IDE Setup To Work With Jenkinsfile

Intellij

for more information

• Create a file called Jenkinsfile in the root folder of project
• Open that project in Intellij IDE
• Associate Jenkinsfile in Intellij as groovy
• Tips to associate Jenkinsfile in Intellij
• Intellij IDEA - Preferences - Editor - File Types - select groovy from Recognized File Type - select + from Registered Patterns and add Jenkifile init - save
• Configure Groovy SDK to enable autocompletion in Jenkinsfile
• Use pipeline.gdsl to have Pipeline syntax autocompletion in Jenkinsfile
• process to get pipeline.gdsl follow below steps
• install Jenkins and install pipeline plugins
• create a pipeline job - save that job
• access the job url (http://localhost:8080/job/pipeline-job-you-just-created/pipeline-syntax/)
• click on IntelliJ IDEA GDSL - copy that content
• place pipeline.gdsl somewhere in src folder in your project so that it’s recognized properly
• add pipeline.gdsl to .gitignore to reduce noise in the repo

If the autocompletion does not work, follow steps

• Creating a folder /src/main/groovy, putting the file in there and marking it as a sources root (right click on the folder -> Mark directory as -> Sources Root) did the trick.
• File > New > Project from Existing Sources…), a message popped up: DSL descriptor file has been change and isn’t currently executed.
