NodeProperty extension behaves differently with Freestyle than Pipeline job

[Anders Hammar]

Hi,

I'm trying to build an extension that would automatically remove/delete the workspace when leaving a node. It seems possible to do this through a NodeProperty extension where I create an Environment object that would handle this.

However, trying this I see different behavior in e.g. a Freestyle build than in a pipeline build. In the Freestyle build it works, but in the pipeline build the setUp() method is not called. Is this difference expected?

The extension can be found at [1].

Node and workspace handling differs quite a lot between freestyle and pipeline jobs. In a single pipeline you can create many nodes (node block) and even works spaces (ws blocks).

So this is  expected...

Ok, thanks for clarifying.
