While trying to assign variables into some JSON file readed in a Pipeline Project.
 Using this JSON file file.json:
[
{
"id":"1",
"buildNumber":"",
"lock":"false",
"tag":"dbaix",
"configurationFile":"path/someFile.properties"
},
{
"id":"2",
"buildNumber":"",
"lock":"true",
"tag":"dbaix",
"configurationFile":"path/someFile.properties"
},
{
"id":"3",
"buildNumber":"2222222",
"lock":"true",
"tag":"dbaix",
"configurationFile":"path/someFile.properties"
}
]
You do:
jsonDictionary = readJSON file: "file.json"
jsonEnvDefinition = jsonDictionary.get(0);
buildNumberVar = "xx"
jsonEnvDefinition['buildNumber'] = "${buildNumberVar}"
echo "${jsonDictionary }"
I am getting in the output:
[[id:1, buildNumber:[bytes:[120, 120], strings:[, ], valueCount:1, values:[xx]], lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties], [id:2, buildNumber:, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties], [id:3, buildNumber:2222222, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties]]
Which doesn't make sense. Instead if I hard coded the value
jsonDictionary = readJSON file: "file.json"
jsonEnvDefinition = jsonDictionary.get(0);
jsonEnvDefinition['buildNumber'] = "xx"
echo "${jsonDictionary }"
I will get in the output:
[[id:1, buildNumber:xx, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties], [id:2, buildNumber:, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties], [id:3, buildNumber:2222222, lock:true, tag:dbaix, configurationFile:path/someFile.properties]]
Which make sense. I am expecting "xx" in buildNumber, but when using variables it is getting written some more complex string which I don't know how that value it is been created.
