Title: Message Title

Fadi Farah created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-34441 Accept Jenkins environment variable in properties file path Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Oleg Nenashev Components: envinject-plugin Created: 2016/Apr/25 7:28 PM Priority: Minor Reporter: Fadi Farah So, I have a properties file called version.properties in the root dir of the project, and I'm trying to read an env var from it and apply it in the build. In the current situation when I check "Prepare an environment for the run" then put "version.properties" in the "Properties File Path" it gives me the following error: [EnvInject] - Loading node environment variables. [EnvInject] - Preparing an environment for the build. [EnvInject] - Keeping Jenkins system variables. [EnvInject] - Keeping Jenkins build variables. [EnvInject] - [ERROR] - The given properties file path 'version.properties' doesn't exist. [EnvInject] - [ERROR] - Missing file path was resolved from pattern 'version.properties' . So, in order to get the build not to fail is by specifying the full workspace path; so something like /var/lib/jenkins/<JOB_NAME>/version.properties Instead of typing the full workspace path, I was trying to do the following "$WORKSPACE/version.properties" but unfortunately that results in the same as above because it literally looks for "$WORKSPACE/version.properties" instead of translating what $WORKSPACE is.
