have the same issue as delphym.

It's possible to set conditional trigger on environmental variable?

Just can't figure out where better to ask this question:

How can I conditionally set the triggers or options parameters? 

The same logic as suggested for environment variables section can be applied inside options section, e,g. to some values of logRotator() function like this:
numToKeepStr: "${params.IS_IT_NIGHTLY ? '4' : '2'}"

But how to make it conditional on entire call of the logRotator() function or in triggers section when I would like to call poolSCM() method with different intervals for CI and NIGHTLY builds (or not to call it at all and use just cron() or whatever ?

I'm looking for something like this:

triggers {
  if (params.IS_IT_NIGHTLY==true) {
      pollSCM('''# Once a day, between 12:00AM and 1:59AM
H H(0-1) * * *  ''')
  } else {
      pollSCM('''# every five minutes
H/5 * * * *  ''')
  }
}

If I do that, then I'll get this error:

WorkflowScript: 25: Expected a trigger @ line 25, column 5.
       if (params.IS_IT_NIGHTLY==true) {
       ^
1 error

The whole point of having parameterized Jenkins pipeline jobs

is that most of our the Jenkinsfiles for NIGHTLY and CI builds looks almost identical, except the:

• scheduler triggers
• SVN checkout (which differs in checkout strategy, depth of checkout, and other minor details)
• and of course then a true parametrized split weather to perform a limited or fuld build process with relevant tests and deployment locations.

I can't see as it is now implemented how can I achieve this.

Thanks,

Any update on its status? I mean as suggested  by abayer it is working as of Jenkins v. 2.150.3, so it looks like it has been released.

Hi Andrew, sorry I missed your previous post, I did it indeed similar to your proposal, and it works thx!

koen_bruyninckx - are you still having problems?

koen_bruyninckx - looks to me like you're trying to call the changeRequest when condition inside of environment - that won't work. Try something like "${env.CHANGE_ID != null ? env.CHANGE_TARGET : env.BRANCH_NAME}"

abayer I've picked up your suggestion but to my surprise the following does not seem to be working, i.e. the BRANCH_NAME which is an environment var that I would like to assign to TARGET in case of a CI build, always results to null:

environment {
  TARGET = "${changeRequest() ? CHANGE_TARGET : BRANCH_NAME}"
}

I noticed that the call to changeRequest() does not seem to be working in this condition, but still always resolves to true.

Would be awesome if resolved.

You can do something like:

CC = "${params.some_bool_parameter ? '1' : ''}"

Which will set CC to 1 if some_bool_parameter is true, and will set it to '' otherwise. If that's not sufficient and you need to be able to have the variable be unset completely, you may need to use Scripted Pipeline instead.
