I'm trying to get up to speed with the new Jenkins Declarative Pipelines, and I'm using our current workflow as an example.
We could potentially do multiple builds, depending on the stream that the developers are working on at the time, and would then deploy different builds to different environments, for example, a hotfix for live would be in testing, while the new release may be in the dev environment.
This worked well with older version of Jenkins + the promote plugin, because we could simply promote a specific build to a deploy job for a particular environment. Did some googling, and doesn't look like there is a promote equivalent for the new Jenkins Pipelines.
This means we are back to using a "build" job and a "deploy" job. Now, I'm trying to wrap my head around the new declarative pipelines that's being pushed quite hard, and I've head a dead-end with artifacts.
Since build & deploy are now separate jobs, we would have to copy the artifacts from one job to the other. I've found numerous answers on how to use the CopyArtifact class, but I have no idea how to access this using the new declarative pipelines.
Here is my "Build" job:
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('Build') {
steps {
sh 'echo 123 > testing.txt'
}
}
stage('Archive') {
steps {
milestone 10
archive 'testing.txt'
}
}
}
}
And my "Deploy" pipeline:
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('Fetch Artifact') {
step ([$class: 'CopyArtifact', projectName: 'Build', filter: 'testing.txt'])
}
stage('Deploy') {
steps {
sh './deploy testing.txt'
}
}
}
}
Running that fails, since Jenkins Declarative pipelines expect "steps" to be a block.
I've tried:
steps {
$class: 'CopyArtifact', projectName: 'Build', filter: 'testing.txt'
}
But I'm getting "unexpected token"
EDIT:
Thanks to Christopher, I've made some progress, but with the following errors:
