Thanks Gaven. Groovy is cool but we are using JCasC yaml to create credentials. I want to populate an environment variable and use it in my config.yaml. I want to know if there is a way to do it without using docker secrets. For example, when running Jenkins instance inside a VM or using jenkins.war file on local machine. Is there a way to do it in these cases (without going through UI)?
The config file looks like this: > credentials: > system: > domainCredentials: > - credentials: > - gitlabPersonalAccessToken: > scope: SYSTEM > id: "i<3GitLab" > token: ${GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN} > > On Tue, Jun 11, 2019 at 10:04 AM Gavin Mogan <gmo...@cloudbees.com> wrote: > You can unsafely access the script console - > https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Jenkins+Script+Console > > then you can create credentials using groovy, example - > https://github.com/halkeye-docker/docker-jenkins/blob/22ba8c4408b3a16188dc9fe967293849e8f12468/groovy/0012-add-tokens.groovy#L50-L57 > > On Mon, Jun 10, 2019 at 8:12 PM Parichay Barpanda < > parichay.barpa...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> For example, >> >> To delete a job, you can make a POST request to Jenkins server as: >> >> curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/job/my-job-name/doDelete --user >> jenkins:f1499cc9852c899d327a1f644e61a64d >> >> where, >> *username*: jenkins >> *api token*: f1499cc9852c899d327a1f644e61a64d >> >> On Tuesday, June 11, 2019 at 8:24:32 AM UTC+5:30, Parichay Barpanda wrote: >>> >>> Hi all, >>> >>> I am trying to figure out a way to add an environment variable to >>> Jenkins without using the UI.
