EDIT START
As of Kony 7 there is a better way to do headless builds:
http://docs.kony.com/konylibrary/visualizer/visualizer_user_guide/Content/CommandLine.htm
Basically use the HeadlessBuild.properties to configure your build and launch it with ant. It's a struggle in the beginning but we got a successful build of android and iOS via Jenkins.
Note: Building multiple projects at the same time does not seem to work (e.g. for multiple build types) and results in an error message. You'll have to build sequentially.
Comment if you're interested in the further build process and I'll consider writing a blog post about this :)
EDIT END
Finished a first version of a shell script to build a Kony Project for Android and iOS for Jenkins. Its far from elegant or perferct but it might be a good start for anyone who stumbles accross this post.
First I created a settings script which contains the configuration of my build (all values-to-be-entered are shown as <value> tags):
#!/bin/bash# This script builds a Kony Project with following steps# 1. Inject settings into global.properties, build.properties, middleware properties# 2. Build Project by executing ant build.xml # 2.1 When building android apps these are already packed as .apk# 2.2 APK is signed # 3. If iOS app is build the iOS dumyWorkspace (VMAppWithKonylib) is unzipped and filled with KAR file from ant build# 3.1 the iOS app is archived # 3.2 this iOS app is signed and exported as ipa# 4. all APK and IPA files are copied to deploys folder.# Note: The Directory the Kony Project is inside must be the name of the Kony Project. otherwise it will not build. This means, that if you clone your project from repository you'll have to put it into a folder or already have it checkedin as a folder._project_name=<Kony Application Project name. e.g. KonyTemplate># Targets_target_android_phone=true_target_android_tablet=false_target_ios_phone=true_target_ios_tablet=false# Middleware Config_middleware_ipaddress=127.0.0.1_middleware_httpport=8080_middleware_httpsport=443# tools_android_home=<android sdk home>_android_zipalign=<zipalign in android build-tools>_eclipse_equinox=<eclipse equinox jar in kony studio. e.g. /Users/userxyz/Kony_Studio/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20120522-1813.jar_ant_bin_dir=<ant binary directory e.g. /usr/local/bin># you will need this parameter if you build an ios project.
