Jenkinsfile Example with Parameterized Environment and Server Selection
This article presents a complete Jenkinsfile that defines choice parameters for selecting an environment and dynamically populates a server list using Groovy scripts, then demonstrates a simple pipeline stage that validates and echoes the chosen values, aborting the build if validation fails.
This article provides a complete Jenkinsfile example that defines choice parameters for selecting an environment (Dev, QA, Stage, Prod) and a corresponding server list, using Groovy scripts for dynamic values.
The pipeline includes an example stage that echoes the selected parameters, validates them, and aborts the build if the server list could not be retrieved.
