I know how to use the "Standard Mode" thresholds when publishing a performance report via jenkins pipelines:
perfReport errorFailedThreshold: 5, errorUnstableThreshold: 1, sourceDataFiles: 'result.jtl'
But how can I use these "Expert Mode" constraints like "Absolute Contraint"? (see screenshot)
The easiest way to figure out how to use the perfReport step (and any other step' in a pipeline script is to use the Pipeline Snippet Generator that will create the pipeline code according to your UI configuration.
This feature is crucial as the official documentation of the step lacks some advance configuration options.
To use the snippet generator just click on the Pipeline Syntax link on the left side menu of your Pipeline Job (it wont be available in freestyle jobs), You can also navigate to that page using the following URL: <Your_Project_URL>/pipeline-syntax/
Once in the page select the perfReport step, the UI configuration of the plugin will be presented, configure it how you want and click the Generate button at the button of the page, that will give you the relevant pipeline code for execution the step with the relevant parameters you have configured.
Here are some examples for configuration:
Expert Mode with Absolute Constraint
perfReport constraints: [absolute(escalationLevel: 'INFORMATION', meteredValue: 'AVERAGE', operator: 'NOT_GREATER', relatedPerfReport: 'result.xml', success: false, value: 0)],
filterRegex: '', modeEvaluation: true, showTrendGraphs: true, sourceDataFiles: ''
Expert Mode with Relative Constraint
perfReport constraints: [relative(escalationLevel: 'INFORMATION', meteredValue: 'AVERAGE', operator: 'NOT_GREATER', previousResultsBlock: previous(value: 'BASELINE'), relatedPerfReport: 'results.xml', success: false, tolerance: 0.0)],
filterRegex: '', modeEvaluation: true, showTrendGraphs: true, sourceDataFiles: ''

I have an issue with the writing pipelines with a hidden parameter.
I installed Hidden Parameter Plugin to my Jenkins and I would like to hide some parameters.
Actually I understand how to use StringParameterDefinition, but I can not hide this parameter
[$class: 'StringParameterDefinition', defaultValue: 'N/A', description: 'some text', name: 'variable', hidden: true]
After installation Hidden Parameter Plugin I can see "Hidden Parameter" during adding a parameter, but I have the groovy file, which is downloaded on each build, that's why I would like to write it in the groovy pipe.
Could you please help me with syntax for hidden parameter?
I am creating a pipeline using the declarative pipeline flavour, with clockwork steps enclosed within a klockwork wrapper where I can define the klocwork setup :
klocworkWrapper(installConfig: 'My Klocwork', ltoken: "${HOME}/.klocwork/ltoken", serverConfig: 'Klocwork#XYZ', serverProject: 'S3cr3TPr0j3ct') {
klocworkBuildSpecGeneration([additionalOpts: '', buildCommand: 'make', ignoreErrors: true, output: 'kwinject.out', tool: 'kwinject'])
klocworkIntegrationStep1([additionalOpts: '', buildSpec: 'kwinject.out', disableKwdeploy: false, ignoreCompileErrors: true, importConfig: '', incrementalAnalysis: false, tablesDir: 'kwtables'])
klocworkIntegrationStep2([additionalOpts: '', buildName: "${JOB_BASE_NAME}_${BUILD_NUMBER}", tablesDir: 'kwtables'])
}
Ok, analysis is launched, and I can see the results on the Klocwork server web interface.
But I cannot find a way to retrieve resulting diagrams on the Jenkins web interface, even when using the pipeline script generator.
Unless I am totally wrong, I think that I should use klocworkQualityGateway, but the generated script snippet is not correct.
Once copied within the wrapper, it fails lacking for some enableXYGateway or gatewayXYConfig property.
For example this line :
klocworkQualityGateway([enableCiGateway: false, enableServerGateway: true, gatewayServerConfigs: [[conditionName: 'Issues', jobResult: 'failure', query: 'state:+Status,Fix', threshold: '1']]])
fails with an error message :
WorkflowScript: 92: Missing required parameter: "gatewayCiConfig" # line 92, column 1.
klocworkQualityGateway([enableCiGateway: false, enableServerGateway: true, gatewayServerConfigs: [[conditionName: 'Issues', jobResult: 'failure', query: 'state:+Status,Fix', threshold: '1']]])
I really cannot find a way to make it work, and I guess I can take a wrong turn... so any help would be appreciate.
Thanks for your help and best regards

Well, after a fruitful discussion with the plugin maintainer (M. Baron) it appears that there is currently no simple and direct solution to display Klocwork result on a pipeline job page.
He said :
This step doesn't have a native pipeline interface and a few people
have tried, but haven't had much success with workarounds to use this
in a pipeline.
The simplest thing to do seems to trigger a freestyle job that will only do that.
As far as I have understood, a new plugin version with full pipeline support will replace the current one.
So, I think this discussion can be closed.
Allure commandline 2.6.0;
Jenkins ver. 2.89.3;
I am using the following script (no any other post-build settings in job settings):
stage('Generate reports') {
allure([includeProperties: false,
reportBuildPolicy: 'ALWAYS',
results : [[path: allureResultsPath]]])
archive 'catalina.log'
}
This gives me the report, but also the following archive, attached to each run:
Is it required for Trend, history or something?
I'd like to turn it off as it is not used by me and only spends the disk's space.
Is it possible to turn it off using the pipeline script?
Okay, I looked at the plugin's code and as far as I can see, there is no way to turn off archiving the report. Because it is called right after the report is generated, without any conditions (see saveAllureArtifact at 306 and it's call at 299):
https://github.com/jenkinsci/allure-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/ru/yandex/qatools/allure/jenkins/AllureReportPublisher.java#L299
In allure plugin you can add attribute disabled
disabled (optional)
Type: boolean
So add disabled: true to your configuration:
allure(disabled: true, ...
We are building several pipeline tasks in Jenkins to make life easier on some deploy jobs. One of them requires manual input of several parameters. For that we are using an input step like this:
def userInput = input ( message : 'Select deployment versiĆ³n and input deployment code:',
parameters: [[$class: 'TextParameterDefinition', defaultValue: '', description: 'Clarive code', name: 'code']] )
Those parameters are mandatory. We didn't find in the documentation any property that will make the TextParameterDefinition mandatory. For now we are re running the step until all parameters are not null, but the solution is a bit confusing for the user.
Is there another way to handle mandatory parameters that avoids running the same step on a loop?
There was a plugin that did that but is no longer maintained.
There's an open bug to support it.
In the meantime what you can do is check if your parameter is present and if not throw an error like:
if (params.SomeParam == null) {
error("Build failed because of this and that..")
}
I'm trying to switch from using a freestyle Jenkins build to a pipeline project.
I like many things about it, but I wish that I could use the multibranch pipeline as that matches our company a bit better, but at present that is a not an option.
What we do currently is create a new build job with the name of <project name> - <environment>.
So I need to keep that going for now. I have a basic outline of a script that I can either copy and paste into the box or even better is to use the jenkins file from scm.
I like this one the most and that is what I'm currently using on my local Jenkins.
If I hard code the solution file and the environment I want in my script in scm it builds fine.
I don't like that option because that means I'd have to have lots of scripts with similar names just changing the branch. If I add build parameters with the solution name and environment I can easily make the script handle those as well, however what I don't like is that when I click build button it confirms that those are the parameters I want to use.
So is there a way that I can hardcode/get a plugin that lets me add those parameters as constants or environment variables or whatever so it is just part of the job?
EDIT
As an update to show what I tried yesterday and got to work for our needs is this. First was that I installed multibranch defaults plugin and followed the steps outline on their github page. With that installed and configured I added a new multibranch project, pointed it to my git repository. It now found 2 branches (as expected) and used the default config file. So far this seems like it will work for about 90% of our cases. The only problem I can see is if some people had custom steps in their existing freestyle project. But for now those can always just stay a freestyle project.
If I understand you correctly what you're looking for is a way to supply default parameters to your build.
In one of my builds I do something like that:
stage ('Setup') {
try {
timeout(time: 1, unit: 'MINUTES') {
userInput = input message: 'Configure build parameters:', ok: '', parameters: [
[$class: 'hudson.model.ChoiceParameterDefinition', choices: 'staging\nproduction\nfree', description: 'Choose build flavor', name: 'BUILD_FLAVOR'],
[$class: 'hudson.model.ChoiceParameterDefinition', choices: 'Debug\nRelease', description: 'Choose build type', name: 'BUILD_TYPE'],
[$class: 'hudson.model.ChoiceParameterDefinition', choices: 'NONE\ndevelop\nmaster\nrelease/core_0.5.0\nrelease/core_0.1.8.1\nrelease/core_0.1.9', description: 'Product core branch', name: 'CORE_BRANCH'],
[$class: 'hudson.model.ChoiceParameterDefinition', choices: '4.1.12\n4.1.11\n4.1.10\n4.1.9\n4.1.8\n4.1.4\n3.5.5\n3.1.8\ncore\nOldVersion', description: 'Version Name', name: 'VERSION_NAME'],
[$class: 'hudson.model.ChoiceParameterDefinition', choices: 'origin/develop\norigin/hotfix/4.1.11\norigin/release/4.1.8\norigin/hotfix/4.1.7\norigin/hotfix/4.1.9\norigin/hotfix/4.1.10\norigin/release/4.1.6\norigin/release/4.1.5\norigin/hotfix/3.5.5', description: 'Git branch', name: 'GIT_BRANCH'],
[$class: 'BooleanParameterDefinition', defaultValue: false, description: 'Enable Gradle debug?', name: 'DEBUG']
] // According to Jenkins Bug: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-26143
}
} catch (err) {
userInput = [BUILD_FLAVOR: 'staging', BUILD_TYPE: 'Debug', CORE_BRANCH: 'NONE', VERSION_NAME: '4.1.12', GIT_BRANCH: 'origin/develop'] // if an error is caught set these values
}
}
Explanation:
I'm using the Try/Catch method to handle exceptions and then within the "try" section, I configured the question and possible answers to select from that I want to display to the user which starts the build.
Then, in the "catch" section I've put the default values I want to set in each one of the variables incase an exception is caught, which means that 1 minute has passed without selecting the relevant items.
