We have few components which is stored in their own git repositories. Specific combination of those components are built and delivered as solutions for different type of deployments/customers. So, we have a pipeline git repository which has multiple Jenkinsfile (with different names - and so the build names).
Obviously, there are many things common between these pipelines. I'm aware of Jenkins shared library and it works when they're given their own git repository. But, since my pipelines are already in dedicated git repository, I'm curious to know how to use "Folder-level Shared Libraries" explained here --> https://jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/shared-libraries/#folder-level-shared-libraries
But, I'm not able to figure out how to use this Folder-level shared libraries. I couldn't find any examples/documentation for this style of libraries.
Any pointers to documentation/example - or guidelines on how to go with this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
I guess that proper way to do that is to implement a custom SCMRetriever
and use library
step.
However, you can use the following hack:
Assuming jenkins/vars/log.groovy
in your local repo contains:
def info(message) {
echo "INFO: ${message}"
}
Your Jenkinsfile
can load that shared library from the jenkins/
directory using library
step:
node('node1') { // load library
checkout scm
// create new git repo inside jenkins subdirectory
sh('cd jenkins && git init && git add --all . && git commit -m init &> /dev/null')
def repoPath = sh(returnStdout: true, script: 'pwd').trim() + "/jenkins"
library identifier: 'local-lib@master', retriever: modernSCM([$class: 'GitSCMSource', remote: repoPath])
}
node('node2') {
stage('Build') {
log.info("called shared lib") // use the loaded library
}
}
