Dynamically generate a list for multi-choice options in Jenkins depending on the changing list of op-CodePudding

I need to pass the necessary parameter values to Jenkins, which are formed from the names of the files in the directory. The number of these files, as well as the names can change, so it is necessary to form them after they merge with the SCM. I'll try to use User Input parameters, I'll describe what happened later, but maybe there are other options? Thanks!

CodePudding user response：

I tried via User Input parameters. I managed to add a drop-down list from which I can choose only one option. But what do I need to do to be able to select multiple options?

properties(
    [
        parameters(
            [
                choice(
                    name: 'SomeParam',
                    choices: ['some', 'any'], 
                    description: 'some, any' 
                )
            ]
        )
    ]
)
def UserInput(String SomeParam)
{
    stage('User Input')
    {
        //worked01
        def USER_INPUT = 
        input message: 'Parameters:', ok: 'Start',
        parameters: [
          [$class: 'ChoiceParameterDefinition',
          choices: ['foo', 'bar'],
          name: 'SomeChoices',
          description: 'Menu - select options']
        ]
        echo "USER_INPUT=${USER_INPUT}"
        return USER_INPUT   
    }
}
node{
    UserInput(SomeParam)
}

I suggested what can be done through the check box with the ability to mark each option. To do this, I tried to add each value from the list as a separate boolean parameter.

properties(
    [
        parameters(
            [
                choice(
                    name: 'SomeParam',
                    choices: ['some', 'any'], 
                    description: 'some, any' 
                )
            ]
        )
    ]
)
def UserInput(String SomeParam)
{
    stage('User Input')
    {
        def USER_INPUT = input message: 'User Input', ok: 'Start', parameters: [booleanParam(description: 'its foo', name: 'foo'), booleanParam(description: 'its bar', name: 'bar')]
        echo "USER_INPUT=${USER_INPUT}"
        return USER_INPUT   
    }
}
node{
    UserInput(SomeParam)
}

The question arises, how to dynamically create these parameters from their number. I assumed that it is possible to replace with a variable part of the code that I can generate separately, depending on the number of required parameters

properties(
        [
            parameters(
                [
                    choice(
                        name: 'SomeParam',
                        choices: ['some', 'any'], 
                        description: 'some, any' 
                    )
                ]
            )
        ]
    )
    def UserInput(String SomeParam)
    {
        stage('User Input')
        {
            env.var01 = "booleanParam(description: 'its 1', name: '1')"
            env.var02 = "booleanParam(description: 'its 2', name: '2')"
            def USER_INPUT = input message: 'User Input', ok: 'Start', parameters: ['$var01', '$var02']
            echo "USER_INPUT=${USER_INPUT}"
            return USER_INPUT   
        }
    }
    node{
        UserInput(SomeParam)
    }

But it didn't work

Maybe someone knows other options for how to do this, or can tell me how to properly format my solution. Thank you very much for your attention!

everything worked out, problem solved, syntax issue variable values were entered without quotes, i.e. immediately made executable

def var01 = booleanParam(description: 'its 1', name: '1')
def var02 = booleanParam(description: 'its 2', name: '2')
def USER_INPUT = input message: 'User Input', ok: 'Start', parameters: [var01, var02]
