Hi, I’m new to Gradle and the JVM in general - I’m only using it to write Groovy scripts to run on Jenkins. I have a script that I’m trying to put into a Gradle project purely so that I can check that it compiles and passed CodeNarc; I’d like to make this into a CI pipeline in the future, but offli…

I was able to get things to compile using a stripped down version of your yaml processing. I had to include the timestamper plugin. I don’t see that plugin in your example dependency output, is it missing from your yaml file? My test: $ cat build.gradle plugins { id 'groovy' id 'org.jenkin…

Hi, the default packaging of Jenkins plugins is jpi, so I guess your dependency declaration puts timestamper.jpi on the classpath. Can you try what happens if you add compile 'org.jenkins-ci.plugins:timestamper:1.8.10@jar' as a dependency? You may also want to checkout https://github.com/jenkin…

Thanks, @Stefan_Wolf ! That solves my problem - CodeNarc also works fine now.

Note, specifying that you want an artifact-only jar dependency will also cause the dependency to no longer pull in transitive dependencies (transitive will become false). You can force transitive=true for the dependency, but that will simply pull in more useless jpi files. The gradle-jpi-plugin men…

Thanks, @Chris_Dore - how should I declare Jenkins plugins as dependencies using that? (As I said, I’m very new to Gradle - thanks for your patience!)

To answer my own question, this seems to work: jenkinsPlugins group: 'org.jenkins-ci.plugins', name: 'timestamper', version: '1.8.10' Is that the correct syntax? I assume I don’t need the ext: 'jar'/@jar now?

Can you share what you’re doing to configure the dependencies?

Sure - I’m basically importing a YAML file from my Ansible configuration that contains a mapping of plugin name to version and converting that to GAV using Jenkins’ plugins API.

Sorry, I should have been clearer. I meant show the code that you already have that isn’t working.

Sure, here are what should be the most relevant bits: buildscript { repositories { maven { url '<local maven mirror>' } } dependencies { classpath group: 'org.yaml', name: 'snakeyaml', version: '1.21' classpath group: 'io.github.http-builder-ng', name: 'http-builder-ng-core', ver…

"Unable to resolve class" when compiling Jenkins Groovy script

I’m now trying to add these dependencies programmatically - I have a list of plugins in a YAML file elsewhere. Reading the YAML is fine, but how do I then add the dependencies? I’ve tried the method from this thread but it isn’t working. I seem to have the dependencies but now I’m getting my original import error again…
