How to check visualReport on Jenkins remotely

[Jun-Zhu-Trend]

Describe the bug
The image path is absolute path which is embedded when created, and when using Jenkins HTML report plugin, it cannot show the report well , how can I configure to show it on Jenkins server correctly ?

The path "href="C:\ci-l10n\workspace\I18N\Test\Jun_Win_Test\regression\base\VisualDiffGoogle\img1.png"" is that path on my jenkins node build machine.

Here is my configuration on Jenkins server:

I run command like below:
(cd <root folder where *.robot exists, ex:>C:\ci-l10n\workspace\I18N\Test\Jun_Win_Test\regression)
robot -d results -v images_dir:base .

Any ideas ?
thanks a lot for your help.

I use one alternative way to use another python script to update the report HTML by using relative path in the report HTML, and it works, like below:
"href=".\base\VisualDiffGoogle\img1.png"
Since it needs me to write another script to update the report manually, I am not sure whether there is a better way to generate the visualreport directly by using relative path inside it.

@Jun-Zhu-Trend Thanks for using the library.
I went through the code and it does look like absolute path is used for baseline folder. Could you please confirm if the actual and the diff images also contain absolute path in your local system?

@Jun-Zhu-Trend For the time being, instead of using your own script you can generate the report again with relative paths by using the following command instead,
reportgen --baseline=base --results=results . Just pass relative paths to baseline directory and results/output directory. This should solve the problem with absolute path. Let me know if this does it.

I just tried to genereate the report again after run with : reportgen --baseline=base --results=results .
it works,
thanks a lot.

by the way, to comment your question above:
please confirm if the actual and the diff images also contain absolute path in your local system?

Yes, all the path are generated with absolute path with command : robot -d results -v images_dir:base .
