# Author: Matthew Kelly (Badgerati)
#
# This is a PowerShell wrapper around the inbuilt Jenkins CLI.
# It simplifies the calls to Jenkins, by just allowing you
# to call commands with a simple "jenkins" call.
#
# Best used with the path to the script in your PATH.
#
# Requirements:
#    jenkins-cli.jar
#
# Setup:
#    Before running this script, assign the location of your
#    jenkins-cli.jar file, and the endpoint to your Jenkins
#    website into the first two variables.
#
# Usage:
#    > jenkins <command> <arguments>
#
# Examples:
#    > jenkins login --username <username> --password <password>
#    > jenkins build "Test Website"
#    > jenkins list-jobs QA
