can't add directory to the path in Jenkins pipeline

[Boris Teplitsky]

I tried to add a directory to the PATH in the Jenkins pipeline using the command:

Copy

sh 'export PATH=$PATH:/opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin'

However, I received the following error:

Copy

+ export PATH=/opt/java/openjdk/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin [Pipeline] sh + echo /opt/java/openjdk/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin /opt/java/openjdk/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin [Pipeline] sh + gcloud -v /var/jenkins_home/workspace/Boris/test3@tmp/durable-30b7cc7d/script.sh.copy: 1: gcloud: not found [Pipeline] }

Use:

withEnv(['PATH+GCLOUD=/opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin']) { your_body }

to modify the PATH env variable.
