Jenkinsfile build log

Question

Is there any builtin variable that gives access to the text of the currently executing build?

I tried using something like currentBuild.log , currentBuild.buildLog but without any luck.

Answer 1

实际上可以使用currentBuild.rawBuild.log或更好（未弃用） currentBuild.rawBuild.getLog(100) （最后 100 行），参考：http ://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/model/运行.html#getLog-int-

Answer 2

I searched a lot for a solution to analyze the log.

• use rawBuild was not OK, because I want to execute my scripts in a sandbox without additional approvals
• use tee in the steps, that I want to analyse was not OK, because I don't want to modify previous steps, nor I don't want to have my whole log in RAM (and unfortunately I needed that on a Windows machine)

I found a solution inspired by Jesse Glicks answer:

• Under my.jenkins.url/pipeline-syntax/globals you can see, that the manager -variable allows you to analyse the log by using manager.logContains(regexp) or manager.getLogMatcher(regexp)
• So if you just want to check, that your log contains string myTestString you can just call manager.logContains('.*myTestString.*')
• If you want to get some information from the first matching line you can use manager.getLogMatcher(regexp)

Unfortunately I found no way to analyze the whole log ( getLogMatcher returns only the first matching line Matcher). So I see currently no way to eg count how often a log file contains a special string.

Not currently. (Properties of currentBuild are documented under Snippet Generator » Global Variables by the way.)

It could be implemented, fairly easily, though it would not scale well with huge builds. JENKINS-28119 would provide a more scalable solution to what I am guessing your underlying request is.

由于 Jenkins 为您提供了BUILD_URL ，您可以下载它：

sh('wget -q --no-check-certificate -O build.log ' + BUILD_URL + 'consoleText')
