Grouping and decorating groups of parameters in Jenkins

Question

I\'m writing a Jenkins pipeline job with quite a few parameters and I\'m looking for a way to visually group them together so they will be easier to understand

Answer 1

So, after much searching the web I finally found a plugin that does the trick. The Parameter Separator Plugin. The wiki page doesn't say how to make it work in a pipeline, but after some trial and error this is how I got it to work. I hope this is useful to others.

String sectionHeaderStyle = '''
    color: white;
    background: green;
    font-family: Roboto, sans-serif !important;
    padding: 5px;
    text-align: center;
'''

String separatorStyle = '''
    border: 0;
    border-bottom: 1px dashed #ccc;
    background: #999;
'''

properties([
    parameters([
        [
            $class: 'ParameterSeparatorDefinition',
            name: 'FOO_HEADER',
            sectionHeader: 'Foo Parameters',
            separatorStyle: separatorStyle,
            sectionHeaderStyle: sectionHeaderStyle
        ],
        string(
            name: 'FOO 1'
        ),
        string(
            name: 'FOO 2'
        ),
        string(
            name: 'FOO 3'
        ),
        [
            $class: 'ParameterSeparatorDefinition',
            name: 'BAR_HEADER',
            sectionHeader: 'Bar Parameters',
            separatorStyle: separatorStyle,
            sectionHeaderStyle: sectionHeaderStyle
        ],
        string(
            name: 'BAR 1'
        ),
        string(
            name: 'BAR 2'
        ),
        string(
            name: 'BAR 3'
        )
    ])
])

This is the result:

Edit:

I tested this with Jenkins 2.61, Pipeline Plugin 2.5 and the Parameter Separator Plugin 1.0
