Unable to do robot framework reports collection in Jenkins - jenkins-pipeline

I'm trying to run 4 test scripts in parallel. I want to store the output.xml file for each test script in the following manner-
Test_1 -> output1.xml
Test_2 -> output2.xml
.
.
Test_4 -> output3.xml
and combine them together and generate one single report.html file
I'm getting some errors related to the output.xml file location.
There is my script in Jenkins to run the robot-
pipeline {
agent any
triggers {
cron('H */4 * * 1-5')
}
stages {
stage('Testing') {
parallel{
stage('Testing- Operator') {
steps {
sh '''robot //var//jenkins_home//workspace//Testing_Operator//Operator.robot
robot archiveDirName:\'robot-plugin\',logFileName: \'**/log*.html\',outputFileName:\'**/output*.xml\',outputPath:\'/var/jenkins_home/workspace/Testing_Pipeline\',overwriteXAxisLabel: \'\',reportFileName:\'**/report*.html\''''
}
}
stage('Testing -Manager') {
steps {
sh '''robot //var//jenkins_home//workspace//Testing_Manger//Manager.robot
robot archiveDirName:\'robot-plugin\',logFileName: \'**/log*.html\',outputFileName:\'**/output*.xml\',outputPath:\'/var/jenkins_home/workspace/Testing_Pipeline\',overwriteXAxisLabel: \'\',reportFileName:\'**/report*.html\''''
}
}
stage('Testing -Admin') {
steps {
sh '''robot //var//jenkins_home//workspace//Testing_Admin//Admin.robot
robot archiveDirName:\'robot-plugin\',logFileName: \'**/log*.html\',outputFileName:\'**/output*.xml\',outputPath:\'/var/jenkins_home/workspace/Testing_Pipeline\',overwriteXAxisLabel: \'\',reportFileName:\'**/report*.html\''''
}
}
stage('Testing -Owner') {
steps {
sh '''robot //var//jenkins_home//workspace//Testing_Owner//Owner.robot
robot archiveDirName:\'robot-plugin\',logFileName: \'**/log*.html\',outputFileName:\'**/output*.xml\',outputPath:\'/var/jenkins_home/workspace/Testing_Pipeline\',overwriteXAxisLabel: \'\',reportFileName:\'**/report*.html\''''
}
}
}
}
}
}
Here is the error-
Output: /var/jenkins_home/workspace/Testing_Pipeline/output.xml
[ ERROR ] Reading XML source '/var/jenkins_home/workspace/Testing_Pipeline/output.xml'
failed: ParseError: not well-formed (invalid token): line xx, column xx
What could be the possible cause of the error? Is the syntax correct?

Probably the output.xml is broken due to running robot in parallel.
What you can do is for all the robot commands to use the flag for a different output path (or filename), and in a final stage call rebot to produce the final report and logs.

Jenkins function of shared library executed on wrong node

I have a simple shared library and want to call a function which creates a file.
My pipeline script looks like this:
#Library('jenkins-shared-library')_
pipeline {
agent {
node {
label 'node1'
}
}
stages {
stage('test') {
steps {
script {
def host = sh(script: 'hostname', returnStdout: true).trim()
echo "Hostname is: ${host}"
def testlib = new TestLibrary(script:this)
testlib.createFile("/tmp/file1")
}
}
}
}
}
This pipeline job is triggered by another job which runs on the built-in master node.
The stage 'test' is correctly executed on the 'node1'.
Problem: The created file "/tmp/file1" is created on the jenkins master, instead of "node1"
I also tried it without the shared library and load a groovy script
directly in a step:
pipeline {
agent {
node {
label 'node1'
}
}
stages {
stage('test') {
steps {
script {
def script = load "/path/to/script.groovy"
script.createFile("/tmp/file1")
}
}
}
}
}
This also creates the file on the master node, instead on "node1".
Is there no way of loading external libs or classes and execute them on the node where the stage is running on ? I dont want to place all the code directly into the step.
Ok I found it myself, groovy scripts run by definition always on the master node. No way to run scripts or shared-library code on a node other than master.

Parallel Stages with parallel input message in Jenkins pipe line

I have the following pipeline:
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('CI') {
parallel {
stage('גמלאות') {
steps {
input message: "Pass Sanity?"
}
}
stage('וועדות') {
steps {
input message: "Pass Sanity?"
}
}
stage('מבוטח') {
steps {
input message: "Pass Sanity?"
}
}
}
}
}
}
I'm expecting to see in the UI 3 option to select in each stage. but getting only one instead.
If I will look at tradinall console then I will be able to select if to proceed or to abort.
Is there a way to get this function thru the UI?
Here is an example of the UI:
It seems that the code is correct. The problem is with the Jenkins plugin.
I mooved to work with Blueocean plugin, and now it seems to work fine:

How to configure jenkins pipeline with logstash plugin?

Usecase: I want to send jenkins job console log to elasticsearch, from there to kibana so that i can visualise the data.
I am using logstash plugin to achieve this. For freestyle job logstash plugin configuration is working fine but for jenkins pipeline jobs I am getting all required data like build number, job name, build duration and all but it is not showing the build result i.e., success or failure it is not showing.
I tried in two ways:
1.
stage('send to ES') {
logstashSend failBuild: true, maxLines: -1
}
2.
timestamps {
logstash {
node() {
sh'''
echo 'Hello, World!'
'''
try {
stage('GitSCM')
{
git url: 'github repo.git'
}
stage('Initialize')
{
jdk = tool name: 'jdk'
env.JAVA_HOME = "${jdk}"
echo "jdk installation path is: ${jdk}"
sh "${jdk}/bin/java -version"
sh '$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version'
def mvnHome = tool 'mvn'
}
stage('Build Stage')
{
def mvnHome = tool 'mvn'
sh "${mvnHome}/bin/mvn -B verify"
}
currentBuild.result = 'SUCCESS'
} catch (Exception err) {
currentBuild.result = 'FAILURE'
}
}
}
}
But in both ways I am not getting build result i.e., success or failure in my elasticsearch or kibana.
Can someone help.
I didn't find a clear way to do that, my solution was add those lines at the end of the Jenkinsfile:
echo "Current result: ${currentBuild.currentResult}"
logstashSend failBuild: true, maxLines: 3
In my case, I dont need it to send all console logs, only one log with the result per job.

Is there a way to move the entire post {} build section in Jenkinsfile to the global pipeline library?

I'm relatively new to Jenkins pipelines, but having implemented already a few, I've realised I need to start using jenkins shared library before I go mad.
Have already figured out how to define some repetitive steps in the library and call them with less clutter from Jenkinsfile, but not sure if the same thing can be done for the entire post build section (thought I've read about to how to define the entire pipeline in the lib and similar), as this is pretty much static end of every single pipeline code:
#Library('jenkins-shared-library')_
pipeline {
agent none
stages {
stage ('System Info') { agent any
steps { printSysInfo() }
}
stage ('Init'){ agent {label 'WinZipSE'}
steps { init('SCMroot') }
}
stage('Build') { agent any
steps { doMagic() }
}
}
// This entire 'post {}' section needs to go to a shared lib
// and be called just with a simple methed call, e.g.
// doPostBuild()
post {
always {
node ('master') {
googlechatnotification (
message: '[$BUILD_STATUS] Build $JOB_NAME $BUILD_NUMBER has finished',
url: 'id:credential_id_for_Ubuntu')
step (
[$class: 'Mailer',
recipients: 'sysadmins#example.com me#example.com',
notifyEveryUnstableBuild: true,
sendToIndividuals: true]
)
}
}
success {
node ('master') {
echo 'This will run only if successful'
}
}
failure {
node ('master') {
echo 'This will run only if failed'
}
}
// and so on
}
}
I just dunno how to syntactically achieve that. For sure, I can define the entire post build section an a lib/var like: doPotBuild.groovy
def call () {
post {...}
}
but how I will eventually call it from within my Jenkinsfile outside of that defined post {} build block section (AKA stages).
I can call it within some stage('post build){doPostBuild()}, but it won't serve the way how the true post {} section is supposed to work, e.g. it won't get executed it there was failure in one of the previous stages.
Any thoughts on that and mainly working examples?
I am not entirely if this will work as I don't use declarative pipelines, so am unsure how rigid the top level structure is. But I would revert to a script block.
#Library('jenkins-shared-library')_
pipeline {
agent none
stages {
stage ('System Info') { agent any
steps { printSysInfo() }
}
stage ('Init'){ agent {label 'WinZipSE'}
steps { init('SCMroot') }
}
stage('Build') { agent any
steps { doMagic() }
}
}
// This entire 'post {}' section needs to go to a shared lib
// and be called just with a simple methed call, e.g.
// doPostBuild()
script {
doPostBuild()
}
}

How to ask user input only when branch matches master in Jenkinsfile pipeline?

I tried to use the following Jenkinsfile to ask input only on master branch and can't get the groovy grammer pass validation:
pipeline {
stage('Deploy') {
when {
branch 'master'
}
steps {
input(message: "Please input", parameters: [string(name: "VERSION", defaultValue="", description="")]
}
}
}
The error is:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Expected named arguments but got [{name=VERSION, description=""}, null]
I searched a lot but didn't find a single one example about using input step in the Jenkinsfile with parameters.
Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks in advance!
Finally find a way to do this, we should wrap the input with the script keyword.
stage('Deploy to k8s prod') {
when {
branch 'release-prod'
}
steps {
script {
env.VERSION = input message: '请输入参数', ok: '确定', parameters: [
string(name:'VERSION', description: "版本号")]
}
sh "echo ${env.VERSION}"
}
}
}
