Jenkins pipeline – Remove @tmp folder

Jenkinsjenkins-pipeline

I am using "Workspace Cleanup Plugin" to clean workspace after the job finishes. But still @tmp directory is not deleted.

Any way we can delete this @tmp folder using pipeline script.

It looks like a known issue as far as I see in Jira:

I used custom workspace in Jenkins then deleteDir() will not delete @tmp folder.

So to delete @tmp along with workspace use following

pipeline {
    agent {
        node {
            customWorkspace "/home/jenkins/jenkins_workspace/${JOB_NAME}_${BUILD_NUMBER}"
        }
    }
    post {
        cleanup {
            /* clean up our workspace */
            deleteDir()
            /* clean up tmp directory */
            dir("${workspace}@tmp") {
                deleteDir()
            }
            /* clean up script directory */
            dir("${workspace}@script") {
                deleteDir()
            }
        }
    }
}

This snippet will work for default workspace also.
