Jenkins - can parsedVersion property be used in pipeline script?

Question

I have a Jenkins Maven project job thats builds a SNAPSHOT release and increments the POM version. Inside the Goals and options field I have:

clean install build-helper:parse-version versions:set -DnewVersion=${parsedVersion.majorVersion}.${parsedVersion.minorVersion}.${parsedVersion.nextIncrementalVersion}-SNAPSHOT versions:commit

This works as expected with no problems. But a separate Jenkins pipeline job fails when I attempt to esentially do the same thing using:

sh mvn clean install build-helper:parse-version versions:set -DnewVersion=${parsedVersion.majorVersion}.${parsedVersion.minorVersion}.${parsedVersion.nextIncrementalVersion}-SNAPSHOT versions:commit

The console output shows:

groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: parsedVersion for class: WorkflowScript at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ScriptBytecodeAdapter.unwrap(ScriptBytecodeAdapter.java:53) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ScriptBytecodeAdapter.getProperty(ScriptBytecodeAdapter.java:458) at org.kohsuke.groovy.sandbox.impl.Checker$6.call(Checker.java:290) at org.kohsuke.groovy.sandbox.GroovyInterceptor.onGetProperty(GroovyInterceptor.java:68) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.scriptsecurity.sandbox.groovy.SandboxInterceptor.onGetProperty(SandboxInterceptor.java:326) at org.kohsuke.groovy.sandbox.impl.Checker$6.call(Checker.java:288) at org.kohsuke.groovy.sandbox.impl.Checker.checkedGetProperty(Checker.java:292) at org.kohsuke.groovy.sandbox.impl.Checker.checkedGetProperty(Checker.java:268) at org.kohsuke.groovy.sandbox.impl.Checker.checkedGetProperty(Checker.java:268) at org.kohsuke.groovy.sandbox.impl.Checker.checkedGetProperty(Checker.java:268) at org.kohsuke.groovy.sandbox.impl.Checker.checkedGetProperty(Checker.java:268) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.sandbox.SandboxInvoker.getProperty(SandboxInvoker.java:29) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.impl.PropertyAccessBlock.rawGet(PropertyAccessBlock.java:20) at WorkflowScript.run(WorkflowScript:33) at cps.transform(Native Method) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.impl.PropertyishBlock$ContinuationImpl.get(PropertyishBlock.java:74) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.LValueBlock$GetAdapter.receive(LValueBlock.java:30) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.impl.PropertyishBlock$ContinuationImpl.fixName(PropertyishBlock.java:66) at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor974.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.impl.ContinuationPtr$ContinuationImpl.receive(ContinuationPtr.java:72) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.impl.ConstantBlock.eval(ConstantBlock.java:21) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.Next.step(Next.java:83) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.Continuable$1.call(Continuable.java:174) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.Continuable$1.call(Continuable.java:163) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.GroovyCategorySupport$ThreadCategoryInfo.use(GroovyCategorySupport.java:122) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.GroovyCategorySupport.use(GroovyCategorySupport.java:261) at com.cloudbees.groovy.cps.Continuable.run0(Continuable.java:163) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.SandboxContinuable.access$101(SandboxContinuable.java:34) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.SandboxContinuable.lambda$run0$0(SandboxContinuable.java:59) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.scriptsecurity.sandbox.groovy.GroovySandbox.runInSandbox(GroovySandbox.java:108) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.SandboxContinuable.run0(SandboxContinuable.java:58) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsThread.runNextChunk(CpsThread.java:174) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsThreadGroup.run(CpsThreadGroup.java:332) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsThreadGroup.access$200(CpsThreadGroup.java:83) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsThreadGroup$2.call(CpsThreadGroup.java:244) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsThreadGroup$2.call(CpsThreadGroup.java:232) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsVmExecutorService$2.call(CpsVmExecutorService.java:64) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:266) at hudson.remoting.SingleLaneExecutorService$1.run(SingleLaneExecutorService.java:112) at jenkins.util.ContextResettingExecutorService$1.run(ContextResettingExecutorService.java:28) at java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:511) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:266) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1149) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:624) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:748)

Am I missing something?

Answer 1

I couldn't get metalisticpain's solution to work but while troubleshooting I came across a GitHub groovy script with this approach:

sh '/usr/local/maven/bin/mvn build-helper:parse-version versions:set -DnewVersion=\\\${parsedVersion.majorVersion}.\\\${parsedVersion.minorVersion}.\\\${parsedVersion.nextIncrementalVersion}-SNAPSHOT versions:commit '

Works perfectly now.

As alluded to by khmarbaise, you need to just enclose in single quotes.

Specifically:

sh('mvn clean install build-helper:parse-version versions:set -DnewVersion=${parsedVersion.majorVersion}.${parsedVersion.minorVersion}.${parsedVersion.nextIncrementalVersion}-SNAPSHOT versions:commit')

This will pass through without attempting to evaluate the ${var} as a Jenkins/Groovy variable. If you use double quotes, you will encounter the same error as this is a GString in groovy. http://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/api/groovy/lang/GString.html

A different tact, First read the pom into memory and extract the necessary data, then set it via mvn versions:set

def pom = readMavenPom file: 'pom.xml'
String major = pom.parsedVersion.majorVersion
String minor = pom.parsedVersion.majorVersion
String nextIncremental = pom.parsedVersion.majorVersion
sh("clean install build-helper:parse-version versions:set -DnewVersion=${major}.${minor}.${nextIncremental}-SNAPSHOT versions:commit")
