Jenkins Pipeline Syntax Guide 📚

Jenkins Pipeline syntax is a powerful tool for defining the structure and behavior of your CI/CD workflows. It provides a clear and concise way to write pipelines using either Declarative or Scripted syntax. Here's a quick breakdown:

🛠️ Declarative Pipeline Syntax

• Syntax Type: pipeline { ... }
• Key Features:
  • Simpler structure with stages and steps
  • Built-in support for environment, parameters, and triggers
  • Easier to read and write for basic workflows
• Example:

  pipeline {
    agent any
    stages {
      stage('Build') {
        steps {
          echo 'Building the application...'
        }
      }
    }
  }
  

  

📜 Scripted Pipeline Syntax

• Syntax Type: node { ... }
• Key Features:
  • More flexible for complex logic
  • Requires explicit script block for Groovy code
  • Supports advanced plugins and custom steps
• Example:

  node {
    stage('Build') {
      echo 'Building the application...'
    }
  }
