Working with VS Code

Validate Jenkins File

Install VS Code Plugin Jenkins Pipeline Linter Connector

Add configuration in .vscode/settings.json

"jenkins.pipeline.linter.connector.crumbUrl": "<JENKINS_URL>/crumbIssuer/api/xml?xpath=concat(//crumbRequestField
"jenkins.pipeline.linter.connector.user": "<USERNAME>",
"jenkins.pipeline.linter.connector.pass": "<PASSWORD>",
"jenkins.pipeline.linter.connector.url": "<JENKINS_URL>/pipeline-model-converter/validate",

Replace <USERNAME>, <PASSWORD> and <JENKINS_URL> with your values, for example

"jenkins.pipeline.linter.connector.crumbUrl": "http://localhost:8080/crumbIssuer/api/xml?xpath=concat(//crumbRequestField
"jenkins.pipeline.linter.connector.user": "admin",
"jenkins.pipeline.linter.connector.pass": "secret",
"jenkins.pipeline.linter.connector.url": "http://localhost:8080/pipeline-model-converter/validate",

Working with Jenkins Client (CLI)

Download Client

wget localhost:8080/jnlpJars/jenkins-cli.jar

Working with Plugins

Create aPlugin

mkdir SamplePlugin
cd SamplePlugin
mvn -U archetype:generate -Dfilter="io.jenkins.archetypes:"
mvn -U archetype:generate -Dfilter="io.jenkins.archetypes:global-configuration-plugin"

Working with Groovy Scripts

Include a common groovy script in Jenkins file

1: Create a common.groovy file with function as needed

def mycommoncode() {
}

2: In the main Jenkinfile load the file and use the function as shown below

node{ 
   def common = load “common.groovy”
   common.mycommoncode()
}

Basic example of Loading Groovy scripts

File example.groovy

def example1() {
 println 'Hello from example1' 
}
def example2() {
 println 'Hello from example2'
}

The example.groovy script defines example1 and example2 functions before ending with return this. Note that return this is definitely required and one common mistake is to forget ending the Groovy script with it.Jenkinsfile

def code node('java-agent') { 
    stage('Checkout') { checkout scm } 
    stage('Load') { code = load 'example.groovy' } 
    stage('Execute') { code.example1() }
} 

code.example2()

Processing Github JSON from Groovy

In this demo, we first show how to process JSON response from Github API in Groovy.Processing JSON from Github

String username = System.getenv('GITHUB_USERNAME') 
String password = System.getenv('GITHUB_PASSWORD') 
String GITHUB_API = 'https://api.github.com/repos' String repo = 'groovy' 
String PR_ID = '2' // Pull request ID 
String url = "${GITHUB_API}/${username}/${repo}/pulls/${PR_ID}" 

println "Querying ${url}" 

def text = url.toURL().getText(requestProperties: ['Authorization': "token ${password}"]) 
def json = new JsonSlurper().parseText(text) 

def bodyText = json.body // Check if Pull Request body has certain text if ( bodyText.find('Safari') ) {
     println 'Found Safari user' }

The equivalent bash command for retrieving JSON response from Github API is as follows:Equivalent bash command

// Groovy formatted string 
String cmd = "curl -s -H \"Authorization: token ${password}\" ${url}" 
// Example String 
example = 'curl -s -H "Authorization: token XXX" https://api.github.com/repos/tdongsi/groovy/pulls/2'

Processing Github JSON from Jenkinsfile

Continuing the demo from the last section, we now put the Groovy code into a callable function in a script called “github.groovy”. Then, in our Jenkinsfile, we proceed to load the script and use the function to process JSON response from Github API.github.groovy

import groovy.json.JsonSlurper
def getPrBody(String githubUsername, String githubToken, String repo, String id) {
   String GITHUB_API = 'https://api.github.com/repos' 
   String url = "${GITHUB_API}/${githubUsername}/${repo}/pulls/${id}" 

   println "Querying ${url}"

def text = url.toURL().getText(requestProperties: ['Authorization': "token ${githubToken}"])
def json = new JsonSlurper().parseText(text) 
def bodyText = json.body return bodyText } 
return this

Jenkinsfile

def code node('java-agent') { 
    stage('Checkout') { checkout scm }
    stage('Load') { code = load 'github.groovy' } 
    stage('Execute') {
