How do I display a hyperlink (weblink) in hudson/jenkins build output console?
What I'm trying to achieve is, during a hudson/jenkins build based on certain condition, I would like to display a hyperlink.
When a user click on that link, it should open a new browser window and show the page.
Is there a plugin to do this? Any suggestions please?
If you enter, for example:
echo 'http://example.com'
in a Build step Execute shell → Command the address will be hyperlinked in the Console Output, though not with target="_blank"
. But middle-clicking on it opens it in a new tab or window – depending on your browser preferences.
When using a (system) groovy script or Jenkins job pipeline (without sandbox) you may want to try e.g.:
import hudson.console.ModelHyperlinkNote
println hudson.console.ModelHyperlinkNote.encodeTo('http://example.com', 'example')
Please find the full API of hudson.console.ModelHyperlinkNote
