Tool Environment

Build Status Contributors GitHub release Jenkins Plugin Installs

Introduction

Tool environment plugin lets you use "tools" in unusual ways, such as from shell scripts.

See JENKINS-4532 for motivation.

Some screenshots are better than a long discussion:

  1. This is what you define in the Jenkins configuration screen:
    Jenkins configuration screen

  2. This is how you use the plugin in a job:
    Jenkins job configuration screen

  3. This is what you get:
    Jenkins console output

Compared to Custom Tools Plugin the advantage is that you can use the tool in arbitrary ways, not just running an executable from it.
