Jenkins version 2.89.3
pipeline-model-definition-plugin 1.2.7
Functions that are called from within the environment block do not have access to environment variables that are defined previously in the same environment block. Parameters work as expected and accessing the function outside of the environment block works as expected.
Example pipeline that exhibits the null environment variable function
#!/usr/bin/env groovy def returnEnvVar() { env.VARIABLE } pipeline { environment { VARIABLE = "I'm set" COPY_VARIABLE = returnEnvVar() // this gets set to null } stages { stage('Print Environment') { steps { echo "${VARIABLE}" echo "${COPY_VARIABLE}" // this prints out null } } } }
