This is my personal Jenkins Shared Library.

This repository contains a library of Jenkins Global Variables & Helper Variables that I can use in my project's Jenkinsfile

Based on the following articles:

• How-To-Build-Your-Own-Jenkins-Shared-Library
• Unit-Testing-A-Jenkins-Shared-Library

As per the instructions on the [Jenkins Documentation], to include this library; in your Jenkinsfile:

@Library('[email protected]') _

note that the name is the id of the Shared Library configured under Jenkins Configuration and the version after the @ sign can be master which points to the master branch of this library or simply omitted which would pick up the default version configured under Jenkins Configuration (if you have it configured there).

To use one of the global variables or helper variables defined in this library you just simply call it like the following examples.

@Library('[email protected]') _
buildJavaApp(repo: "name of repo")

@Library('[email protected]') _
buildJavaAppDockerFull(repo: "name of repo", microserviceName: "example-app")

See under vars/ to see list of full available Global Variables/Helper Variables to use.

Alternatively, you can check out this example demo project which shows some use cases of this Shared Library: Jenkins Pipelines

A lot of the configuration for external systems (Github, SonarQube etc) are set in the Constants.groovy constants class. You can edit this to match according to your settings.

Each of the global variables (helper functions) has its own documentation (corresponding *.txt file). You can access these documentation on the Global Variable Reference link on the navigation sidebar of pipeline jobs that imported this shared library.

Note that as per Jenkins documentation this is only visible after one successful run of the pipeline job for the documentation to be generated.

The documentation is in (.txt) file format and contains HTML.
