Basic AutoPkg Jenkins check script in Python.

autopkg_jenkins_check.py

#!/usr/bin/python
#
# This is a rough Python script that demonstrates running AutoPkg with Jenkins
# as only a "check" action, using the ScriptTrigger plugin. It's assumed
# that AutoPkg is running directly out of a Git checkout from somewhere, but
# this is not necessary.
#
# Also note that the the '-d' option is given to hardcoded recipe
# search directories.
#
# It runs autopkg using --check and --report-plist, parses the resultant plist and
# triggers a build (by exiting zero) only if the 'new_downloads' array contains
# anything.
#
# This script assumes (with no error handling) three arguments:
# 1. The path to a Git checkout of AutoPkg
# 2. Path to a recipe list
# 3. Path to a directory to be used for overrides.
