Shared Library: Converting a complete pipeline to a single step.

[Jochen Wiedmann]

Hi,

I have a build job with the following pipeline, which works just fine:

    @Library('isccr-addons')_

    pipeline {

        agent any

        stages {

            stage ('init') {

                steps {

                    isccrExec "${ISCCR_ADDONS_CONFIG}", "${WORKSPACE}

            }

        }

    }

The "isccrExec" is a step, that's specified in my shared library.

I expect to have quite a lot of these build jobs. So, I am thinking

about moving as much code as possible to the shared library.

I have tried to create a new step "isccrPipeline" with the following

definition:

     pipeline {

        agent any

        stages {

            stage ('init') {

                steps {

                    isccrExec "${ISCCR_ADDONS_CONFIG}", "${WORKSPACE}

            }

        }

    }

Basically, that's just the same. Now I am trying to use that step with this

new build pipeline:

    @Library('isccr-addons')_

    isccrPipeline "${ISCCR_ADDONS_CONFIG}", "${WORKSPACE}

Unfortunately, that fails with this error message:

groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: WORKSPACE for class: groovy.lang.Binding

Any ideas, what's wrong?

Thanks,

Jochen

Hi,

AFAIK, WORKSPACE is defined per agent, not for a global pipeline.

For instance, if you run a pipeline on two distincts agents, each of them will have its own WORKSPACE

Okay, is there anything that I could use as a reference to the code directory instead?

Jochen,

don't use ${WORKSPACE} from outside the pipeline, it will be available as soon as you are inside the pipeline with an agent.

That means: no need to have it as argument of your isccrPipeline
