Description for a pipeline run is not compatible and cannot be disabled

    • Blue Ocean 1.4 - beta 1

      jamesdumay added recently description display to blue ocean in JENKINS-41769. Unfortunately it is not rendering build description property in consistent manner. The build property is multi-line and supports HTML content, while its blue ocean presentation expects single-line and plain text.

      I was already using this property, filling it with html tables, links and images, and now at blue ocean it presents itself as HTML source.

      Possible solutions:

      • allow to disable display of description in blue ocean
      • make the blue ocean description rendered in same manner as it is in other parts of Jenkins
      • make the blue ocean description relay on other property, i.e. Summary, Brief, Note

          HTML in the build description is pretty commonly used. The GitHub PR Builder plugin uses it for linking back to PRs for example. We've used it in our system for many other things like linking to Gerrit patches, or to JIRA tickets tracking analysis of job failures.

          quas bkorren very interesting. 

           

          So - I think links and the link should be reasonable in markup - but as for other elements - that won't really work without a very odd looking sandbox (or iframe), I would like to see a screen cap of a display description with tables and images though - if you have one handy you can share?
