Issue
Is there a way to trigger the same job when the build is finished. I have one job that needed to be run until I aborted it manually. Is there a way to accomplish this?
Solution
This is a pretty crazy request. Are you sure that's what you want to do? If you just want to keep up to date you could just have the job build when the SCM system changes- even down to using the filesystem as an SCM.
If you really want to do it though, it is possible. You can't just tell it to trigger itself, but you can use the REST api.
Add a shell build step with the line
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/job/Tester/build
and a new job will get scheduled each time you run build.
