Workflowstep-specific environment variables

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    • workflow-step-api 2.19, workflow-support 3.2, workflow-cps 2.63

    Description

      For monitoring purposes it can be useful to be able to have access to the current FlowNode/Step via environment variables.

      This could be done by only injecting the current FlowNode id as environment variable.

      A more flexible approach would be a new extension point, similar to an EnvironmentContributor, but called with the current StepContext.

       

      If this idea gets a general go-ahead I will present a prototype.

          Add your IDE files to .gitignore.

          I normally try top keep stuff specific to my setup in the system wide gitignore.

          (For the time being I put it in .git/info/exclude).

          The problem was mostly my confusion about the plugin asking me to run "git status -s" which did not show any changes.

          My Jenkins server is showing a warning for the plugins listed above: "Warning: the new version of this plugin claims to use a different settings format than the installed version. Jobs using this plugin may need to be reconfigured, and/or you may not be able to cleanly revert to the prior version without manually restoring old settings. Consult the plugin release notes for details."

          I don't see any information in the bug that indicates what changes need to be made in the pipeline to be compatible with this update.

          shubbard Probably you are seeing that error because of Pipeline Supporting APIs 3.2 (my guess is that you are running 2.x). See the wiki page for that plugin for details about that compatibility issue. If you are running Pipeline Supporting APIs 3.x already, then please list the versions of those plugins you have installed.
