      it is not possible to wrap all the logs from workflow with timestamps.

      if you use

              wrap([$class: 'TimestamperBuildWrapper']) {
                  // commands here
              }
      

      outside of a node block the workflow will fail with

      org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.MissingContextVariableException: Required context class hudson.FilePath is missing
      	at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.StepDescriptor.checkContextAvailability(StepDescriptor.java:126)
      

      The reason for wrapping outside of a node is that you may want to be using some steps that do not require a workspace - e.g.
      echo before and after an input.

          Only possible with a custom Workflow step. SimpleBuildWrapper can only work inside node due to its assumption that the wrapper needs a workspace and associated APIs.

          Now possible with Timestamper 1.8.1.

          timestamps {
            echo 'hello from outside the node'
            node {
              echo 'hello from inside the node'
            }
          }
