Thomas Fields commented on JENKINS-6467:
----------------------------------------
I'd love this feature as well please. I posted a similar issue a while back but
it's even even been assigned yet never mind fixed -
https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-9905
> Add a new envrironment varibale to get only the job's name in a matrix project
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JENKINS-6467
> URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-6467
> Project: Jenkins
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: matrix
> Affects Versions: current
> Reporter: rockeye
>
> The env var JOB_NAME, and its description in env-vars.html are confusing.
> In a simple project, the meaning and the description correspond, but in a
> matrix project, it is more complicated.
> If the main job's name is Foo, using a matrix with 2 parameters bar and baz,
> then JOB_NAME returns "Foo/bar=x,baz=y". This was the request JENKINS-1047.
> Is it possible to add another env var, like JOB_SHORT_NAME, or to be more
> coherent, use JOB_NAME to get the real name and JOB_IDENTIFIER for example to
> get the full description?
> Thanks
