I want to call curl on a webpage with get parameters from the jenkins-groovy-script via sh:

sh("curl http://example.com/page.cgi?param1=a&param2=b&param3=c")

But the command is split at the '&' and in the output log of jenkins there is something like:

  param3=c
  curl http://example.com/page.cgi?param1=a
  param2=b

Of course the call to the web server only contains the first parameter.

I tried already with different kind of escaping but without success.

How can I make the call including all the parameters?

CodePudding user response：

Just like in the command line, you have to quote it or escape it. Research quoting and escaping in sh shell.

Try:

sh("curl 'http://example.com/page.cgi?param1=a&param2=b&param3=c'")
sh('curl "http://example.com/page.cgi?param1=a&param2=b&param3=c"')
sh("curl http://example.com/page.cgi?param1=a\\&param2=b&param3=c")
sh("curl \"http://example.com/page.cgi?param1=a&param2=b&param3=c\"")

& in shell means to run something in the background, like sleep 10 & wait.
