If Chuck Norris had created <– nice try :).

I’m quite reluctant about adding a public web service for this purpose since many Hudson installation out there live within an internal network without any connection to the outside world.

However, I am keen on separating the facts/jokes from the plugin code so that it’s easier to manage.

I’ll test v0.2 of the plugin against Hudson 1.318 tonight and put the result as a reply of your comment on the plugin’s wiki page.

You should provide a way for people to suggest Chuck Norris facts. Then the plug in could pull new facts from a web service. Thus we could have a never ending stream of fun CN facts!

If Chuck Norris had created CNPi, this feature would be developed and deployed as soon as I suggested it.

Thanks for CNPi!

Yes please!

I want Chuck Norris to strike fear into developers who dare to break the build.

Doesn’t seem to work with 1.318. I get the text displayed but no graphics.

Looking at the source its pulling it from /hudson/plugin/chucknorris/images yet you can’t hit this. I’ve tried dropping back to v0.1 but thats the same.

Any ideas?

Very cool. So cool in fact I included it in my roundup of kick-ass plugins (http://www.wakaleo.com/blog/228-kickass-hudson-plugins-part-1-setenv-and-the-description-setter)!

Thanks!

Awesome; I can see Chuck in v0.2

I don’t think moving the charts down would be a problem — they are more for long-term use and I’m happy to scroll (I see them all the time anyway).

Thanks!

I’ve made the style change and released v0.2 .
The background image should never be blocked this time.

Good point about Chuck Norris shouldn’t be blocked by any graph. However, I can’t put the image prior to those graphs/charts since that would add extra scrolling for people to see the data on the graphs/charts.

What I can do is to add some space at the end of panel so that Chuck’s image would still be visible.

I’ll make this change in v0.2 .

I just upgraded to 1.323 — I can see the images :)
…well some of them; Chuck is mostly hidden behind my Findbugs trend graph :(

An ideal fix (at least for me) would be if you could force Chuck+Quote to be at the top right before any of the actual plugin charts, etc… so that he would be adjacent to the build summary details in the left column. Or even directly beneath all the build information; right now he appears to be fixed to the background and a chart overlays most of him.

I think Chuck Norris would roundhouse kick any task trend chart that tried to get in his way!

Great plugin though… would really like to have it working! :)

Thanks!

I had to restart Hudson twice, I guess, to see Chuck in a build page.

//Left out from previous comment: Hudson V1.314

I’ve installed; and activated Chuck; I see the quotes… but no chuck… and no thumbs up.

I verified that the images are all there and also that the permissions are okay… also no error output in the logs.

I have a number of other plugins, etc installed (various charts: tasks, tests, etC) – could they be interferring?

Any other ideas?

This will be awesome one it works!

Thanks,

Ash

I have released v0.1 and it’s available for download from https://hudson.dev.java.net/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=11708&expandFolder=11708&folderID=5818

This plugin is still currently not showing up on the update center, I’ll check it again later.

After installing the plugin, visit the job’s configuration page and tick the ‘Activate Chuck Norris’ checkbox.
