Triggering job within step with a property file

[Jean-Luc Pinardon]

Dear all,

I try to set up a DSL script creating a job triggering jobs that take a property file within a build step.
The XML section would be :

  <builders>
...

    <hudson.plugins.parameterizedtrigger.TriggerBuilder plugin="parameterized-trigger@2.32">
      <configs>
        <hudson.plugins.parameterizedtrigger.BlockableBuildTriggerConfig>
          <configs>
            <hudson.plugins.parameterizedtrigger.CurrentBuildParameters/>
            <hudson.plugins.parameterizedtrigger.FileBuildParameters>
              <propertiesFile>myProduct.properties	</propertiesFile>
              <failTriggerOnMissing>true</failTriggerOnMissing>
              <useMatrixChild>false</useMatrixChild>
              <onlyExactRuns>false</onlyExactRuns>
            </hudson.plugins.parameterizedtrigger.FileBuildParameters>
          </configs>
          <projects>jobA,jobB,jobC</projects>
          <condition>ALWAYS</condition>
          <triggerWithNoParameters>false</triggerWithNoParameters>

...etc...

  </builders>

I cannot find a simple way to achieve that, or I cannot understand why the following code is node valid :
    steps {
      triggerBuilder{
        configs {
	  blockableBuildTriggerConfig {
	    projects('jobA','jobB','jobC')

              block{
		buildStepFailureThreshold('FAILED')
		unstableThreshold('UNSTABLE')
		failureThreshold('FAILED')
	      }
	      configs {
		currentBuildParameters()
		fileBuildParameters {
		  propertiesFile(propFilePath)
		  failTriggerOnMissing(true)
		  onlyExactRuns(false)
		  useMatrixChild(false)
		}
	      }

                   }

               }

          ... etc...

The seed job using this script fails with :

ERROR: (stopStart.groovy, line 25) the following options are required and must be specified: encoding, combinationFilter
Finished: FAILURE

I neither undesrtand why I should I encoding (not available from the WEB UI) and combinationFilter (as matrix is out of scope here)... nor I can imagine how to code these empty param.
For example, encoding() also fails though the DSL Reference says "If not specified, default encoding of the platform is used."


Thanks for your help.

It's because the plugin uses @DataBoundConstructor to init the FileBuildParameters class. See https://github.com/jenkinsci/parameterized-trigger-plugin/blob/7830161d307eb44b2f0fd91c1bcc92888e6743bb/src/main/java/hudson/plugins/parameterizedtrigger/FileBuildParameters.java#L55

All constructor arguments are required. The fix would be for the plugin to switch to @DataBoundSetter for optional params. But you should be able to work around it for now by setting the other params to an empty string.

Resolved, 
Thanks a lot !!!
I really wonder why I did not thought to such a simple solution... so "sorry for the noise".

Best Regards
