Reading file from Workspace in Jenkins with Groovy script

Question

I want to add a Build step with the Groovy plugin to read a file and trigger a build fail depending on the content of the file.

How can I inject the workspace file p

Answer 1

May this help to someone if they have the same requirement.

This will read a file that contains the Jenkins Job name and run them iteratively from one single job.

Please change below code accordingly in your Jenkins.

pipeline {
   agent any

   stages {
      stage('Hello') {
         steps {
             script{
            git branch: 'Your Branch name', credentialsId: 'Your crendiatails', url: ' Your BitBucket Repo URL '

##To read file from workspace which will contain the Jenkins Job Name ###
           
     def filePath = readFile "${WORKSPACE}/ Your File Location"                   

##To read file line by line ###
 
     def lines = filePath.readLines() 
      
##To iterate and run Jenkins Jobs one by one ####

                    for (line in lines) {                                            
                      build(job: "$line/branchName",
                        parameters:
                        [string(name: 'vertical', value: "${params.vert}"),
                        string(name: 'environment', value: "${params.env}"),
                        string(name: 'branch', value: "${params.branch}"),
                        string(name: 'project', value: "${params.project}")
                        ]
                    )
                        }  
                                       }
                    
         }
         }
      }
   }
