create DSL pipeline job with dynamic source repo and jenkins script

[Sakthivel Subramanian]

Hi,

I am trying to create Jenkins DSL pipeline job with dynamic source Repo and jenkins file to add that job.. I am trying this way...

Step 1: Using below script creating DSL job. Created job will use jenkins file which is mentioned in Step 2. Before using jekins file in the job.. i want to modify the dynamic URL which is commended in step1. But if enable it getting some groovy issue.

create_job.groovy

=================

def apps = [

   [project:"myproj",repo:"my-test-repo1"],

   [project:"testproj",repo:"my-test-repo2"],

   [project:"myproj",repo:"my-dev-repo"]

]

apps.each {

       app ->

       //mystashurl = 'mybaseurl+scm/'+app.project+'/' + app.repo + '.git'

       //sh("sed -i.bak -e 's#--GIT_URL--#${mystashurl}#' Jenkinsfile")

       pipelineJob('LIB.' + app.repo.replaceAll('-','')) {

       description('Containerized microservice lib config')

       definition {

        cps

        {

            script(readFileFromWorkspace('Jenkinsfile'))

            sandbox()

        }

    }

   }

}

Step 2:

Jenkinsfile

===========

node {

  checkout scm --GIT_URL--

  // load build functions into a subdirectory

  checkout([

    $class: 'GitSCM',

    branches: [[name: '*/master']],

    doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false,

    extensions: [[$class: 'RelativeTargetDirectory', relativeTargetDir: '.jenkins']],

    submoduleCfg: [],

    userRemoteConfigs: [[

      credentialsId: 'jenkins',

      url: 'mybaseurl/mylibrepo.git'

    ]]

  ])

  // load pipelinejob

  pom = readMavenPom file: 'pom.xml'

  pipeline = load ".jenkins/library/Jenkinsfile"

  pipeline.run(pom)

}

Is there any way to create this job or modify the jenkins file before creating DSL Job.

Thanks in advance

Hey,

As far as I see  the sh statement is not a JobDSL allowed command.

You could read the file outside of the pipelineJob closure and manipulate it:

- https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin/wiki/Job-DSL-Commands#reading-files-from-workspace

So, something like the below untested snippet might work:

...

apps.each {  app ->

  mystashurl = 'mybaseurl+scm/'+app.project+'/' + app.repo + '.git'

  def content = readFileFromWorkspace('Jenkinsfile')

    content.replaceAll('--GIT_URL--',mystashurl)

   pipelineJob('LIB.' + app.repo.replaceAll('-','')) {

     description('Containerized microservice lib config')

     definition {

        cps   {

           script(content)

           sandbox()

        }

     }

  }

}

Cheers
