Re: pipeline: parameters documentation.

2018-08-13 Thread Craig Rodrigues 
Today, I also learned about the new *Declarative Directive Generator* which
is available
in the latest Jenkins and pipeline distributions::
https://jenkins.io/blog/2018/04/09/whats-in-declarative/

If you use that and click on *Sample Directive -> parameters: Parameters*
then you can see the different types of parameters which are available, and
the
code necessary to use them.

2018-08-13 Thread Craig Rodrigues 
I submitted this pull request which got accepted:

https://github.com/jenkins-infra/jenkins.io/pull/1711

and now there are more examples of parameters at:

https://jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/syntax/#parameters

for *text*, *choice*, *password*, *booleanParam*, and *file* parameters.

If look below the example on the source you quote, you'll see:
***

of INFRA-1503 .


***

work in progress.




But why is it then the only thing that is documented. If you go to 
https://jenkins.io/ then push the documentation tab you end up in the 
pipeline documentation. its basically the only documentation existing so 
If I'm not supposed to use it what should I use then ?


From my point of view it looks like I can not actually use this for 
real work. looks like I need to make my own plugin. This pipeline thing 
is just not at a state where it can be used.

pipeline: parameters documentation.

2017-04-26 Thread Kenneth Johansson 
hmm I'm starting to question the usefulness of the pipeline system. Its 
very hard to understand how to do even very basic stuff.


Even something as easy as finding out what type of parameters I can use 
is hard.


The documentation on https://jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/syntax/ only 
mention string and booleanParam. but since I wrote something wrong I got 
a error message so now I know that I can use. booleanParam, choice, 
file, text, password, run, string


But how do the syntax for it look ?? How do I find that out. is there 
some java source I can read or is this implemented in some other groovy 
script?




here is what the section on parameters say .

---
Required No
Parameters None
Allowed Only once, inside the pipeline block.

-

then it lists string and booleanParam as parameters. the thing it 
mentioned as none just a few lines above. :(
