transportRequestUploadFile

Description

Uploads a file to a Transport Request.

CTS upload is currently not supported. We are working on a new way to handle CTS uploads.

  • abapPackage - The ABAP package name of your application.
  • acceptUnixStyleLineEndings -
  • applicationDescription -
  • applicationId - The id of the application. Only for SOLMAN.
  • applicationName -
  • applicationUrl - The URL where to find the UI5 package to upload to the transport request. Only for RFC.
  • changeDocumentId - The id of the change document to that the transport request is bound to. Typically this value is provided via commit message in the commit history. Only for SOLMAN.
  • changeManagement/changeDocumentLabel - A pattern used for identifying lines holding the change document id.
  • changeManagement/changeManagement/transportRequestLabel - A pattern used for identifying lines holding the transport request id.
  • changeManagement/clientOpts - Additional options for cm command line client, e.g. JAVA_OPTS.
  • changeManagement/credentialsId - The id of the credentials to connect to the Solution Manager. The credentials needs to be maintained on Jenkins.
  • changeManagement/endpoint - The service endpoint, e.g. Solution Manager, ABAP System.
  • changeManagement/git/format - Specifies what part of the commit is scanned. By default the body of the commit message is scanned.
  • changeManagement/git/from - The starting point for retrieving the change document id.
  • changeManagement/git/to - The end point for retrieving the change document id.
  • changeManagement/rfc/developmentClient - AS ABAP client number. Only for RFC.
  • changeManagement/rfc/developmentInstance - AS ABAP instance number. Only for RFC.
  • changeManagement/rfc/docker/envVars -
  • changeManagement/rfc/docker/image -
  • changeManagement/rfc/docker/options -
  • changeManagement/rfc/docker/pullImage -
  • changeManagement/type - Defines where the transport request is created, e.g. SAP Solution Manager, ABAP System.
  • codePage - The code page of your ABAP system. E.g. UTF-8.
  • failOnWarning -
  • filePath - The path of the file to upload.
  • script - The common script environment of the Jenkinsfile running. Typically the reference to the script calling the pipeline step is provided with the this parameter, as in script: this. This allows the function to access the commonPipelineEnvironment for retrieving, e.g. configuration parameters.
  • transportRequestId - The id of the transport request to upload the file.
  • verbose - Provides additional details. Only for RFC.

Step configuration

We recommend to define values of step parameters via config.yml file.

In following sections of the config.yml the configuration is possible:

parameter general step/stage
abapPackage X
acceptUnixStyleLineEndings X
applicationDescription X
applicationId X
applicationName X
applicationUrl X
changeDocumentId
changeManagement/changeDocumentLabel X X
changeManagement/changeManagement/transportRequestLabel X X
changeManagement/clientOpts X X
changeManagement/credentialsId X X
changeManagement/endpoint X X
changeManagement/git/format X X
changeManagement/git/from X X
changeManagement/git/to X X
changeManagement/rfc/developmentClient X X
changeManagement/rfc/developmentInstance X X
changeManagement/rfc/docker/envVars X X
changeManagement/rfc/docker/image X X
changeManagement/rfc/docker/options X X
changeManagement/rfc/docker/pullImage X X
changeManagement/type X X
codePage X
failOnWarning
filePath X
script
transportRequestId
verbose X

Dependencies

The step depends on the following Jenkins plugins

The kubernetes plugin is only used if running in a kubernetes environment. Transitive dependencies are omitted.

The list might be incomplete.

Consider using the ppiper/jenkins-master docker image. This images comes with preinstalled plugins.

The step is configured using a customer configuration file provided as resource in an custom shared library.

@Library('piper-lib-os@master') _

// the shared lib containing the additional configuration
// needs to be configured in Jenkins
@Library('foo@master') __

// inside the shared lib denoted by 'foo' the additional configuration file
// needs to be located under 'resources' ('resoures/myConfig.yml')
prepareDefaultValues script: this,
                             customDefaults: 'myConfig.yml'

Example content of 'resources/myConfig.yml' in branch 'master' of the repository denoted by 'foo':

general:
  changeManagement:
    changeDocumentLabel: 'ChangeDocument\s?:'
    cmClientOpts: '-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=<path to truststore>'
    credentialsId: 'CM'
    type: 'SOLMAN'
    endpoint: 'https://example.org/cm'
    git:
      from: 'HEAD~1'
      to: 'HEAD'
      format: '%b'

The properties configured in section 'general/changeManagement' are shared between all change managment related steps.

The properties can also be configured on a per-step basis:

  [...]
  steps:
    transportRequestUploadFile:
      applicationId: 'FOO'
      changeManagement:
        type: 'SOLMAN'
        endpoint: 'https://example.org/cm'
        [...]

The parameters can also be provided when the step is invoked. For examples see below.

Exceptions

  • IllegalArgumentException:
  • If the change id is not provided (SOLMAN only).
  • If the transport request id is not provided.
  • If the application id is not provided (SOLMAN only).
  • If the file path is not provided.
  • AbortException:
  • If the upload fails.

Example

// SOLMAN
transportRequestUploadFile(
  script: this,
  changeDocumentId: '001',   // typically provided via git commit history
  transportRequestId: '001', // typically provided via git commit history
  applicationId: '001',
  filePath: '/path',
  changeManagement: [
    type: 'SOLMAN'
    endpoint: 'https://example.org/cm'
  ]
)
// CTS

// NOTE: CTS upload currently not supported!

transportRequestUploadFile(
  script: this,
  transportRequestId: '001', // typically provided via git commit history
  filePath: '/path',
  changeManagement: [
    type: 'CTS'
    endpoint: 'https://example.org/cm'
  ]
)
