I have a project that checks out into $WORKSPACE/projectname, generates reports to $WORKSPACE/reports/coverage.xml, and the coverage reports contain "projectname/path.py" in them.

The problem is, there is no way that I see with jenkins plugin to get it to actually run from that top level directory - it insists on using the first checkout path as the project base.

I've tried all sorts of variants of overriding project base dir in the properties/etc. but it doesn't seem to work.

Is there any way to force/override what jenkins passes to sonar runner as the project base dir?
