Access Stage name during the build in Jenkins pipeline

Question

Let's say we have the following Jenkinsfile:

stage name: "Cool stage"     sh 'whoami' stage name: "Better stage"     def current_stage = getCurrentStageName()     echo "CONGRATULATIONS, you are on stage: $current_stage" 

The question is how to implement getCurrentStageName(). I know, that I can get an access to build run-time using currentBuild.rawBuild. But how to get stage name from that point?

I need this for some customization in email notifications, so that I can always catch failed stage name and include it into email body.

Answer 1

You can now do this in a built-in manner, since Jenkins 2.3. Like so:

steps {     updateGitlabCommitStatus name: STAGE_NAME, state: 'running'     echo '${STAGE_NAME}' }
