abapAddonAssemblyKitCheckPV¶

This step checks the validity of a Addon Product Version.

Description¶

This step checks by calling AAKaaS whether the Addon Product Version in the addonDescriptor configuration file specified via addonDescriptorFileName (e.g. addon.yml) does exist or is a valid successor of an existing Product Version. It resolves the dotted version string into version, support package stack level and patch level and writes it to the addonDescriptor structure in the Piper commonPipelineEnvironment for usage of subsequent pipeline steps.
For Terminology refer to the Scenario Description.

Usage¶

We recommend to define values of step parameters via .pipeline/config.yml file.
In this case, calling the step is essentially reduced to defining the step name.
Calling the step can be done either in an orchestrator specific way (e.g. via a Jenkins library step) or on the command line.

Jenkins

library('piper-lib-os')

abapAddonAssemblyKitCheckPV script: this

Command Line

piper abapAddonAssemblyKitCheckPV

Outputs¶

Output type	Details
commonPipelineEnvironment	abap/addonDescriptor

Artifacts¶

addonDescriptorFile (addon.yml) The addonDescriptorFile as specified in parameter addonDescriptorFileName is archived as artifact. This is done as this file is the main configuration and usually changed with every run. Thus it simplifies support if the corresponding configuration file is directly accessible in the pipeline.

Prerequisites¶

The credentials to access the AAKaaS (Technical Communication User) must be stored in the Jenkins Credential Store
The step needs an addon.yml containing information about the Product Version and corresponding Software Component Versions/Repositories

A detailed description of all prerequisites of the scenario and how to configure them can be found in the Scenario Description.

script¶

Jenkins-specific: Used for proper environment setup.

The common script environment of the Jenkinsfile running. Typically the reference to the script calling the pipeline step is provided with the this parameter, as in script: this. This allows the function to access the commonPipelineEnvironment for retrieving, e.g. configuration parameters.

Examples¶

Configuration in the config.yml¶

The recommended way to configure your pipeline is via the config.yml file. In this case, calling the step in the Jenkinsfile is reduced to one line:

abapAddonAssemblyKitCheckPV script: this

If the step is to be configured individually the config.yml should look like this:

steps:
  abapAddonAssemblyKitCheckCVs:
    abapAddonAssemblyKitCredentialsId: 'abapAddonAssemblyKitCredentialsId',
    addonDescriptorFileName: 'addon.yml'

More convenient ways of configuration (e.g. on stage level) are described in the respective scenario/pipeline documentation.
