I am trying in a pipeline to attach files to my notification mails.

How can I do that? An example would be nice.

email-ext uses Ant File Syntax

As for example usage:

emailext attachmentsPattern: '**/report.html', body: 'Find attachments', subject: 'test', to: '[email protected]'

Fluoroscope

attachementPattern does not accept all file path ?? for example ${workspace}/file.xml – Croissant

works as expected. another thing that is important in this context, is another boolean key/value 'attachLog: true' . not to be confused (as i did...) - the boolean is only for sending the build log of jenkins itself, rather than 'attachmentsPattern' which allow to customize based on Ant patterns – Midterm

def file_name = "file.txt" and calling attachmentsPattern: "${file_name}". its unable to call that file. please suggest – Lourdeslourie

if there are two files then? – Diamagnet

Hi @Khan, would you be able to write a pattern that matches both of them? – Fluoroscope

For example the all files in a folder reports, so can I do like **/reports/* – Diamagnet

The first start should be doubled unless you can provide a full path (then it matches all report directories in your working directory tree). Then you need a star at the end to pick all the files in the matched directories. EDIT: yeah, just like you edited. – Fluoroscope

Also you can add specific more than one file: attachmentsPattern: 'report.html, test.html,....' – Enfleurage

I am getting ERROR: Error accessing files to attach: Expecting Ant GLOB pattern, but saw '/tmp/output.text' ...... I want to attach file /tmp/output.text – Wanting

@AshishKarpe this pattern is relative to your workspace, you would need to do ../ as many times to get to the /, and then have the rest of it, for example ../../../../tmp/output.text – Fluoroscope

@Fluoroscope I tried to cp /tmp/output.text $WORKSPACE/ but my workspace is getting cleaned so getting error – Wanting
