Purpose
Add custom properties to a build. There are different ways of setting and getting them:
- Pipeline steps: setCustomBuildProperty, getCustomBuildProperty
- Exported to Remote API
- HTTP GET and POST (e.g. http://.../someJob/lastCompletedBuild/custombuildproperties/get?key=MyKey)
The properties are displayed on the build summary page - per default as a key value table.
The step waitForCustomBuildProperties can be used for synchronization in parallel branches.
Multi column table rendering
Per default custom build properties are displayed as a key value table. In order to create a multi column table you need to add a regex matching two groups: 1st is the rowName, 2nd is the columnName. The regex is applied to each key. Add the regex as custom build property using the special key _cbp_table_<tablename>.
Formatting
Custom build properties can be used to display additional information to users. For this purpose keys and values can be formatted using HTML. It is even possible to embed SVG. HTML and SVG is sanitized using OWASP. If more elements and attributes are needed, please create a PR.
