Abort current build from pipeline in Jenkins

Question

I have a Jenkins pipeline which has multiple stages, for example:

node(\"nodename\") {
  stage(\"Checkout\") {
    git ....
  }
  stage(\"Check Preconditions         


        

Answer 1

The thing that we use is:

try {
 input 'Do you want to abort?'
} catch (Exception err) {
 currentBuild.result = 'ABORTED';
 return;
}

The "return" at the end makes sure that no further code is executed.
