• Select Git as source code management and put the URL of the repository
  • If your repository is private, you have to create a new Creadential for it, for instance using an SSH key with your Phabricator username, You'll add the public key to your phabricator profile: https://c4science.ch/settings/panel/ssh/

• If you want to periodically build the project, select the option under Build triggers and use this syntax H/30 * * * * to build every 30 mn. See complete documentation about the syntax by clicking on the question mark on the right of the field

Trigger build on commit

• You can trigger a build from Phabricator using Harbormaster and Herald applications, either on commit or on differential

Harbormaster (run build)

• Create a Build Plan for your repository, https://c4science.ch/harbormaster/plan/
• Add a new Build Step of type "Make HTTP Request"

• You'll have to create a token on your Jenkins job, go to your job configuration page under Build Triggers, tick "Trigger builds remotely" and create a token.
  • The best would be some random string, you can generate one like this on a linux shell: head -c 16 /dev/urandom | md5sum
• Go back to your Build step on Phabricator and add the following URL, https://jenkins.c4science.ch/buildByToken/build?PHID=${target.phid}&token=<your token>&job=<your job name>
• Select "Wait For Message" on the When Complete field.
• Save your step

Herald (Notification and action)

• Go to Herald, https://c4science.ch/herald/
• Create a new Rule on Commits of type Global
• Give it a name and select the condition as "Repository is any of <your repository>"
• Then select the "Run build plans" action with your newly created Build plan
• Save the rule
• Now when a commit is pushed on your repository, a build will be generated on your Jenkins job and the result will be reported back to phabricator.
• You can access the jenkins job build in the harbormaster build, under artifacts, as shown on this image
