How to run a git command with SSH key on jenkins using batch?-CodePudding

I have a bat script that is run on my jenkins pipeline.

It is used to tag a specific commit of my branch, and push it back to git. Looks like this:

"scriptCommand": https://%C_USERNAME%:%C_PASSWORD%@bitbucket.psr.io/scme/ci/ci.git\ngit push origin TAG1\ngit remote set-url --push origin https://bitbucket..psr.io/scme/ci/ci.git"

That command is made using the variables C_USERNAME, C_PASSWORD and the TAG1 The first two are taken from a usernamePassword type jenkins credentials, and are injected into the string, the TAG1 is a stimple string that should be used to get my git branch tagged

And that works, when I use the http link instead of the SSH link for my repo

I need to be able to handle the SSH link as well. For that, I researched on SSH private key, and turns out that the jenkins credentials have a specific field for it: SSH Username with private key

I made one such credential in jenkins, using my private key, and username

But now I am having trouble on how to create a batch line that works the same as the one above with the http link.

Needless to say, I have 0 exp on this matter.

Can some help me on this? And thank you for your time.

CodePudding user response：

The SSH URL would be like:

[email protected]/scme/ci/ci.git

But you might want to use a dedicated plugin, like publish over SSH, which you can include in a pipeline.

In your case:

git remote set-url --push origin [email protected]/scme/ci/ci.git

Using an SSH agent plugin

node {
  sshagent (credentials: ['myKey']) {
    sh 'git push [email protected]/scme/ci/ci.git aTag'
  }
}

Assuming you have registered your private key in the Jenkins Global credentials (unrestricted), as an entry named 'myKey'.

Using withCredentials, as shown here, assuming Git 2.10 for GIT_SSH_COMMAND:

withCredentials([sshUserPrivateKey(credentialsId: "myKey", keyFileVariable: 'key')]) {
        //auth to git here then do some commands for example:
        sh 'git commmit -am "hello my commit message'
        sh 'GIT_SSH_COMMAND = "ssh -i $key"'
        sh 'git push [email protected]/scme/ci/ci.git aTag'
    }
