Executing powershell command directly in jenkins pipeline

问题

Is it possible to call a PowerShell command directly in the pipelines groovy script? While using custom jobs in Jenkins I am able to call the command with the PowerShell Plugin. But there is no snippet to use this in the groovy script.

I also tried sh() but it seems that this command does not allow multiple lines and comments inside the command.

To call a PowerShell script from the Groovy-Script:

• you have to use the bat command.
• After that, you have to be sure that the Error Code (errorlevel) variable will be correctly returned (EXIT 1 should resulting in a FAILED job).
• Last, to be compatible with the PowerShell-Plugin, you have to be sure that $LastExitCode will be considered.
• I have notice that the 'powershell' is now available in pipeline, but since it have several issues I prefer this variant. Still waiting it works stabil. I actually have an issue with the 'dontKillMe' behavior.

For that porpuse I have written a little groovy method which could be integrate in any pipeline-script:

def PowerShell(psCmd) {
    psCmd=psCmd.replaceAll("%", "%%")
    bat "powershell.exe -NonInteractive -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command \"\$ErrorActionPreference='Stop';[Console]::OutputEncoding=[System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8;$psCmd;EXIT \$global:LastExitCode\""
}

[EDIT] I have added the UTF8 OutputEncoding: works great with Server 2016 and Win10.[/EDIT] [EDIT] I have added the '%' mask[/EDIT]

In your Pipeline-Script you could then call your Script like this:

stage ('Call Powershell Script')
{
    node ('MyWindowsSlave') {
        PowerShell(". '.\\disk-usage.ps1'") 
    }
}

The best thing with that method, is that you may call CmdLet without having to do this in the Script, which is best-praxis.

Call ps1 to define CmdLet, an then call the CmdLet

PowerShell(". '.\\disk-usage.ps1'; du -Verbose")

• Do not forget to use withEnv() an then you are better than fully compatible with the Powershell plugin.
• postpone your Script with . to be sure your step failed when the script return an error code (should be preferred), use & if you don't care about it.

Calling PowerShell scripts is now supported with powershell step as announced on Jenkins blog.

The documentation mentions it supports multiple lines scripts.

You can use the sh command like this:

sh """
    echo 'foo'
    # bar
    echo 'hello'
"""

Comments are supported in here.
