We have a lot of Jenkins jobs that fail due to ill-formed yaml. Unfortunately, These often throw useless Java exceptions that are meaningless.
I would like to invoke a yaml checker/sanitizer on that yaml, BEFORE Jenkins starts parsing it. Does anyone know if a Plugin exists, or if there is another way to validate YAML before it is parsed? I've noticed that copying and pasting yaml from a text file into the Pipeline file can also cause the yaml to be ill-formed, so we need to catch that and display a useful error message, instead of a useless Java exception. I can't believe that Jenkins is so fragile that it crashes due to bad yaml. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
