Jenkins and LabVIEW FPGA

[l3h]

Hi all, 

I want to set up a Jenkins pipeline to generate the bitstream for an FPGA VI. I went through the Jenkins Continuous Integration tutorial, but I'm not sure how you start compilation and if that would even work with the bitstream generation popups to pick the compile server. 

Can anyone offer any advice or experience in this matter, particularly for the bitstream generation? Is there a VI, command line option, etc. that can be used to execute the bitstream generation?

Thanks

That definitely appears to be helpful. Haven't verified fully because I've been doing other things. 

I apologize for the basic question but how do I understand the VI's in that project from the vi.lib folder if they are password protected. 

Where do I find documentation (for the vi.lib VI's) of what's available, how to use it, etc...?
