Add a custom link to hudson project page

Question

I'm using Hudson to generate the documentation for a Python project using Sphinx. This generates HTML documentation in the folder project/_build/html, which I set up to be used as an build artifact. Now after running the job, I can navigate to the documentation by clicking on the "Artifacts" link, then on the folder, and then on the index.html file. That's a bit cumbersome so I would like to customize the project page so I can have a "View Documentation" link that takes me straight to the index.html file. Is there any way to do that with hudson?

Answer 1

I know the question is closed, but I thought you could try this. You don't need a separate http server just to serve HTML documentation, artifact or not. You can use the plugin: http://wiki.hudson-ci.org/display/HUDSON/HTML+Publisher+Plugin

Answer 2

The Project Description allows HTML, just edit it and place the link to your docs from the last successful build.

Answer 3

Get the sidelink plugin. That let's you add a link to the ones that are on the left-hand side of the project page.
