Docker Pipeline Step

[pe...@cyrusbio.com]

I might just be missing something here.. But it seems like the docker pipeline stuff is pretty busted.

docker.build does *not* seem to return a docker image, even if the build was successful. Nor does docker.image("image id") return a usable image object. I'm rewriting these two functions in a shared groovy library with sh calls rn. Am I crazy? Are other people seeing this? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Hello Peter,

There is a lot of documentation at https://go.cloudbees.com/docs/cloudbees-documentation/cje-user-guide/index.html#docker-workflow-sect-build

You can use docker.build(...).inside{...} and docker.image("my-image").inside {...}

The sample below should do what you want.

node {
  git '…' // checks out Dockerfile & Makefile
  def myEnv = docker.build 'my-environment:snapshot'
  myEnv.inside {
    sh 'make test'
  }
}
