Retry and timeout in Jenkins DSL Pipeline job - jenkins-pipeline

Question

I have a logic for deployment on certain environment that I need to retry. And that logic have some timeout too. So I wrote the DSL code as below:
Pipeline {
stages {
stage('Promote To Stage2 Environment') {
options {
timeout(time: "${env.STAGE_TIME_OUT}", unit: "HOURS")
retry("${env.RETRY_COUNT}")
}
steps {
script {
//my logic
}
}
}
}
}
Now , I need to perform rollback action and need to terminate pipeline job, in case retry exceeded or timeout exceeded while doing deployment on particular environment. So I modified the code as below:
pipeline {
stages {
stage('Promote To Stage2 Environment') {
steps {
script {
try {
timeout(time: "${env.STAGE_TIME_OUT}", unit: "HOURS") {
retry("${env.RETRY_COUNT}") {
//my logic
}
}
}
} catch (err) {
//Need rollback. action to be required , in case retry exceeded or timeout happen
performRollBack('env')
error('Deployment on Stage1 failed..... Build rolled back....')
}
}
}
}
}
Is this is a right way, or something I am missing.

Answer 1

you can also do like below example:
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('debug') {
options {
timeout(time: 10, unit: 'SECONDS')
retry(2)
}
steps {
// uncomment below to check post failure
sh "exit 1"
// uncomment below to check post unsuccessful scenario
//sleep 100
}
}
}
post {
always {
echo 'I will execute always'
}
failure {
echo 'I will execute if a failure occured'
}
unsuccessful {
echo 'I will execute if a job is timedout and failed'
}
}
}
Retry scenario the output will be
Timeout scenario the output will be
