Jenkins

Build License Wiki

Jenkins pipeline steps which provides SSH facilities such as command execution or file transfer for continuous delivery. It internally uses the library of Groovy SSH.

Remote

Most of the steps in this plugin require a common step variable called remote, which is Map of remote node settings such as user name, password and so on. Here is list of all possible keys that can be set.

Key Type Description

name

String, Mandatory

String, Mandatory

User name.

allowAnyHosts

boolean

If this is true, knownHosts is optional. Defaults to false.

knownHosts

String, Mandatory

Known hosts file for host key checking.

password

String, one of password, identity or identityFile is required

Password for password authentication.

Pipeline Steps

The following pipeline steps are available with the initial version of this plugin.

sshCommand

This step executes given command on remote node and responds with output.

Input

Key Type Description

remote

Remote, Mandatory, Refer to the Remote config for more details.

Host config to run the command on.

command

String, Mandatory

Shell command to run. Appending sudo is optional when sudo is true.

sudo

boolean, default: false.

Interactively supplies the password, not required for password less sudo commands.

failOnError

boolean, default: true.

If this is false, no job failure would occur though there is an error while running the command.

dryRun

boolean, default: false

If this is true, no actual connection or operation is performed.

Example

node {
  def remote = [:]
  remote.name = 'test'
  remote.host = 'test.domain.com'
  remote.user = 'root'
  remote.password = 'password'
  remote.allowAnyHosts = true
  stage('Remote SSH') {
    sshCommand remote: remote, command: "ls -lrt"
    sshCommand remote: remote, command: "for i in {1..5}; do echo -n \"Loop \$i \"; date ; sleep 1; done"
  }
}

sshScript

This step executes given script(file) on remote node and responds with output.

Input

Key Type Description

remote

Remote, Mandatory, Refer to the Remote config for more details.

Host config to run the command on.

script

String, Mandatory

Script file name from the workspace, current this doesn’t support script with arguments. For that option you would need to copy over the file to remote node and run it as a command.

failOnError

boolean, default: true.

If this is false, no job failure would occur though there is an error while running the command.

dryRun

boolean, default: false

If this is true, no actual connection or operation is performed.

Example

node {
  def remote = [:]
  remote.name = 'test'
  remote.host = 'test.domain.com'
  remote.user = 'root'
  remote.password = 'password'
  remote.allowAnyHosts = true
  stage('Remote SSH') {
    writeFile file: 'abc.sh', text: 'ls -lrt'
    sshScript remote: remote, script: "abc.sh"
  }
}

sshPut

Put a file or directory into the remote host.

Input

Key Type Description

remote

Remote, Mandatory, Refer to the Remote config for more details.

Host config to run the command on.

from

String, Mandatory

file or directory path from the workspace.

to

String, Mandatory

file or directory path on the remote node.

failOnError

boolean, default: true.

If this is false, no job failure would occur though there is an error while running the command.

dryRun

boolean, default: false

If this is true, no actual connection or operation is performed.

Example

node {
  def remote = [:]
  remote.name = 'test'
  remote.host = 'test.domain.com'
  remote.user = 'root'
  remote.password = 'password'
  remote.allowAnyHosts = true
  stage('Remote SSH') {
    writeFile file: 'abc.sh', text: 'ls -lrt'
    sshPut remote: remote, from: 'abc.sh', into: '.'
  }
}

sshGet

Remote, Mandatory, Refer to the Remote config for more details.

Host config to run the command on.

from

String, Mandatory

file or directory path from the remote node.

to

String, Mandatory

file or directory path on current worksapce.

failOnError

boolean, default: true.

If this is false, no job failure would occur though there is an error while running the command.

dryRun

boolean, default: false

If this is true, no actual connection or operation is performed.

Example

node {
  def remote = [:]
  remote.name = 'test'
  remote.host = 'test.domain.com'
  remote.user = 'root'
  remote.password = 'password'
  remote.allowAnyHosts = true
  stage('Remote SSH') {
    sshGet remote: remote, from: 'abc.sh', into: 'abc_get.sh', override: true
  }
}

sshRemove

Remove a file or directory on the remote host.

Input

Key Type Description

remote

Remote, Mandatory, Refer to the Remote config for more details.

Host config to run the command on.

path

String, Mandatory

file or directory path on the remote node

failOnError

boolean, default: true.

If this is false, no job failure would occur though there is an error while running the command.

dryRun

boolean, default: false

If this is true, no actual connection or operation is performed.

Example

node {
  def remote = [:]
  remote.name = 'test'
  remote.host = 'test.domain.com'
  remote.user = 'root'
  remote.password = 'password'
  remote.allowAnyHosts = true
  stage('Remote SSH') {
    sshRemove remote: remote, path: "abc.sh"
  }
}

Examples

withCredentials

An example how these steps can leverage withCredentails to read private key from Jenkins credentials store.

def remote = [:]
remote.name = "node-1"
remote.host = "10.000.000.153"
remote.allowAnyHosts = true

node {
    withCredentials([sshUserPrivateKey(credentialsId: 'sshUser', keyFileVariable: 'identity', passphraseVariable: '', usernameVariable: 'userName')]) {
        remote.user = userName
        remote.identityFile = identity
        stage("SSH Steps Rocks!") {
            writeFile file: 'abc.sh', text: 'ls'
            sshCommand remote: remote, command: 'for i in {1..5}; do echo -n \"Loop \$i \"; date ; sleep 1; done'
            sshPut remote: remote, from: 'abc.sh', into: '.'
            sshGet remote: remote, from: 'abc.sh', into: 'bac.sh', override: true
            sshScript remote: remote, script: 'abc.sh'
            sshRemove remote: remote, path: 'abc.sh'
        }
    }
}
