Pipeline plugin - How do I find directories?

[Jonathan Hodgson]

Hi,

I need to find all the folders with a given name which are in my workspace (well in fact I need to find their parent folders)

A quick test with findFiles indicates it only finds files, not folders.

Hi Jonathan,

I think that utility is not available. Alternatively, it's possible to use find command (if Linux):

node {
   stage 'Create folders in workspace for showing'
   sh '''#!/bin/bash +x
         mkdir -p my_folder1/my_subfolder_1.1/my_subfolder_1.1.1
         mkdir -p my_folder2/my_subfolder_2.1/
         mkdir -p my_folder3/my_subfolder_3.1/my_subfolder_3.1.1
         '''
   stage 'List folders'
   sh '''#!/bin/bash +x
         for directory in `find $WORKSPACE -type d -name \'my_subfolder_?.?.?*\'`; do
             echo "$directory found, with parent: $(dirname $directory)"
         done'''
}

List folders stage output:

[workspace] Running shell script 
./my_folder1/my_subfolder_1.1/my_subfolder_1.1.1 found, with parent: ./my_folder1/my_subfolder_1.1 
./my_folder3/my_subfolder_3.1/my_subfolder_3.1.1 found, with parent: ./my_folder3/my_subfolder_3.1

I hope be useful.

Best regards,
Rachel

IIRC look in the pipeline-utility-steps plugin.

That's the FindFiles I already tried, which seems to find files, but not folders.

Thanks,

unfortunately I need a cross platform solution. I've not had much luck with running a shell under wimdows

Hi Jonathan,

Sorry. Firstly, I'll tried to write Groovy code for cross platform solution, but it seems there is a problem with Closure (https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-26481) and methods like eachDirRecurse, eachFileMatch, ... don't work (they only iterate one time).
