<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39479258/using-curl-to-trigger-a-build-on-jenkins#>
I am trying to write a bash script to start a build on Jenkins. It works
but the problem I am having is with passing parameter values.
I have: curl -X POST $Server -d token='MyToken' --data-urlencode json='{
... }' and I want to replace the json='{...}' with a variable as in
json=$Params where my json string is '{"parameters": [{"name":"USER",
"value":"Tim"}]}'
This json string works when I specify it on the command line but not
however when I put it in a variable. With the variable I get a stack trace
and html - several screens worth.
When assigning to a variable a have tried several things though currently I
have Params="{\"parameters\": [{\"name\":\"USER\", \"value\":\"Tim\"}]}"
It appears that it can't parse my json when I pass it through $Params but
can in the other case.
What I am trying to do is get the user name passed in from a perforce
trigger, then get that users email address. I have that working assigning
to a variable @UserEMail. I then want to pass that in the json value. I
haven't gotten to the point of replacing "Tim" with the value from
@UserEmail.
Thank you for any help.
