email-ext plugin + credentials plugin?

[Guy Matz]

Hello!  I'm trying to pass some credentials (via the credentials plugin) to a pre-send script within the email-ext plugin . . .  however, the credentials are not showing up as environment vars . . .  anyone know how if these two plugins can work together?

Thanks a lot!

Guy

Email-ext doesn't have any direct support for the credentials plugin. I am looking at adding it for the SMTP credentials, but not specifically for what you are describing.

Thanks for the reply!  Any workarounds you can recommend?

How are you specifying the credentials? I am not completely familiar with the credentials plugin, so I don't know how it makes things available to a job. If it does it via the environment, then they should be available in the pre-send script. Can you post your pre-send script and job config?

Thanks, yes the credentials are supposed to be in the environment!  My presend script is creating a Jira ticket via REST API, so I have my jira user's username & password in credentials, and am defining them as JIRA_USERNAME & JIRA_PASSWORD, respectively.  I am then referencing them in the pre-send like so:

def createJiraTicket(String changelog) {

  jiraProject = 'Change Management System'

  jiraProjectCode = 'CMS'

  jiraUser = System.env['JIRA_USERNAME']

  jiraPassword = System.env['JIRA_PASSWORD']

  logger.println("Accessing Jira with user ${jiraUser}")  // jiraUser shows up as null

  //  This loop has been added for debugging.  Many other ENV vars are logged here,

  //  but not JIRA_USERNAME & JIRA_PASSWORD

  System.env.sort().each {

    logger.println(it)

  }

  .

  .

  .

I *am* able to use $JIRA_USERNAME & $JIRA_PASSWORD in a build step . . .

Any thoughts here would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks a lot,

Guy

Can you try using build.buildVariables['JIRA_USERNAME']? Also, there are a couple of JIRA plugins that might do what you want.

Hmm . . .  no, the build.buildVariables['JIRA_USERNAME'] showed up as null . . .  any other thoughts?

Thanks again,

Guy

P.S. - Thanks for the pointer to the Jira plugin.  That might work for another problem I have!

Can you print out what is in build.buildVariables? The other thing to try would be build.getEnvironment(listener)['JIRA_USERNAME']

getEnvironment(listener) worked!!

Regarding buildVariables, this code:

logger.println("Build Variables Start: ")

  build.each {

    logger.println(it)

  }  

  logger.println("Build Variables End")

Produced:

Build Variables Start: 
deploy-sidecar-gold-gmatz-test #20
Build Variables End

Thanks again!!
