Do manual build fail in Jenkins using shell script

问题:

I would like to mark a Jenkins build to fail on one scenario for example:

if [ -f "$file" ]
then
    echo "$file found."
else
    echo "$file not found."
    #Do Jenkins Build Fail
fi

Is it possible via Shell Script?

Answer: If we exit with integer 1, Jenkins build will be marked as failed. So I replaced the comment with exit 1 to resolve this.

回答1:

All you need to do is exit 1.

if [ -f "$file" ]
then
    echo "$file found."
else
    echo "$file not found."
    exit 1
fi

To fail a Jenkins build from .NET, you can use Environment.Exit(1).

Also, see How do I specify the exit code of a console application in .NET?.

To fail a Jenkins build from Windows PowerShell, you can use Steve's tip for C# as follows:

$theReturnCode = 1
[System.Environment]::Exit( $theReturnCode )

Notes;

1.Windows recycles exit codes higher than 65535. ( https://stackoverflow.com/a/31881959/242110 )

2.The Jenkins REST API has a '/stop' command, but that will cancel the build instead of actually failing it. ( https://jenkinsapi.readthedocs.org/en/latest/build.html )

3.Jenkins can also mark a build 'unstable', and this post ( https://stackoverflow.com/a/8822743/242110 ) has details on that solution.
