Custom Checkbox Parameter

This plug-in can dynamically create a set of check boxes for users to check before building. The check box settings are configured through YAML or JSON files, and the file content can be obtained through HTTP, HTTPS, or file paths. After checking the check box, the user can use params['ParameterName'] in the build script to get the selected value. The result of the user's selection is returned in the form of a string separated by "," value1, value2, value3.

中文说明

The complete configuration content example is as follows, but it is not necessary to fill in all the content. Most configuration content can use the default values:

Parameter Name: Use params['ParameterName'] in the build script to get the value selected by the user.

Description: The description text of the construction parameters.

Use Protocol: HTTP_HTTPS, FILE_PATH, FILE_PATH represents the file system path, HTTP_HTTPS refers to HTTP or HTTPS protocol.

URI: If the "Use Protocol" option is HTTP_HTTPS, enter the URL of the file for the URI, if the "Use Protocol" option is FILE_PATH, then enter the file path for the URI.

Document Format: supports YAML and JSON formats. (YAML requires spaces to be aligned and spaces after ":")

Examples of YAML format and JSON format are as follows:

CheckboxParameter:
  - key: key-1
    value: value-1
  - key: key-2
    value: value-2
  - key: key-3
    value: value-3

{
    "CheckboxParameter": [
    {
      "key": "key-1",
      "value": "value-1"
    },
    {
      "key": "key-2",
      "value": "value-2"
    },
    {
      "key": "key-3",
      "value": "value-3"
    }
  ]
}

Display Node Path: Specify the node path for the check box to display the content (this format is common to different formats). The root of the node in the file is represented by "//", and the child nodes are separated by "/". The default is: / /CheckboxParameter/key, corresponding to the content selected in the above example: key-1, key-2, key-3, the node path can be customized according to this mode.

Value Node Path: Specify the node path for the check box to select the value (this format is common to different formats). The root of the node in the file is represented by "//", and the child nodes are separated by "/". The default is: / /CheckboxParameter/value, corresponding to the content selected in the above example: value-1, value-2, value-3, the node path can be customized according to this mode.

After selecting the "Use only the input as the document content" check box, you can directly enter the YAML format or JSON format content of the configuration check box. The content format is set by the "Document Format" option, and the URI will be ignored after directly entering the configuration content Settings.

Configuration file address

Configuration file content:

CheckboxParameter:
  - key: y-1
    value: value-1
  - key: y-2
    value: value-2
  - key: y-3
    value: value-3

Build script:

node{
    print params['my-checkbox']
}

Construction parameter selection:

Started by user sunweisheng
Running in Durability level: MAX_SURVIVABILITY
[Pipeline] Start of Pipeline
[Pipeline] node
Running on Jenkins in /root/.jenkins/workspace/test-custom-checkbox-parameter
[Pipeline] {
[Pipeline] echo
value-1,value-3
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // node
[Pipeline] End of Pipeline
Finished: SUCCESS

In addition: the results of the check boxes selected during each build will be saved for the user to use next time.

Use file system path:

Enter the file content directly (Json format):

Configuration file content:

pipeline {
    agent any
    parameters {
        checkboxParameter(name: 'Platforms1', format: 'JSON',
                pipelineSubmitContent: '{"CheckboxParameter": [{"key": "nt","value": "nt"},{"key": "linux","value": "linux"},{"key": "unix","value": "unix"}]}', description: '')
        checkboxParameter(name: 'Platforms2', format: 'YAML',
                pipelineSubmitContent: "CheckboxParameter: \n  - key: monday\n    value: monday\n  - key: tuesday\n    value: tuesday\n", description: '')
    }
    stages {
        stage('Hello') {
            steps {
                echo 'Hello World'
            }
        }
    }
}

Show checkbox during build:

parameter list:

• name: required
• description: not required, default ""
• format: required, YAML, JSON, default Empty
• displayNodePath: not required, default //CheckboxParameter/key
• valueNodePath: not required, default //CheckboxParameter/value
• pipelineSubmitContent: required

You can create parameters in the build script, but because each execution of the build script creates a new "Custom Checkbox Parameter" build parameter, the last selected value cannot be retained.
