NullPointerException when using Credentials Binding Plugin
Change By:
p cowlinator
A NullPointerException with no stacktrace is experienced when trying to run the following pipeline:{code:java}pipeline {agent anystages {stage('stage usernameColonPassword') {steps {sh 'echo usernameColonPassword 1'withCredentials([usernameColonPassword(credentialsId: 'mysecret', variable: 'SECRET')]) {sh 'echo usernameColonPassword 2' }}}stage('stage usernamePassword') {steps {sh 'echo usernamePassword 3'withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'mysecret', passwordVariable: 'SECRET2')]) {sh 'echo usernamePassword 4' }}}}}{code}where "mysecret" is a credential with it's "kind" being "username and password".This exception causes the job to fail. Specifically, `usernameColonPassword` succeeds, while `usernamePassword` fails; `usernamePassword 4` is never printed to the log. This was the first time I have tried to run this script, so I have never observed this succeeding; for all I know, it has always failed. My workaround options are bad: either parse the password out of the `user:pass` format, or abandon the plugin. UPDATE: as mentioned in the comments, there is a better workaround. This ticket is now for removing or documenting the requirement for all arguments to be used, and creating a useful error message.

Re: NullPointerException when using Credentials Binding Plugin
I have found a resolution for this issue. By including the "usernameVariable" argument, the null reference exception goes away:
withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: 'mysecret', passwordVariable: 'SECRET2', usernameVariable: 'USELESS')]) {
Please no longer require arguments that may not be useful to the user; or, document that all arguments are required and print a more helpful error when they are not provided.
