Title: Message Title

Harry Mallon commented on JENKINS-36235   Re: Add optional 'timeout' parameter to 'input' step I have been trying to emulate the 'continue' mode in pipeline for a while. This is useful to us as I want to use a multibranch pipeline and want it to provide both user-started release builds and user or auto started testing builds. The best way to emulate this seems to be to give a user choice and fall through to default options (testing) on timeout. What follows is my current attempt and it doesn't work as I cannot tell the difference between a timeout and user pressed Abort. try { timeout(1) { input message: 'Do you want to release this build?', parameters: [[$class: 'BooleanParameterDefinition', defaultValue: false, description: 'Ticking this box will do a release', name: 'Release']] } } catch (err) { def hi = err.getCauses() echo "Exception thrown:\n ${hi}" echo err.getLocalizedMessage() echo err.getCause() echo err.toString() echo err.getClass().getName() } What I am saying is this seems to be a major missing part of pipeline for me, and is blocking me moving from the old style builds.
