I am trying to update an enviroment variable in TeamCity using Powershell script. However, it does not update the value of the variable. How can I do this?
Below is my current code which gets the currentBuildNumber fine:
$currentBuildNumber = "%env.currentBuildNumber%"
$newBuildNumber = ""
Write-Output $currentBuildNumber
If ($currentBuildNumber.StartsWith("%MajorVersion%") -eq "True")
{
$parts = $currentBuildNumber.Split(".")
$parts[2] = ([int]::Parse($parts[2]) + 1) + ""
$newBuildNumber = $parts -join "."
}
Else
{
$newBuildNumber = '%MajorVersion%.1'
}
//What I have tried
$env:currentBuildNumber = $newBuildNumber
Write-Host "##teamcity[env.currentBuildNumber '$newBuildNumber']"
Write-Host "##teamcity[setParameter name='currentBuildNumber' value='$newBuildNumber']"
Try
"##teamcity[setParameter name='env.currentBuildNumber' value='$newBuildNumber']"
(note the env. prefix in the name)
Also, you can try to increase the PowerShell std out column default (80 using TeamCity's command runner). If your service message is longer than that, then TeamCity will fail to parse it.
if ($env:TEAMCITY_VERSION) {
$host.UI.RawUI.BufferSize = New-Object System.Management.Automation.Host.Size(8192,50)
}

$global:af_fp = "C:\Path\to\folder\"

}
function-name | ConvertTo-CSV -NoTypeInformation | Add-Content -Path $($af_fp)
Above is the generalized (and abbreviated) script contents for a powershell script.
Every time I run the script in this way, I get the following error:
Add-Content : Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\timeuser\Documents\'.
At C:\Users\timeuser\Documents\get_software.ps1:231 char:51

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (C:\Users\timeuser\Documents\:String) [Add-Content], DirectoryNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : GetContentWriterDirectoryNotFoundError,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.AddContentCommand
When I run
Get-Variable -Scope global
after running the script and seeing the error, the variable af_fp contains exactly the information I am seeking for the file name, however, the error shows the variable contents ending in ':String'.
To confuse me even more, if I comment out the lines containing '$global:...' and re-run the same script, IT ACTUALL RUNS AND SAVES THE FILE USING THE LINE
function-name | ConvertTo-CSV -NoTypeInformation | Add-Content -Path $($af_fp)
AS INTENDED. Of course, I had to run the script and watch it error first, then re-run the script with the global variable declaration and update commented out for it to actually work. I want to run the script ONCE and still get the same results.
FYI, I am a complete noob to powershell, but very familiar with the concept of variable scope.....but why is this global not working when initially created and updated, but then work the second time around, when, as far as I can tell, the CONTENT AND SCOPE of the global remains the same...…. any assistance to finding a solution to this small issue would be greatly appreciated; I have tried sooooo may different methods from inquiries through here and on Google...…..
EDIT: not sure why this will matter, because the script ran before as intended when I explicitly typed the parameter for -Path as 'C:\path\to\file'. The ONLY CHANGES MADE to the original, working script (below) were my inclusion of the global variable declaration, the update to the contents of the global variable (near the end of the function), and the attempt to use the global variable as the parameter to -Path, that is why I omitted the script:

IGNORE FORMATTING PLEASE- HAD TROUBLE MAKING INDENTS CORRECTLY FROM COPY-PASTE AND RESTRICTIONS ON SITE FOR CODE BLOCKS.....
NOTE: the ONLY changes I made, that I am asking about, are the global declaration, the global variable update in the function, and the attempt to use the global variable for the -Path parameter....script otherwise runs and will even run WITH THE LAST LINE AS IS if I ran it and errored the first time.....not sure how the addition script will help in any way, shape, or form!
With a little effort, Nasir's solution worked! HOWEVER, I ran across a sample file that had a way of adding to a parameter that inspired me to make a change to my ORIGINAL, that also worked: remove global variable from script entirely and add this code the very end:
$file_suffix = '_AF.csv'
Get-Software | ConvertTo-CSV -NoTypeInformation | Add-Content -Path $env:COMPUTERNAME$file_suffix
In this way, I was able to accomplish exactly what I was setting out to do! Thanks Nasir for your response as well! I was able to also make that work as intended!
Global variables are generally frowned upon, since they often lead to poor scripts, with hard to debug issues.
It seems like your function returns some stuff, which you need to write to a file, the name of which is also generated by the same function. You can try something like this:
function function-name {
param($PathPrefix)
#do things
[pscustomobject]#{"DoThings_data" = $somevariablefromDoThings; "Filename" = "$($PathPrefix)$($variableFromDo_Things)_AF.csv"}
}
function-name -PathPrefix "C:\Path\to\folder\" | Foreach-Object { $_.DoThings_data | Export-Csv -Path $_.Filename -NoTypeInformation }
Or just have your function write the CSV data out and then return the data if you need to further process it outside the function.
Edit: this is just me extrapolating from partial code you have provided. To Lee_Dailey's point, yes, please provide more details.
I try to retrieve a string from a powershell script and use it in Jenkins file, in order to change the displayed version in SonarQube.
I started to implement functionality for taking the project version from package.json. Basically I give a Workspace directory as param and I ask for the full path if he finds a package.json in Workspace itself or in child folders. If the file is found, parse it and return version:
updateDisplayedVersionInSonar.ps1
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
[string]$Workspace
)
try{
$packageFullPath = ""
$pcgVersion = ""
Get-ChildItem -Path ${Workspace} -Filter package.json
-Recurse -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -Force | % {$packageFullPath = $_.FullName}
try {
Test-Path $packageFullPath -PathType leaf
$json = Get-Content $packageFullPath | Out-String | ConvertFrom-Json
if($json.PSobject.Properties.Name -contains "version"){
$pcgVersion = $json.version
}
else{
$pcgVersion = "unknown"
}
Write-Output $pcgVersion
}
catch {
Write-Output "There is no package.json file!"
}
}
catch{
$ErrorMessage = $_.Exception.Message
write-host "An error has occured: ${ErrorMessage}"
exit 1
}
Now I want to use the version returned from ps script in a Jenkins file:
stage('SonarQube Frontend') {
environment {
sonarqubeScannerHome = tool name: 'SonarQube Scanner', type: hudson.plugins.sonar.SonarRunnerInstallation'
sonarQubeId = 'SonarQubeServer'
sonarProjectName = "\"SPACE ${REPOSITORY_NAME}\""
sonarProjectKey = "${REPOSITORY_NAME}"
testsPaths = 'app/myProject-ui/webapp/TEST/unit/utils'
testExecutionReportPaths = 'app/myProject-ui/reports/sonar/TESTS-qunit.xml'
javascriptLcovReportPaths = 'app/myProject-ui/reports/coverage/lcov.info'
}
steps {
withSonarQubeEnv(env.sonarQubeId) {
withCredentials([[$class: 'UsernamePasswordMultiBinding', credentialsId: sonarQubeId, usernameVariable: 'SONAR_USER', passwordVariable: 'SONAR_PASSWORD']]) {
script{
sonarProperties = " -Dsonar.projectName=${env.sonarProjectName}" +
" -Dsonar.projectKey=${env.sonarProjectKey}" +
" -Dsonar.login=${SONAR_USER}" +
" -Dsonar.password=${SONAR_PASSWORD}" +
" -Dsonar.sources=./" +
" -Dsonar.exclusions=**/*.java"
//some other conditions
//this line will be executed and i will see in Jenkins Console output the version found in package.json
powershell "powershell -File C:/Automation/updateDisplayedVersionInSonar.ps1 -Workspace '${env.WORKSPACE}/app'"
//I try to make it as a variable, but it will print "echo version here - null -" :(
pcgVersion = powershell "powershell -File C:/Automation/updateDisplayedVersionInSonar.ps1 -Workspace '${env.WORKSPACE}/app'"
echo "echo version here - ${pcgVersion} -"
//I want to use it here in order to be displayed the correct version of the app in Sonar
sonarProperties = sonarProperties + " -Dsonar.projectVersion= ${pcgVersion}"
}
bat "${env.sonarqubeScannerHome}/bin/sonar-scanner" + " -Dsonar.host.url=${SONAR_HOST_URL}" + sonarProperties
}
}
}
} //end of SonarQube Frontend stage
I tried the solution from How to execute powershell script from jenkins by passing parameters but without any result.
I tried also to do this way:
version = powershell(returnStdout: true, script:'powershell -File C:/SCP/Automation/updateDisplayedVersionInSonar.ps1 -Workspace "${env.WORKSPACE}"')
version = powershell(returnStdout: true, script:'C:/SCP/Automation/updateDisplayedVersionInSonar.ps1 -Workspace "${env.WORKSPACE}"')
I found quite a lot of examples of how to use Jenkins variable in Powershell, but not vice versa :(
What I am doing wrong? It is possible to achieve this?
Thank you!
You could use Jenkins Pipeline Utility instead.
def getPackageVersion() {
def package = readJSON file: '${env.WORKSPACE}/app/package.json'
echo package.version
return package.version
}
Then you should be able to access it like this.
def pcgVersion = getPackageVersion()
I am trying to build a custom script for URL monitoring. I am able to run the URL's from the file and enter the same in a logfile(named with time stamp).
Till here I have completed
Issue is when I compare the values from present(present timestamp) and previous logfile(previous timestamp).
This portion is not working fine. Please help me correct it.
Here is my code trying to compare value line by line from present logfile and previous logfile and run commands to generate output:
# New log is new logfile data
$Newlog = Get-Content $URLlogfile
$old_file = Dir C:\Scripts\logs | Sort CreationTime -Descending | Select Name -last 1
# Old log is Old logfile data
$oldlog = Get-Content $old_file -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Foreach($logdata in $Newlog) {
$url = ($logdata.Split(" "))[0]
$nodename = ($logdata.Split(" "))[1]
$statuscheck = ($logdata.Split(" "))[2]
$description = ($logdata.Split(" "))[3]
$statuscode = ($logdata.Split(" "))[4]
Foreach($log1data in $oldlog) {
$url1 = ($log1data.Split(" "))[0]
$nodename1 = ($log1data.Split(" "))[1]
$statuscheck1 = ($log1data.Split(" "))[2]
$description1 = ($log1data.Split(" "))[3]
$statuscode1 = ($log1data.Split(" "))[4]
While ($url = $url1) {
if ($statuscheck = $statuscheck1 ) {
write-output "output is same"
} elseif ($statuscheck = Fail) {
While ($statuscheck1 = Pass) {
write-output "$url is down at $nodename1- testing event sent"
}
} elseif ($statuscheck = Pass) {
While ($statuscheck1 = Fail) {
write-output "$url is up at $nodename1- testing event sent"
}
}
}
Break
}
}
#At end am clearing the old logs except present one
dir C:\Scripts\logs -recurse | where { ((get-date)-$_.creationTime).minutes -gt 3 } | remove-item -force
Per the comment from BenH, the following part of your code needs correcting as follows:
If ($url -eq $url1) {
if ($statuscheck -eq $statuscheck1 ) {
write-output "output is same"
} elseif ($statuscheck -eq 'Fail' -and $statuscheck1 -eq 'Pass') {
write-output "$url is down at $nodename1- testing event sent"
} elseif ($statuscheck -eq 'Pass' -and $statuscheck1 -eq 'Fail') {
write-output "$url is up at $nodename1- testing event sent"
}
}
Corrections:
In your comparison statements the = needs to be -eq. In PowerShell = always assigns a value.
In your comparison statements Pass and Fail need to be surrounded by single quotes so they are treated as strings (otherwise they are treated like function statements, for functions which don't exist).
I've replaced the While statements with If statements. I'm not sure what the intent of those was but I think they'd just get stuck in an infinite loop as the variable they test is never changed from within the loop.
I'm trying to create a Powershell script that will setup a brand new workspace in a temporary location, do a GetLatest on selected solutions/projects, and download the source code so that I can then trigger further build/versioning operations.
I think I have the script more or less right, but the problem is every time I run this, it tells me there were 0 operations... i.e. I already have the latest versions. This results in nothing at all being downloaded.
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

The "$/Client1/Project1" string smells. I would add a backtick before the dollar sign so it is not read as a variable or use single quotes.
Backtick
"`$/Client1/Project1"
Single quote
'$/Client1/Project1'
I have a PowerShell script that is intended to modify a web config transform as a pre-build event in a build definition. I've gotten it working for the most part, however when it goes to save the updated file I am getting access denied.
Is there a way to give the right access, without opening a window as this is done via the TFS build agent?
