Sed command not working in Jenkins Pipeline - jenkins

I have a file 'README.txt' which contains the line -
"version": "1.0.0-alpha-test.7"
Using a Jenkins Pipeline, I want to replace this line with
"version": "1.0.0-alpha-test.{BUILD_NUMBER}"
The following sed command works when I try it on a linux cluster
sed -i -E "s#(\"version\"[ ]*:[ ]*\".+alpha-test\.)[0-9]+\"#\1${BUILD_NUMBER}#g" README.txt
The same command does not work using a Jenkins Pipeline.
Tried with the following query but it doesn't work -
sh """
sed -i -E "s|([\"]version[\"][ ]*:[ ]*[\"].+alpha-test\\.)[0-9]+\"|\1${BUILD_NUMBER}|g" README.txt
cat README.txt
"""
/home/jenkins/workspace/test/test-pipeline#tmp/durable-eb774fcf/script.sh:
3:
/home/jenkins/workspace/test/test-pipeline#tmp/durable-eb774fcf/script.sh:
Syntax error: ")" unexpected

Best to use perl command instead...
script{
old_version = (sh (returnStdout: true, script:'''old_version=`cat version.cfg |grep VERSION=|cut -d "=" -f2`
echo $old_version''')).toString().trim()
sh """
if [ "$old_version" != $new_version ]; then
perl -pi -e "s,$old_version,$new_version,g" version.cfg

How do you properly escape a sed command in a Jenkinsfile

I can run this command from the command line to get the value for the latest release in a GitHub repo:
curl --silent "https://api.github.com/repos/MyOrg/MyRepo/releases/latest"|grep "tag_name"|sed -E 's/."([^"]+)"./\1/'
I'd like to use this in a Jenkinsfile, but I can't seem to properly escape the special characters.
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('Test') {
steps {
sh """
latest=`curl --silent \\\"https://api.github.com/repos/MyOrg/MyRepo/releases/latest\\\"|
grep \\\"tag_name\\\"|
sed -E \\\'s/.*\\\"([^\\\"]+)\\\".*/\1/\\\'`
""".stripIndent()
}
}
}
}
When run in a pipeline, I get the following error:
[Pipeline] sh
curl --silent "https://api.github.com/repos/MyOrg/MyRepo/releases/latest"
grep "tag_name"
sed -E 's/.*"
sed: -e expression #1, char 1: unknown command: `''
instead of wrapping the large expression in backticks, try instead wrapping it in
$(command_1 | command_2 | command_3)
Also add, at the start of the shell command:
set -x;
and you'll get debug output in the console output (possibly). You should then see how your script is being evaluated.

No such file found in jenkis pipeline

Here is my groovy file
timestamps{
node('cf_slave'){
checkout scm
stage('Read the file') {
def PWD = pwd()
withEnv(["prj_option=${params.project}"]) {
def response =sh(returnStdout: true, script: 'sh \'jenkins/security/get_values.sh\'')
}
}
This is my get_values.sh file
echo "The project option is:" $prj_option
prj_name=$(echo "$prj_option" | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')
file_name="va_input_file_$prj_name.txt"
echo "The project option is:" $file_name
ls -la
chmod 775 jenkins/security/$file_name
ls -la
get_input_values() {
file=$1
IFS=''
while read line
do
if [ `echo ${line} | grep -E -c -w "NAME_SPACE" ` -gt 0 ]; then
NAME_SPACE=$(echo " ${line}" | cut -d'=' -f2)
echo "The name space value is $NAME_SPACE"
elif [ `echo ${line} | grep -E -c -w "IMAGE_NAMES" ` -gt 0 ]; then
values=$(echo " ${line}" | cut -d'=' -f2)
echo "THE DOCKERIMAGES are $DOCKER_IMAGES_NAMES"
else
echo "Please provide input for namespace and docker images to be scanned by VA_TOOl"
fi
done < ${file}
}
images=$(get_input_values ${file_name})
so here my text file is under jenkins/security folder of gitrepo but unfortunately I am getting this error:
16:05:28 + sh jenkins/security/get_values.sh
16:05:28 jenkins/security/get_values.sh: 16: jenkins/security/get_values.sh: cannot open va_input_file_icp.txt: No such file```
Unfortunately, there is a ticket for this in Jenkins (https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-51245) which was closed as a duplicate of this ticket: (https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-27413)
JENKINS-27413 was raised in 2015, and is still open. The File Parameter appears not to work in Jenkins Pipeline. It does however work when used in a Freestyle project. While not ideal, I would recommend changing your job to be a Freestyle project if that's feasible.

Groovy shell script with a sed command in a Jenkins Pipeline

So writing Groovy with basic shell scripts seem to be much more difficult than it really should be.
I have a pipeline that needs to replace an entry in a file after running a packer command. It seems sensible to do this in the same shell script as the packer command as the variables are not available outside of the shell script even when exported.
The problem is that the sed command needs escape upon escape and still doesn't work. So this is what the Jenkins Pipeline Syntax generator suggested:
parallel (
"build my-application" : {
sh '''#!/bin/bash
export PATH=$PATH:~/bin
cd ${WORKSPACE}/platform/packer
packer build -machine-readable template.json | tee packer.out
AMI_APP=$(grep amazon-ebs,artifact,0,id,eu-west-2:ami- packer.out | awk -F: \'{ print $NF }\')
[[ ! ${AMI_APP} ]] && exit 1
sed -i.bak \'s!aws_ami_app = \\".*\\"!aws_ami_app = \\"\'"${AMI_APP}"\'\\"!\' ${WORKSPACE}/platform/terraform/env-${ENV}/env.auto.tfvars
'''
},
"build some-more-apps" : {
sh ''' *** same again different name ***
'''
}
)
What is the correct way to get a variable is a sed command working in a bash script running in groovy?
Any tips for the correct syntax going forward with Jenkins, groovy and bash - any documentation that actually helps?
EDIT
The original sed command that is running in a Jenkins Job shell is:
sed -i.bak 's!aws_ami_app = \".*\"!aws_ami_app = \"'"${AMI_APP}"'\"!' ${WORKSPACE}/platform/terraform/env-${ENV}/env.auto.tfvars
Because you put the shell script inside ''' which won't trigger Groovy String interpolation.
So you no need to escape any character, write the script as when you typing in Shell cmd window.
Below is example:
sh '''#!/bin/bash +x
echo "aws_ami_app = docker.xy.com/xy-ap123/conn:7et45u.1.23" > test.txt
echo "cpu = 512" >> test.txt
cat test.txt
AMI_APP=docker.xy.com/xy-ap123/conn:7et45u.1.25
sed -i 's,aws_ami_app.*,aws_ami_app = '"$AMI_APP"',' test.txt
cat test.txt
'''
Output in jenkins console:
[Pipeline] sh
[poc] Running shell script
aws_ami_app = docker.xy.com/xy-ap123/conn:7et45u.1.23
cpu = 512
aws_ami_app = docker.xy.com/xy-ap123/conn:7et45u.1.25
cpu = 512

Jenkins Groovy pass variables to parallel runs

I am having problems figuring out how to pass some variables into the parallel runs in the Jenkins groovy script below:
#!/usr/bin/env groovy
def call(version, project) {
sh '''#!/bin/bash
[[ ! -e ${WORKSPACE}/target/rpm/${project}/RPMS/ ]] && mkdir -p ${WORKSPACE}/target/rpm/${project}/RPMS/
(( $(ls ${WORKSPACE}/target/rpm/${project}/RPMS/*.rpm | wc -l) != 0 )) && rm ${WORKSPACE}/target/rpm/${project}/RPMS/*.rpm
cd ${WORKSPACE}/scripts/fpm_requirements && bundle install && bundle show fpm
'''
parallel (
"package foo": {
sh '''#!/bin/bash
export PATH=$PATH:~/bin:~/.gem/ruby/gems
cd ${WORKSPACE}/scripts/fpm_requirements
echo Project is ${project}
echo Version is ${version}
echo Iteration is $(echo ${version} | cut -d . -f 3)
'''
},
"package bar": {
sh '''#!/bin/bash
export PATH=$PATH:~/bin:~/.gem/ruby/gems
cd ${WORKSPACE}/scripts/fpm_requirements
echo Project is ${project}
echo Version is ${version}
echo Iteration is $(echo ${version} | cut -d . -f 3)
'''
}
)
}
So the version and project variables are populated in the first shell that is called but when they hit the two parallel runs they are not being pulled in.
I have tried a few different options to pass them in but none have worked.
Does anyone have any relevant ideas that might help?
You should change the ''' to """. In Groovy, string inside single/triple quote won't trigger string interpolation, but string inside single/triple double quote will do that.
So the ${version} and ${project} in your Shell script will be treated as variable from Shell context, but actually they are exist in Groovy context.
More about Groovy String at here, Below option 2 more suitable for your issue.
Option 1) using "" or """
"package foo": {
sh """#!/bin/bash
export PATH=\$PATH:~/bin:~/.gem/ruby/gems
cd \${WORKSPACE}/scripts/fpm_requirements
echo Project is ${project}
echo Version is ${version}
echo Iteration is \$(echo ${version} | cut -d . -f 3)
"""
},
"package bar": {
sh """#!/bin/bash
export PATH=\$PATH:~/bin:~/.gem/ruby/gems
cd \${WORKSPACE}/scripts/fpm_requirements
echo Project is ${project}
echo Version is ${version}
echo Iteration is \$(echo ${version} | cut -d . -f 3)
"""
}
Attention: need to escape the $ ahead of ${WORKSPACE} and $(echo ..), because we hope $ be kept after interpolation.
Option 2) using ' or ''' and inject version and project into Environment Variables of Shell context.
def call(version, project) {
env.version=version
env.project=project
// Groovy env api used to inject groovy value into environment variable
// so that you can refer groovy value later in shell script
// still use ''' in following code, no need to change
...

jenkins pipeline: multiline shell commands with pipe

I am trying to create a Jenkins pipeline where I need to execute multiple shell commands and use the result of one command in the next command or so. I found that wrapping the commands in a pair of three single quotes ''' can accomplish the same. However, I am facing issues while using pipe to feed output of one command to another command. For example
stage('Test') {
sh '''
echo "Executing Tests"
URL=`curl -s "http://localhost:4040/api/tunnels/command_line" | jq -r '.public_url'`
echo $URL
RESULT=`curl -sPOST "https://api.ghostinspector.com/v1/suites/[redacted]/execute/?apiKey=[redacted]&startUrl=$URL" | jq -r '.code'`
echo $RESULT
'''
}
Commands with pipe are not working properly. Here is the jenkins console output:
+ echo Executing Tests
Executing Tests
+ curl -s http://localhost:4040/api/tunnels/command_line
+ jq -r .public_url
+ URL=null
+ echo null
null
+ curl -sPOST https://api.ghostinspector.com/v1/suites/[redacted]/execute/?apiKey=[redacted]&startUrl=null
I tried entering all these commands in the jenkins snippet generator for pipeline and it gave the following output:
sh ''' echo "Executing Tests"
URL=`curl -s "http://localhost:4040/api/tunnels/command_line" | jq -r \'.public_url\'`
echo $URL
RESULT=`curl -sPOST "https://api.ghostinspector.com/v1/suites/[redacted]/execute/?apiKey=[redacted]&startUrl=$URL" | jq -r \'.code\'`
echo $RESULT
'''
Notice the escaped single quotes in the commands jq -r \'.public_url\' and jq -r \'.code\'. Using the code this way solved the problem
UPDATE: : After a while even that started to give problems. There were certain commands executing prior to these commands. One of them was grunt serve and the other was ./ngrok http 9000. I added some delay after each of these commands and it solved the problem for now.
The following scenario shows a real example that may need to use multiline shell commands. Which is, say you are using a plugin like Publish Over SSH and you need to execute a set of commands in the destination host in a single SSH session:
stage ('Prepare destination host') {
sh '''
ssh -t -t user#host 'bash -s << 'ENDSSH'
if [[ -d "/path/to/some/directory/" ]];
then
rm -f /path/to/some/directory/*.jar
else
sudo mkdir -p /path/to/some/directory/
sudo chmod -R 755 /path/to/some/directory/
sudo chown -R user:user /path/to/some/directory/
fi
ENDSSH'
'''
}
Special Notes:
The last ENDSSH' should not have any characters before it. So it
should be at the starting position of a new line.
use ssh -t -t if you have sudo within the remote shell command
I split the commands with &&
node {
FOO = world
stage('Preparation') { // for display purposes
sh "ls -a && pwd && echo ${FOO}"
}
}
The example outputs:
- ls -a (the files in your workspace
- pwd (location workspace)
- echo world
