Baptiste Mathus created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-42688 Provide a way to enable a post/* to run only under some context Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Andrew Bayer Components: pipeline-model-definition-plugin Created: 2017/Mar/11 2:30 PM Priority: Minor Reporter: Baptiste Mathus Problem: If you want to only send out notifications in a post/failure block for non pull-requests, you have currently to use the script block. Maybe a solution could be to allow when inside post/* (in the example below, having a way to express a default when would probably help make this more concise) Example: post { failure { script { if (env.CHANGE_ID == null) { mail to: NOTIFICATION_TARGET, subject: "FAILURE: ${currentBuild.fullDisplayName}", body: "Boo, we failed. $BUILD_URL" } } } unstable { script { if (env.CHANGE_ID == null) { mail to: NOTIFICATION_TARGET, subject: "UNSTABLE: ${currentBuild.fullDisplayName}", body: "Huh, we're unstable. $BUILD_URL" } } } changed { script { if (env.CHANGE_ID == null && currentBuild.result == null) { // and JENKINS-41060 mail to: NOTIFICATION_TARGET, subject: "BACK TO SUCCESS: ${currentBuild.fullDisplayName}", body: "Yay! $BUILD_URL" } } } } Illustration of what could be used (WARNING: do not copy paste below if you just found that JIRA ) Expressing the when each time post { failure { mail to: NOTIFICATION_TARGET, subject: "FAILURE: ${currentBuild.fullDisplayName}", body: "Boo, we failed. $BUILD_URL" when { _expression_ { env.CHANGE_ID == null } } } unstable { mail to: NOTIFICATION_TARGET, subject: "UNSTABLE: ${currentBuild.fullDisplayName}", body: "Huh, we're unstable. $BUILD_URL" when { _expression_ { env.CHANGE_ID == null } } } ... } Expressing the when as a default for every post/* blocks Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.3.0#73011-sha1:3c73d0e) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Issues" group.
