Changelog

Version 1.3.9 (June 7, 2019)

  • JENKINS-57162agent dockerfile  name/hash should incorporate build args.
  • JENKINS-57826post  on a stage  should handle catchError 's stageResult  as distinct from the status of the whole build.

Version 1.3.8 (April 15, 2019)

  • JENKINS-46354 - Don't skip all stages when retrying from top level.

Version 1.3.7 (March 20, 2019)

  • JENKINS-52850 - Support SSH private key credentials in environment.
  • JENKINS-56402 - Set build result to the logical result in post conditions.
  • JENKINS-56544failFast option for parallel stages no longer sets build status to ABORTED when other stages are aborted before entering their step execution.

Version 1.3.6 (March 6, 2019)

  • JENKINS-56405 - Don't require registry credentials if a registry URL is specified.

Version 1.3.5 (March 1, 2019)

  • JENKINS-52744 - Show a meaningful error when an environment variable value references an undefined variable.
  • JENKINS-49950 - Allow using Dockerhub credentials without having to specify a registry URL.
  • JENKINS-55476 - Don't trigger unsuccessful post condition for successful builds.
  • JENKINS-55459 - Make parallel stages that fail fast result in the build being marked as failed, not aborted.

Version 1.3.4.1 (January 8, 2019)

Version 1.3.4 (December 10, 2018) 

  • JENKINS-49997 - Add new unsuccessful post condition
  • JENKINS-53734 - Allow use of parallel within top-level sequential stages. 
  • JENKINS-54919 - Change processing of agent contents to allow references to newly defined parameter default values.
  • JENKINS-46894 - Add a new when condition for checking the build's cause.

Version 1.3.3 (November 27, 2018) 

  • Add REST API for Stage Restart functionality
  • JENKINS-54047 - Fix handling of ! expressions in environment variable resolution.
  • JENKINS-48556 - Prevent sporadic failure to recognize block-scoped steps, such as timestamps, as valid options.
  • JENKINS-50880 - Add beforeInput flag for when.
  • JENKINS-53558 - New option for setting failFast for all parallel stages in a Pipeline.

Version 1.3.2 (August 31, 2018) 

  • JENKINS-51027 - Include post conditions in Directive Generator correctly.
  • JENKINS-51932 - Include isRestartedRun in when Directive Generator.
  • JENKINS-51931 - Fix NPE if a when condition like allOf or anyOf has no children.
  • JENKINS-51872 - Fix tool dropdowns in Directive generator.
  • JENKINS-51383 - Properly catch/handle Throwable as well as Exception in stage execution.
  • JENKINS-51227 - Add quietPeriod Declarative option.
  • JENKINS-53316 - Switch to depending on jackson2-api plugin rather than shading everything Jackson/JSON-related ourselves.
  • JENKINS-52114 - Make post failure and success for a stage care about whether that stage has an error, rather than the full build's status. This allows a stage within a parallel that does not have any errors but completes after another parallel stage that does have an error (resulting in the build's status now being FAILURE) to fire its post success condition as would be expected.
    • NOTE: this does result in a small change in expected behavior. If you are setting currentBuild.result to FAILURE in a stage and then have a post failure condition for that same stage, without ever actually having a true error or step failure in the stage, the post failure for the stage in question will not fire. post failure conditions on a stage now fire when there's an error in the execution of the stage only, and post success conditions on a stage fire whenever there is no error in the execution of the stage.
    • No change in behavior for any other post condition, or for post outside of stages (including success and failure) is introduced by this.

  • JENKINS-43016 - Convert empty string label for agent to agent any in JSON.
  • JENKINS-46809 - Add support for nesting sequential groups of stages inside a stage.
  • JENKINS-45455 - Allow restarting a completed build from any stage which ran in that build, with all inputs (SCM, parameters, etc) preserved, and if the new preserveStashes option has been specified, any stashes from the original build available to the new build.
