Capture/Store output of shell or python or groovy script

[Dashmeet Anand]

Hi,
I've been going through the documentation for too long. I've not been able to find a way where one could run python or shell script and assign the output to a variable. 

The variable should then be available to use in the job or pipeline config.

Is there a way to do so? If yes, I would appreciate the link to the doc.

Thanks,

Dashmeet

Hi,

Usual way to do this it like that:

------------>8 ---------------------------

- builders:
  - shell: |
      #!/bin/bash -xe
      echo "Here we somehow populate my_var_1 and my_var_2 variables:"
      my_var_1="My value 1"
      my_var_2="My value 2"
      # Note: No double quotes around values here
      # because MY_VARS.envvar is not a bash file,
      # but a Java properties file.
      echo -n > MY_VARS.envvar
      echo "MY_VAR_1=$my_var_1" >> MY_VARS.envvar
      echo "MY_VAR_2=$my_var_2" >> MY_VARS.envvar

  - inject:
      properties-file: MY_VARS.envvar'

  # Now, we have MY_VAR_1 and MY_VAR_2 in the environment:
  - shell: |
      #!/bin/bash -xe
      echo "MY_VAR_1=$MY_VAR_1"
      echo "MY_VAR_2=$MY_VAR_2"

publishers:
  # Store .envvar files - very useful for job debugging.
  - archive:
      artifacts: '*.envvar'
      allow-empty: 'true'
