Workflow: will executing node('some_machine') twice yield the same current directory

[Nick Witkowski]

Hi,

I have a question regarding workflow or now the pipeline plugin.

If I execute the following workflow job:

node('A') {

sh "pwd"

}

node('A') {

sh "pwd"

}

Is the second execution guaranteed to execute on the same node and directory? 

What I really want to do is:

parallel(build stuff in parallel)

//no errors

parallel(upload binaries to repo)

Therefore I'd like to know if executing on a node always yields the same job directory.

Thank you!

Nick

short answer no - it is not guaranteed.

- you may have more than 1 executor on that node and you may have multiple simultaneous runs of the same pipeline so they would get different workspaces.

There are also other reasons why you should not do that...

If you need the files to be there look at the `stash` command.

Ok thanks! I will look into stash.
