Hi,

With my team we've started using docker pipeline plugin within jenkins and it seems working cool!
The plugin main page (https://plugins.jenkins.io/docker-workflow/) states it's up for adoption

* Does it mean the plugin is not maintained anymore?
* If yes, is there any maintained plugin alternative to docker pipeline to run commands inside docker container within a scripted jenkins pipeline?

Thanks a lot for your support,
Valerio

 A plugin that is up for adoption has no active maintainer.  Plugins that are up for adoption tend to be less well maintained than plugins that are not up for adoption.

Commands can be run inside a Docker container from a scripted Jenkins Pipeline by using sh steps that perform docker commands.  The Docker pipeline plugin is a good choice for simple use cases.  It is used in the Jenkins tutorials.  I think it is a reasonable choice to use.

Thanks Mark!
unfortunately my pipeline is complex enough (uses several withenv, etc...) so the use of sh steps is not feasible.
