[JENKINS-56270] - Support Including shared libraries in Jenkinsfile Runner

[belsander]

Hi,

Thanks for the work! I'm however looking into including a shared library to validate our Jenkinsfiles, but I do not know how to proceed. Could you help me out?

Thanks!

Hi,

You could do this by using JCasC plugin and define your lib in the config.yml.
Here the example how the lib details can be defined:

Best regards.

Hey @belsander,

in the meantime this is really easy to solve using Configuration as Code as mentioned by @OliverNocon. I've described it for a specific case in a blog post, should be really simple to adopt for other cases. I think this issue can be closed.

My plan is to have support of packaging libraries with Custom WAR Packager flow: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-56100

https://jenkins.io/blog/2018/10/16/custom-war-packager/ explains the flow for custom packages

@fwilhe Just in case you are interested, your blog could be reposted on https://jenkins.io/node/ . It would be an interesting case study. CC @tracymiranda

W.r.t rhis particular issue, I am going to close it. JCasC formally addresses the request (see the blogpost), the rest will be automated in https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-56100 .

@oleg-nenashev @tracymiranda I'd love to share the post in other places. What would I need to do for that?

@fwilhe We use configuration-as-code so you can just submit a pull request to https://github.com/jenkins-infra/jenkins.io. Guidelines: https://github.com/jenkins-infra/jenkins.io/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.adoc#adding-a-blog-post

Submitted a PR :)

Thanks for the offering!

Removing Hacktoberfest label, because the easiest way (Filesystem SCM Plugin) has a published unresolved security issues. Ideally it needs a proper solution on the Pipeline Side instead (Lirary Source extension)
