I am getting started with Jenkins Pipeline. My pipeline has one simple step that is supposed to run on a different agent - like the "Restrict where this project can be run" option.
My problem is that it is running on master.
They are both Windows machines.
Here's my Jenkinsfile
:
pipeline {
agent {label 'myLabel'}
stages {
stage('Stage 1') {
steps {
echo pwd()
writeFile(file: 'test.txt', text: 'Hello, World!')
}
}
}
}
pwd()
prints C:\Jenkins\workspace\<pipeline-name>_<branch-name>-Q762JIVOIJUFQ7LFSVKZOY5LVEW5D3TLHZX3UDJU5FWYJSNVGV4Q
.
This folder is on master. This is confirmed by the presence of the test.txt
file.
I expected test.txt
to be created on the slave agent.
I can confirm that the pipeline finds the agent because the logs contain:
[Pipeline] node
Running on MyAgent in C:\Jenkins\workspace\<pipeline-name>_<branch-name>-Q762JIVOIJUFQ7LFSVKZOY5LVEW5D3TLHZX3UDJU5FWYJSNVGV4Q
But this folder does not exist on MyAgent, which seems related to the problem.
This question is similar to Jenkins pipeline not honoring agent specification , except that I'm not using the build
instruction so I don't think the answer applies.
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('Stage 1') {
steps {
echo "${env.NODE_NAME}"
}
}
stage('Stage 2') {
agent {label 'MyLabel'}
steps {
echo "${env.NODE_NAME}"
}
}
}
}
This prints the expected output - master
and MyAgent
. If this is correct, then why is the workspace located in a different folder on master instead of being on MyAgent?
here is an example
pipeline {
agent none
stages {
stage('Example Build') {
agent { label 'build-label' }
steps {
sh 'env'
sh ' sleep 8'
}
}
stage('Example Test') {
agent { label 'deploy-label' }
steps {
sh 'env'
sh ' sleep 5'
}
}
}
}
I faced similar issue and the following pipeline code worked for me (ie the file got created on the Windows slave instead of Windows master),
pipeline {
agent none
stages {
stage("Stage 1") {
steps {
node('myLabel'){
script {
writeFile(file: 'test.txt', text: 'Hello World!', encoding: 'UTF-8')
}
// This should print the file content on slave (Hello World!)
bat "type test.txt"
}
}
}
}
}
I'm debugging a completely unrelated issue and this fact was thrown in my face. Apparently the pipeline is processed in the built-in node (previously known as the master node), with the steps being forwarded to the agent.
So even though echo
runs on the agent, but pwd()
will run on the built-in node. You can do sh 'pwd'
to get the path on the agent.
