+1 online pipeline syntax generator. The online documentation is such a pain, page too long to scroll, no type or any example, no freaking idea what the hell the value shape must be sometime. You kind of need deep knowledge of Java/Jenkins Groovy to have a slight idea of what the value are or make reference too.
When you see crap documentation like this, you known the documentation is a failure, oh look great I should put a value of string! what value, what effect, is it a path or something, go figure, what does the name actually does?!? this is pretty bad, I almost always need to find example, the doc is useless: [cid:[email protected]] Or the so verbose description of script! [cid:[email protected]] I wish I could make a better pun, but I don’t see anything to add 😉 Who ever made the documentation layout and descriptions (or if you prefer the lack of both) did a poor job. The collapsing on a single page make navigation of it a nightmare too. Live search maybe, link to an actual page with actual doc for the function/method/options. Take a look at Qt/Microsoft C# documentation or many other online. That would actually help people. And like the comment above, why is this not online available to all? My 2 cents about the snippets/doc, you might disagree, but figuring out the command should not be the challenge of using a tools. From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Jeremy Mordkoff Sent: February 9, 2021 9:45 AM To: Jenkins Users <[email protected]> Subject: Permissions to see pipeline syntax What permission(s) do I need to grant to a new user in order for them to see the pipeline syntax option? I am a full admin and I see it. They are authenticated but they only have rights to start and stop jobs right now. I created a job for them that invokes a JenkinsFile and they are busy writing the script. But at the moment they are flying blind since they cannot see the pipeline syntax page and the snippet generator. Perhaps there is a standalone instance of this function somewhere? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
