I need the API to create view

[liweing]

can you please provide the API to create View for Pipeline view?

jenkins-php-api is an Jenkins Api client for php. We only retrieve information provided by Jenkins server.

So, if if's not in the Jenkins API, it won't be in jenkins-php-api.

Jenkins has the API, below is the python client code of Jenkins API :

def create_view(self, str_view_name, people=None):
"""
Create a view, viewExistsCheck
:param str_view_name: name of new view, str
:return: new view obj
"""

    if people:
        url = "%s/user/%s/my-views" %(self.baseurl, people)
    else:
        url = self.baseurl
    viewExistsCheck_url = "%s/viewExistsCheck?value=%s" %(url, str_view_name)
    fn_urlopen = self.get_jenkins_obj().get_opener()
    try:
        r = fn_urlopen(viewExistsCheck_url).read()
    except urllib2.HTTPError, e:
        log.debug("Error reading %s" % url)
        log.exception(e)
        raise
    """<div/>"""
    if len(r) > 7: 
        return 'A view already exists with the name "%s"' % (str_view_name)
    else:
        data = {"mode":"hudson.model.ListView", "Submit": "OK"}
        data['name']=str_view_name
        data['json'] = data.copy()
        params = urllib.urlencode(data)
        try:
            result = self.post_data('%s/createView' % url, params)
        except urllib2.HTTPError, e:
            log.debug("Error post_data %s" % url)
            log.exception(e)
        return url

this could be done by calling the execute method

https://github.com/pmsipilot/jenkins-php-api/blob/master/Jenkins.php#L627

with "createView" as first parameter and the same parameters than data of your example in the second parameter.
