Server Status (Paused for Shut-down vs. Running Normally) via HTTP API?

[Randall R Schulz]

Hi,

Is it possible to ascertain via one of the HTTP API queries whether a Jenkins server has been put into its preparing-for-shutdown mode?

Is that a "no"?

No one knows?

I attempted to find such an API and was unsuccessful.  However, I did not investigate the source code.

If you're willing to read HTTP, you could read the top level page and search for the string that says Jenkins is preparing to shutdown.

Mark,

That's what I ended up doing (scan the "Manage Jenkins" page's HTML, that is). I think it's reliable enough, because I look for the URLs, either .../quietDown or .../cancelQuietDown. So unless those URLs are changed, the detector I wrote will work.
