[workflow-plugin] Exposing RunWrapper.getLog() methods for workflow build step (or alternate way to retrieve build-step logs)

[Vizionz]

Hi All -

I'm looking to find means of obtaining job (console) logs from build steps in a workflow.  Any help is greatly appreciated!

In the workflow script below, I am creating a map that contains that contains a build-step of 'TestJenkinsJob'.  After the job is completed, I check the results for a failure.  Is there way to access the job's logs?

I see that the RunWrapper does not expose any api to retrieve Run.getLogFile().

Many Thanks!

if (jobInfo.getResult() == "FAILURE")

{

// Access logfile of job - NOT EXPOSED in RunWrapper

//////////

def failLog = jobInfo.getLogFile()

println "FAIL_LOG\n$failLog"

// ... Do more work with fail log (save/parse/report/etc.)

}

}

// Setup JOB_2

//////////

buildMap["JOB_2"] = {

// ... Setup Job 2

}

// Start the parallel job

/////////

parallel buildMap

}

}

Hi,

 

I got the same problem and it can work by thinking a little bit outside the box.

You can get the jobs BUILD_NUMBER value through the getNumber() method. With that you may access the plain log via <Jenkins-server>/job/<jobname>/<buildnumber>/consoleText URL.

This definitely works!

I was hoping that there would be a way to access the logs without hitting a URL.  

Many Thanks Eric

Did you try wrapper.rawBuild.log?
