Description

It would be nice to have support for Contexts; either Go 1.7's context package or the one from previous versions of Go in x/net/context.

This would allow cancelling Jenkins requests as well as setting up timeouts in specific parts of a chain of requests.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study how Go's context package works and how it can be integrated into the existing Jenkins API client methods to support cancellation and timeouts.
