Jenkins 2.235.5
xunit-plugin 2.3.9
Cannot get Jenkins environment variables from Custom stylesheets when using Custom tool configuration
Since XLST 3.0 there are two functions to get environment variables within a stylesheet
(available-environment-variables and environment-variable)
I can access to the regular system environment variables but no the environment variables set by Jenkins such as JENKINS_URL, JOB_URL, BUILD_NUMBER, ....
I've tested with Freestyle jobs and pipeline jobs in Windows and Linux with the same results.
An example with pipeline:
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('Build') {
steps {
xunit([Custom(customXSL: 'transform.xslt', deleteOutputFiles: false, failIfNotNew: false, pattern: 'aresult.xml', skipNoTestFiles: false, stopProcessingIfError: false)])
}
}
}
}
Check the xml file generated in generatedJUnitFiles/ folder. It doesn't list the Jenkins environment variables
The jenkins build variable are not enviroment variable. If so all the JVM will share the same variable but different value for each job. Some plugin like Shell o BachFile can creates a new environment adding those build variables just because they execute an external process.
In this case like in other plugins is not possible, they are executed inside the agent/master JVM node. What usually is done is a token replace using variables injected by jenkins or other plugins in the plugin configurations (for example in Custom XML path -> $JENKINS_ROOT/..../transform.xslt)
