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.

[JENKINS-51170] Workflowstep-specific environment variables
Description |
Original:
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. Cc [~svanoort], [~abayer] Previous discussion: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/jenkinsci-dev/VBYvIv3S_r4 |

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

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

I suggested the general approach FTR. EnvironmentExpander.getEffectiveEnvironment could get a new overload (deprecating the original), to be called from DefaultStepContext, which would take a StepContext argument and call the extension point.
