Have you looked at the Environment Script Plugin? I use it to generate parameters that I need to use later in my builds.
https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Environment+Script+Plugin From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Victoria Kozel Sent: Monday, June 12, 2017 1:49 PM To: Jenkins Users Subject: Injecting environment variables - sourcing shell script Hello, I need to use a certain variable in my Shell Build Step that is figured in a shell script stored on the node. When I "source" this script in the same step in which I need the variable, it works. However sourcing it in the EnvInject step under Build Environment phase does not seem to transfer the variable to the Build Step. Here's how the job is configured: X . Inject environment variables to the build process Script Content: source /home/jenkins/setInventoryVar.sh I can see at this point the output of the script in the console, yet the Build Step does not inherit a variable set in Inject Env. Suggestions are greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
