Here's a pipeline that reproduces the bug:
podTemplate {
node(POD_LABEL) {
container("jnlp") {
stage("Run") {
env.FOO = '$string\$with\$dollars'
echo "from groovy: ${env.FOO}"
sh 'env | grep FOO'
sh 'echo from sh: $FOO'
}
}
}
}
Here's the output: from groovy: $string$with$dollars FOO=$$string$$with$$dollars from sh: $$string$$with$$dollars Note that all the dollar signs have been doubled! Note that we've included a call to env, which prints the same incorrect string, so that we can eliminate the possibility of groovy string interpolation issues. We isolated the problem to the container() function. The bug does not occur with this version of the code, where it is removed, despite that the exact same container (jnlp) is actually used:
