get result of jenkins job for sure using the python jenkins api

The scenario I ran into is that I had a build queued and a build running that was spawned from an entirely different source than the jenkins api that would both eventually succeed or fail. I then spawned a build from the jenkins api a which would eventually fail. If I invoke the build with the block parameter set to true and another build gets queued up while my jenkins api job is building, when the job is done how do I tell if the job I spawned succeeded for sure?

jen = jenkinsapi.jenkins.Jenkins(os.getenv('JENKINS_URL'), 'user', 'password')
builds = jj.get_build_dict()
returned_value = jj.invoke(block=True, params=buildparams)
#



Do some code here to check if the build was a success



#
I tried getting the build number to query out of the build dictonairy using jj.get_build_dict() again, but the problem is that there are multiple builds that my build could be. Is there a way in the jenkins cli or the jenkins api to get the build number back after calling the invoke method with the wait parameter?

Easy install installs an old deprecated version of the Jenkins api. Going directly to the source and installing will give you a version that you can get an invocation object back from the invoke method. https://github.com/salimfadhley/jenkinsapi https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/pull/58/files
