Regular expression for conditional build step?

[David Aldrich]

Hi

 

I am using the multi-branch plugin to run a job on multiple branches and the trunk.  I want to add a conditional build step that is only executed on the trunk.  So I’m thinking of adding a conditional build step that uses a regular expression to check whether $WORKSPACE contains ‘trunk’.  I guess the regular expression would be something like:

 

Expression: ${ENV,var="WORKSPACE"}

Label: trunk

 

But that isn’t right. What would I specify please?

 

Best regards

 

David

Have tried a bit harder.

 

WORKSPACE is:

 

C:\Jenkins\workspace\VS2010_all_branches_and_trunk\trunk

 

Jenkins replies:

 

Regular expression run condition: Expression=[.*\\trunk.*], Label=[${ENV,VAR=WORKSPACE}]

Run condition [Regular expression match] preventing perform for step [Execute Windows batch command]

 

I want the step to execute. What am I doing wrong?

 

Best regards

 

David

Hi

 

I’m still struggling with this. My workspace is:

 

C:\Jenkins\workspace\VS2010_all_branches_and_trunk\trunk

 

My condition for a build step is:

 

Expression: .*trunk.*

Label: ${ENV,VAR=WORKSPACE}

 

So the build step should execute but it doesn’t:

 

C:\Jenkins\workspace\VS2010_all_branches_and_trunk\trunk\MSVC\Zodiac2010_Release>exit 0

Regular expression run condition: Expression=[.*trunk.*], Label=[${ENV,VAR=WORKSPACE}]

Run condition [Regular expression match] preventing perform for step [Execute Windows batch command]

 

Why is this?  Am I referencing the WORKSPACE variable incorrectly?

My jobs have something like ${ENV,var="GDA_squish_job_to_trigger"}/

Note var is in lower case, and the quote surrounding the variable name

Hi Matthew

 

Thanks very much. I didn’t notice that I was using the wrong case.

 

${ENV,var="WORKSPACE"}

 

works.

 

Best regards
