How do I pass variables between stages in a declarative pipeline?
In a scripted pipeline, I gather the procedure is to write to a temporary file, then read the file into a variable.
How do I do this in a declarative pipeline?
E.g. I want to trigger a build of a different job, based on a variable created by a shell action.
stage("stage 1") {
steps {
sh "do_something > var.txt"
// I want to get var.txt into VAR
}
}
stage("stage 2") {
steps {
build job: "job2", parameters[string(name: "var", value: "${VAR})]
}
}

readFile
as seen below. If not, usesh
with thescript
option as seen below:
