I have a jenkins job that has a shell step with following commands. It runs great!
sudo yum install python36
virtualenv -p python3 test
source test/bin/activate
<some other command>
Now I want to make this into a pipeline. How do I write the same in groovy? I tried using syntax like this but it fails:
stage('Test') {
steps {
sh 'sudo yum install python36'
sh 'virtualenv -p python3 test'
}
}
In order to to execute multiple shell commands you need to wrap them in a pair of three single quotes ''':
stage('Test') {
steps {
sh '''
sudo yum install python36
virtualenv -p python3 test
'''
}
}
And if your shell commands container GStrings like ${some_str} use double quotes:
stage('Test') {
steps {
sh """
sudo yum install ${some_package}
virtualenv -p python3 test
"""
}
}
