Clean Hudson Workspace Before Build

In order to clean/delete the workspace before the build, “Add Build Step”, select “Execute Shell”, and use Hudson $WORKSPACE variable to delete the target directory:

rm -rf $WORKSPACE/target/*

Here is what it will look like:

clean hudson workspace before build

built-in support is on the way: HUDSON-3966

Set Hudson Home Directory

The easiest way is to:

sudo vi /etc/default/hudson

and change:

# hudson home location
HUDSON_HOME=/home/hudson

But, of course, it would be cool to just drive it from the shell’s ENV variable, which does not work at the moment of writing: hence the above “certain way” to do it.
