Monday Learnings

Today I put together the start of a common reporting library for groovy scripts in Jenkins.  The scripts are all checked into my gitea repository according to a plan. 

I created the file structures, but hadn't populated any groovy scripts and that was perfect because it was reflected when I pressed the "build now" option in Jenkins.

Failure is an option - it is beautiful

 

This was very telling!  Yup - I hadn't populated any .groovy files.

I fixed that and performed another "build now". 

.

D'oh!  Of course...

@Library('jenkinslib@main') _ 

pipeline {
    agent any
    stages {
        stage('Build') {
            steps {
                // Call your custom global variable step directly
                // buildApp(env: 'production') 
                echo "performing a build."
            }
        }
    }
}
  
  

 The immediate fix was as simple as adding an "echo".  It just needed to do something.
