Using JSON payload in Jenkins project about jenkins-gitlab-hook-plugin HOT 3 CLOSED

Well, currently you can't really do that with this plugin.
https://github.com/swipely/jenkins-git-notes-plugin might be of interest to you, since it adds git notes for builds, which includes the merge commits as well. Would that be OK?

Thanks for the link! It's not quite what I'm looking for since I'm mostly interested in retrieving the data that GitLab sends. GitLab also doesn't have any true support for git notes (yet?), since the only way you can see the note in GitLab is by going to the network graph and clicking on the note, or by using the git command line.

I'll keep looking into it in the future and perhaps do some development of my own, but I have a lot on my plate right now. Thanks again.

Cool. As for the building this, I suppose it could be built but not inside the hook loop. This is because the hook is not really related to the build cycle on Jenkins. One the hook does it's job, it pretty much is detached from the rest of the process.

I guess one way could be to build a plugin that adds build steps to the Jenkins job. The build step would get the branch and commit for the build and then call Gitlab API to do what you need it to do. But again, it seems to me it is a different plugin altogether (or maybe a different part inside this one). When you decide you're ready to dive into this issue, let me know, maybe I can give a hand.
