Overview  

Setting up a Jenkins job in the jclouds DEV@cloud account to trigger on Pull Requests is a three-step process:  

  1. Configure the Jenkins job in DEV@cloud 
  2. Create the Service Hook in GitHub 

  3. Configure the Service Hook via the GitHub API

Prerequisites

DEV@cloud Account

If you don't have a DEV@cloud account with rights to create Jenkins jobs for jclouds, plesae send an email to the dev list requesting access.  

Admin Rights in GitHub

You'll need to be able to administer the GitHub repo for which you're looking to create a pull request job. If you can see the Settings link for the repo, you should be OK.  

Configuring the Jenkins Job

Log in to the jclouds DEV@cloud account and create a new job on the pull requests tab. Your best bet is to clone of the existing pull request jobs and modify the source repository.

Creating the GitHub Service Hook  

Go to the Settings > Service Hooks menu and create a new WebHook URLs entry pointing at https://jclouds.ci.cloudbees.com/github-pull-request-hook/

Configuring the Service Hook

Unfortunately, the Service Hook we have just created listens to the wrong repository event (push instead of pull_request) and sends the wrong type of data, and that's not (yet) something we can change via the GitHub site. We'll use the GitHub HTTP API instead.
