how does jenkins recognize paths inside a python script?-CodePudding

I have a python script that points to some file names and log files and I have jenkins to run the script, when run locally from my system the code works fine.

The way I access my folders in python: folder_artifacts_data = 'C:/Users/Rhea/OneDrive -Area/Rhea/Metrics_Configuration/Artifacts/' path_to_log_file ='C:/Users/Rhea/OneDrive -Area/Rhea/Metrics_Configuration/Logfiles/Logfile.log'

but when I try to run the same using jenkins, I get the following error:

No such file or directory: /opt/jenkins/workspace/confluencetest_scheduled/C:/Users/Rhea/OneDrive -Area/Rhea/Metrics_Configuration/Logfiles/Logfile.log

Now, I tried different file paths and used r-strings

folder_artifacts_data = r'C:/Users/Rhea/OneDrive -Area/Rhea/Metrics_Configuration/Artifacts/' path_to_log_file =r'C:/Users/Rhea/OneDrive -Area/Rhea/Metrics_Configuration/Logfiles/Logfile.log'

I see that jenkins has accepted the log file, because I see the logs written, but the moment it reaches folder_artifacts_data it throws the error that the file path do not exist.

Could someone help?

Update Now I have added relative paths, like: folder_artifacts_data0 = 'C:/Users/Rhea/OneDrive -Area/Rhea/Metrics_Configuration/Artifacts/' folder_artifacts_data = os.path.relpath(folder_artifacts_data0) path_to_log_file0 ='C:/Users/Rhea/OneDrive -Area/Rhea/Metrics_Configuration/Logfiles/Logfile.log' path_to_log_file = os.path.relpath(path_to_log_file0)

that outputs paths like: ..............\Rhea\OneDrive -Area\Rhea\Metrics_Configuration\Artifacts

and

..............\Rhea\OneDrive -Area\Rhea\Metrics_Configuration\Logfiles\Logfile.log

this works well in my local, again I get No such file or directory: /opt/jenkins/workspace/confluencetest_scheduled/C:/Users/Rhea/OneDrive -Area/Rhea/Metrics_Configuration/Logfiles/Logfile.log while running from jenkins.

CodePudding user response：

Ok the problem was that there was no such file name inside the workspace of the jenkins job, how do we make it aware of the local folder ?

Using docker volumes. I have made necessary change(ie added volumes) and now it works.
