What is a proper way to read environment variables for multi branch pipeline?
Right now, I am reading an env.properties file kept in jenkins workspace, and then populating my global env. def readEnvVars(envFile) { def props = new Properties() def fis = new FileInputStream(envFile) props.load(fis) return props } node { // write into global env variables def props = readEnvVars('env.properties') env.DATABASE = props.DATABSE // and more global env variable } I am not that happy with this approach. Still, I can live with it. But this throws error in case of multi branch, but works for single branch pipeline.
