The Configure Block

wiki[bot] edited this page Oct 10, 2022 · 27 revisions

Overview

Configure blocks are used inside the Job DSL to give direct access to underlying XML of the Jenkins config.xml. The blocks are closures which get a groovy.util.Node passed in. The XML element represents by the node depends on the context of the configure block.

To use configure blocks at the job or view level, the configure DSL method must be used. Here the root element is passed in. For free-style jobs that is <project>, but for other job types the name of the root element differs, e.g. <maven2-moduleset> for Maven projects.

job('example-1') {
    configure { node ->
        // node represents <project>
    }
}

mavenJob('example-2') {
    configure { node ->
        // node represents <maven2-moduleset>
    }
}

listView('example') {
    configure { node ->
        // node represents <hudson.model.ListView>
    }
}

Several DSL methods define their own configure methods, so that the XML can be manipulated e.g. to add elements which are not supported by the DSL.

job('example') {
    scm {
        git {
            remote {
                url('git@server:account/repo1.git')
            }
            configure { node ->
                // node represents <hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM>
            }
        }
    }
}

Other DSL elements allow configure blocks to be used directly without a configure method.

job('example') {
    steps {
        gradle('build', '', true) { node ->
            // node represents <hudson.plugins.gradle.Gradle>
        }
    }
}

The configure method can be stated multiple times and configure blocks are run in the order they are provided.

See the API Viewer for details about the configure blocks supported by DSL methods.

This article provides a step-by-step tutorial on how to create a configure block.

Transforming XML

All standard documentation for Node applies here, but transforming XML via Node is no fun, and quite ugly. The general Groovy use-cases are to consume this structure or build it up via NodeBuilder. Use the samples below to help navigate the Jenkins XML, but keep in mind that the actual syntax is Groovy syntax. See Processing XML for more information about manipulating XML with Groovy.

Things to keep in mind:

  • All queries (methodMissing or find) assume that a NodeList is being returned, so if you need a single Node get the first element, e.g. [0]
  • + adds siblings, so once we have one node, you can keep adding siblings, but will need an initial peer to add to.
  • Children can be easily accessed if they exist, if they don't exist you have to append them. This means accessing deep trees is laborious.
  • Groovy key words (e.g. switch), methods each object inherits (e.g. properties) and element names containing operators (e.g. .) must be put into quotes:
configure {
    it / 'properties' / 'com.example.Test' {
        'switch'('on')
    }
}

To ease navigation, two key operators have been overridden. Try to use them as much as possible:

  • / - finds a child node by name, always returning the first child. If no child exists, one will be created. E.g. project / description will find the description node, creating it if it doesn't exist. If attributes are specified, it will find the first child which carries those attributes. It has a very low precedence in the order of operation, so you need to wrap parenthesis around some operations.
  • << - appends as a child. If a Node is provided, it is directly added. A string is created as a node. A closure is processed like a NodeBuilder, allowing many nodes to be appended.

Note that these operators are not available when Jenkins security is enabled and the DSL script is running in the restricted sandbox, use the Node API instead.

Reusable Configure Blocks

To reuse a configure block for many jobs, the configure block can be refactored into a helper function.

def switchOn = {
    it / 'properties' / 'com.example.Test' {
        'switch'('on')
    }
}

job('example-1') {
    configure switchOn
}

job('example-2') {
    configure switchOn
}

To create a reusable, parametrized configure block, the configure block can be recreated in a parametrized function.

Closure switchOnOrOff(String value) {
    return {
        it / 'properties' / 'com.example.Test' {
            'switch'(value)
        }
    }
}

job('example-1') {
    configure switchOnOrOff('on')
}

job('example-2') {
    configure switchOnOrOff('off')
}

To reuse a configure block for many scripts, the configure block can be moved to a helper class.

package helpers

class JobHelper {
    static Closure switchOnOrOff(String value) {
        return {
            it / 'properties' / 'com.example.Test' {
                'switch'(value)
            }
        }
    }
}

In the job script you can then import the helper method and use it create several matrix jobs.

import static helpers.JobHelper.switchOnOrOff

job('example-1') {
    configure switchOnOrOff('on')
}

job('example-2') {
    configure switchOnOrOff('off')
}

Troubleshooting

ConcurrentModificationException

If you are getting a ConcurrentModificationException when using the configure block, the XML element that you are trying to generate might have a conflict with other (possibly undocumented and internal) DSL method names. To avoid this, you can use the closure's delegate variable.

Below is an example of a configure block that is trying to generate <label>my-label</label>. The label element is conflicting with the label DSL method.

job('example') {
    configure { project ->
        project << foo {
            bar {
                delegate.label('my-label') // use the delegate variable here
            }
        }
    }
}

Append (<<) Not Working With Attributes

The behavior of the / operator changes when specifying attributes on the right side. In this case the / does not only find or create the element on the right side of the operator, but also replaces children and attributes of the node on the left side with children and attributes from the node on the right side.

The following example demonstrates the problem:

job('example') {
    configure {
        it / scm(class: 'org.MyScm') << 'aChild' {
            serverUrl('http://example.org/product-a')
        }
        it / scm(class: 'org.MyScm') << 'aChild' {
            serverUrl('http://example.org/product-b')
        }
    }
}

It will not generate two aChild elements within the scm element, but only one since the second / operator will replace the content appended above. The outcome looks like this:

<project>
   <scm class='org.MyScm'>
        <aChild>
            <serverUrl>http://example.org/product-a</serverUrl>
        </aChild>
    </scm>
</project>

To avoid the problem, the selected node can be assigned to a variable, so that the / operator will only be used once:

job('example') {
    configure {
        def scm = it / scm(class: 'org.MyScm')
        scm << 'aChild' {
            serverUrl('http://example.org/product-a')
        }
        scm << 'aChild' {
            serverUrl('http://example.org/product-b')
        }
    }
}

This change leads to the desired result:

<project>
    <scm class='org.MyScm'>
        <aChild>
            <serverUrl>http://example.org/product-a</serverUrl>
        </aChild>
        <aChild>
            <serverUrl>http://example.org/product-b</serverUrl>
        </aChild>
    </scm>
</project>

See also JENKINS-41958.

Samples

Here is an (inelegant) configure block which may explain what Groovy sees, e.g.

configure {
    // "it" is a groovy.util.Node
    //    representing the job's config.xml's root "project" element.
    // anotherNode is also groovy.util.Node
    //    obtained with the overloaded "/" operator
    //    on which we can call "setValue(...)"
    def aNode = it
    def anotherNode = aNode / 'blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding'
    anotherNode.setValue('true')

    // You can chain these steps,
    //    but must add wrapping parenthesis
    //    because the "/" has a very low precedence (lower than the ".")
    (it / 'blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding').setValue('true')
}

Some of the sample here have been integrated into the DSL over time. It's highly recommended to use a DSL command if available.

For brevity, the samples show only the part of the job configuration that is relevant for the shown configure block. To get a runnable DSL script, further methods have to be added, like setting the job's name by using name().

Add permissions

Configure block:

job('example') {
    configure { project ->
        def matrix = project / 'properties' / 'hudson.security.AuthorizationMatrixProperty' {
            permission('hudson.model.Item.Configure:jill')
            permission('hudson.model.Item.Configure:jack')
        }
        matrix.appendNode('permission', 'hudson.model.Run.Delete:jryan')
    }
}

Result:

<project>
    <properties>
        <hudson.security.AuthorizationMatrixProperty>
            <permission>hudson.model.Item.Configure:jill</permission>
            <permission>hudson.model.Item.Configure:jack</permission>
            <permission>hudson.model.Run.Delete:jryan</permission>
        </hudson.security.AuthorizationMatrixProperty>
    </properties>
</project>

DSL:

job('example') {
    authorization {
        permission(Permissions.ItemConfigure, 'jill')
        permission(Permissions.ItemConfigure, 'jack')
        permission(Permissions.RunDelete, 'jryan')
    }
}

Configure Log Rotator Plugin

Configure block:

job('example') {
    configure { project ->
        // Doesn't take into account existing node
        project << logRotator {
            daysToKeep(-1)
            numToKeep(10)
            artifactDaysToKeep(-1)
            artifactNumToKeep(-1)
        }

        // Alters existing value
        (project / logRotator / daysToKeep).value = 2
    }
}

Result:

<project>
    <logRotator>
        <daysToKeep>2</daysToKeep>
        <numToKeep>10</numToKeep>
        <artifactDaysToKeep>-1</artifactDaysToKeep>
        <artifactNumToKeep>-1</artifactNumToKeep>
    </logRotator>
</project>

Configure Post Build Sonar Task

In order to trigger a Sonar analysis as a Post Build Task in your job you can use the following code. The requirements are:

  • Have a Sonar Server installed somewhere.
  • Have installed the Sonar plugin in Jenkins.
  • Configured access to the Sonar Server in Jenkins (Jenkins >> Manage Jenkins >> configure >> Sonar)

Configure block:

job('example') {
    configure { project ->
        project / publishers << 'hudson.plugins.sonar.SonarPublisher' {
            jdk('(Inherit From Job)')
            branch()
            language()
            mavenOpts()
            jobAdditionalProperties()
            settings(class: 'jenkins.mvn.DefaultSettingsProvider')
            globalSettings(class: 'jenkins.mvn.DefaultGlobalSettingsProvider')
            usePrivateRepository(false)
        }
    }
}

Result:

<project>
    <publishers>
        <hudson.plugins.sonar.SonarPublisher>
            <jdk>(Inherit From Job)</jdk>
            <branch/>
            <language/>
            <mavenOpts/>
            <jobAdditionalProperties/>
            <settings class="jenkins.mvn.DefaultSettingsProvider"/>
            <globalSettings class="jenkins.mvn.DefaultGlobalSettingsProvider"/>
            <usePrivateRepository>false</usePrivateRepository>
        </hudson.plugins.sonar.SonarPublisher>
    </publishers>

Configure Post Build Artifactory Task

In order to publish the result of your job into an Artifactory Repository as a Post Build Task you can use the following code. The requirements are:

  • Have an Artifactory Repository installed somewhere.
  • Have installed the Artifactory plugin in Jenkins.
  • Configured access to the Artifactory Repository in Jenkins (Jenkins >> Manage Jenkins >> configure >> Artifactory)

Once the Artifactory Repository is configured you will need to get the "artifactoryName" property which will be necessary to properly configure your jobs. This property is the "serverId" input element found in the configuration page. It is an hidden element.

Configure block:

job('example') {
    configure { project ->
        project / publishers << 'org.jfrog.hudson.ArtifactoryRedeployPublisher' {
            details {
                artifactoryUrl('http://artifactory.server.com/artifactory')
                artifactoryName('925330@138764814') // <= You will need to change that to fit your setup
                repositoryKey('libs-release-local')
                snapshotsRepositoryKey('libs-snapshot-local')
            }
            deployBuildInfo(false)
            deployArtifacts(true)
            evenIfUnstable(true)
        }
    }
}

Result:

<project>
    <publishers>
        <org.jfrog.hudson.ArtifactoryRedeployPublisher>
            <details>
                <artifactoryUrl>http://artifactory.server.com/artifactory</artifactoryUrl>
                <artifactoryName>920955330@1387638748614</artifactoryName>
                <repositoryKey>libs-release-local</repositoryKey>
                <snapshotsRepositoryKey>libs-snapshot-local</snapshotsRepositoryKey>
            </details>
            <deployBuildInfo>false</deployBuildInfo>
            <deployArtifacts>true</deployArtifacts>
            <evenIfUnstable>true</evenIfUnstable>
        </org.jfrog.hudson.ArtifactoryRedeployPublisher>
    </publishers>
</project>

Configure block:

job('example') {
    configure { project ->
        project / publishers << 'com.myyearbook.hudson.plugins.confluence.ConfluencePublisher' {
            siteName('confluence.company.com')
            attachArchivedArtifacts(false)
            buildIfUnstable(false)
            spaceName('TEST')
            pageName('Jenkins Confluence Publisher Integration Test')
            editors {
                'com.myyearbook.hudson.plugins.confluence.wiki.editors.PrependEditor' {
                    generator(class: 'com.myyearbook.hudson.plugins.confluence.wiki.generators.PlainTextGenerator') {
                        text('Jenkins Publisher Job Build Number: $BUILD_NUMBER')
                    }
                }
                'com.myyearbook.hudson.plugins.confluence.wiki.editors.AppendEditor' {
