Archive artifacts in jenkins

Question

I have issue with archiving folder path in jenkins. I want only to archive what is inside my projects debug folder. I use following to do that.

MyApp1/MyApp1/bin/Debug/*

When I use that it will archive what inside debug folder but keep the same folder structure (MyApp1/MyApp1/bin/Debug).
If I only need t archive the files inside debug (Debug/) folder what shoud I do.

Please advice me.

Answer 1

A cleaner way might be to have a stage dedicated to producing artifacts, set up with the appropriate working directory:

    stage('Release') {
        steps {
            dir('MyApp1/MyApp1/bin/Debug') {
                archiveArtifacts artifacts: '**', fingerprint: true
            }
        }
    }

Answer 2

I created a method to achieve this:

def archiveFilesWithoutPath(globPattern) {
    def files = findFiles(glob: globPattern)
    for (def i = 0; i < files.size(); i++) {
        def file = files[i]
        def parentFolder = new File(file.path).getParent()
        dir(parentFolder) {
            archiveArtifacts file.name
        }
    }
}

Is is used like this:

archiveFilesWithoutPath '**/build/libs/*.jar'

The only downside currently is that you need to allow

new java.io.File java.lang.String

and

method java.io.File getParent

In the script approval.
