Hi, We currently have two simple pipeline jobs, one for each repository/application we are building. These jobs are triggered when someone pushes code to the repository in GitLab. So if you push code to the api repository on the develop branch, it will trigger the api job in Jenkins, clone the develop branch, run some tests and then save the artifacts. This works great. We have then a "installer" pipeline job that we will run manually. This job will be using artifacts from these two other jobs and I'm using Copy Artifact plugin to achieve this. The tricky part here is that I would like to specify in the installer job which branches to get the artifacts from. So my idea was to have a parameter (ex: API_BRANCH) for each application. I can get artifacts from the last successful build by using Copy Artifact plugin but that could be any branch, the last pushed. It is possible to filter on parameters with Copy Artifact plugin which would have worked, but the GitLab plugin does not send variables (such as branch) from GitLab as parameters, so that will not work.
So my question is if that is possible to tag/name artifact in some kind of way. So when someone is pushing code to a repository and the build is successful, it will save the artifacts and name/tag it "repo-branch" or something similar. Or if it possible to set parameters on a job from variables sent in. I could then use parameter filters with Copy Artifact to get the last successful build from the build with the parameter=develop. Another idea I had was to clone the repositories with the SCM module instead, but that doesn't work since one of the application has to be built. And it also feels a little bit ugly to use files that have not been through the whole "pipeline". I'm sorry if the description is a little bit unclear. It can be hard to explain something that you are not sure about. I have tried to search and see how other peoples have been solving this but I have not been able to find a similar "case". I could also be thinking very wrong and that there are much better ways to what I want to do.
