How to fetch output of concourse job through HTTP API

[kalrashubham49]

Hello,

I have integrated concourse HTTP API's for creating , unpausing and triggering build for the pipelines, however i am stuck how to get response of job in my pipeline.

My Operation succeeded , and i want to fetch response for my my pipeline job execution (not status) , but i am not able to find api in routes.go for that , can you please help me with this.

In the attached screenshot , i want to get the response of the job but when i am hitting the API for getting job i am getting response as :

{"id":53,"name":"test-http","pipeline_name":"apipipeline24","team_name":"main","next_build":null,"finished_build":{"id":62,"team_name":"main","name":"1.1","status":"succeeded","job_name":"test-http","api_url":"/api/v1/builds/62","pipeline_name":"apipipeline24","start_time":1605842533,"end_time":1605842534,"rerun_number":1,"rerun_of":{"id":61,"name":"1"}},"outputs":[{"name":"clair-communication","resource":"clair"}],"groups":null}

In output i am getting only name and resource.

If you are looking for the logs the are output in the build then the endpoint is BuildEvents - /api/v1/builds/:build_id/events. You should be aware that the HTTP API for Concourse is not necessarily stable and the only supported clients of it are https://github.com/concourse/concourse/tree/master/go-concourse and the Concourse web UI.

Hi Andy , Thanks for the response, I acknowledge API might not be stable as this API is not working in Concourse 6.6.0, Just checked its implementation in Concourse 6.6.0 Go Code, there is nothing which is returning the data. func (s *Server) BuildEvents(build db.Build) http.Handler { return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { streamDone := make(chan struct{}) go func() { defer close(streamDone) s.eventHandlerFactory(s.logger, build).ServeHTTP(w, r) }() select { case <-streamDone: } }) }

The s.eventHandlerFactory(s.logger, build).ServeHTTP(w, r) is returning the data: https://github.com/concourse/concourse/blob/master/atc/api/buildserver/eventhandler.go#L18
