Jenkins Build error - groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: fileLoader for class: groovy.lang.Binding

Viewed 10743

Objective: we have a file in our application folder named as JenkinsFile. From that File, we are trying to call a groovy script file which contains the pipeline script of Jenkins build and deploy. The groovy script file is in seperate GITLAB repository.

Jenkins file code:

#!groovy
@Library("usingALibrary") _

def COMMON_REPO       = 'GITLAB_URL'
def REDIRECTED_SCRIPT = 'buildJenkinsPipelineScript.groovy'
def CREDENTIALS_ID    = 'credentials'

def jenkinsFile
jenkinsFile = fileLoader.fromGit(REDIRECTED_SCRIPT, COMMON_REPO, 'master', CREDENTIALS_ID, 'maven')
try{
    jenkinsFile.start()
}
catch(NullPointerException e)
{
    echo "Script threw a NullPointerException but it will be omitted."
}

Problem:

The error that we get while building in jenkins is:

First time build. Skipping changelog.
[Pipeline] Start of Pipeline
[Pipeline] End of Pipeline

You are missing File Loader Plugin

The plugin adds a global fileLoader DSL variable, which provides methods for loading Pipeline objects from remote sources.
