the buildmaster cluster.

Update Methods

All update methods are available as attributes of master.data.updates.

class buildbot.data.masters.Master
masterActive(name, masterid)
Parameters:
  • name (unicode) – the name of this master (generally hostname:basedir)
  • masterid (integer) – this master’s master ID
Returns:

Deferred

Mark this master as still active. This method should be called at startup and at least once per minute. The master ID is acquired directly from the database early in the master startup process.

sourcedproperties

resource type: sourcedproperties
Attributes:[] (object) – Each key of this map is the name of a defined property The value consist on a couple (source, value)

user-specified properties for this change, represented as an object mapping keys to tuple (value, source)

Properties are present in several data resources, but have a separate endpoints, because they can represent a large dataset.

Update Methods

All update methods are available as attributes of master.data.updates.

class buildbot.data.properties.Properties
setBuildProperty(buildid, name, value, source)
Parameters:
  • buildid (integer) – build ID
  • name (unicode) – Name of the property to set
  • value (Any JSON-able type is accepted (lists, dicts, strings and numbers)) – Value of the property
  • source (unicode) – Source of the property to set

Set a build property. If no property with that name exists in that build, a new property will be created.

setBuildProperties(buildid, props)
Parameters:
  • buildid (integer) – build ID
  • props (IProperties) – Name of the property to set

Synchronise build properties with the db. This sends only one event in the end of the sync, and only if properties changed. The event contains only the updated properties, for network efficiency reasons.

sourcestamp

resource type: sourcestamp
Attributes:
  • ssid (integer) –

    the ID of this sourcestamp

    Note

    For legacy reasons, the abbreviated name ssid is used instead of canonical sourcestampid. This might change in the future (bug #3509).

  • branch? (string) – code branch, or none for the “default branch”, whatever that might mean
  • codebase (string) – revision for this sourcestamp, or none if unknown
  • created_at (date) – the timestamp when this sourcestamp was created
  • patch? (patch) – the patch for this sourcestamp, or none
  • project (string) – user-defined project to which this sourcestamp corresponds
  • repository (string) – repository where this sourcestamp occurred
  • revision? (string) – revision for this sourcestamp, or none if unknown

A source stamp represents a particular version of the source code. Absolute sourcestamps specify this completely, while relative sourcestamps (with revision = None) specify the latest source at the current time. Source stamps can also have patches; such stamps describe the underlying revision with the given patch applied.

Note that, depending on the underlying version-control system, the same revision may describe different code in different branches (e.g., SVN) or may be independent of the branch (e.g., Git).

The created_at timestamp can be used to indicate the first time a sourcestamp was seen by Buildbot. This provides a reasonable default ordering for sourcestamps when more reliable information is not available.

Raw endpoints

Raw endpoints allow to download content in their raw format (i.e. not within a json glue). The content-disposition http header is set, so that the browser knows which file to store the content to.

path: /builders/{builderid_or_buildername}/builds/{build_number}/steps/{step_name}/logs/{log_slug}/raw
Path Keys:
  • | identifier builderid_or_buildername (number) – the ID or name of the builder
  • build_number (number) – the number of the build within the builder
  • step_name (identifier) – the slug name of the step
  • log_slug (identifier) – the slug name of the log

This endpoint allows to get the raw logs for downloading into a file. This endpoint does not provide paging capabilities. For stream log types, the type line header characters are dropped. ‘text/plain’ is used as the mime type except for html logs, where ‘text/html’ is used. The ‘slug’ is used as the filename for the resulting download. Some browsers are appending ".txt" or ".html" to this filename according to the mime-type.
