So, apparently I get the exit code rather than the stdout. Is it possible to capture the stdout into a pipeline variable, such that I could get:
output=foo
as my result?
| Now, the sh step supports returning stdout by supplying the parameter returnStdout.

Somehow in my app many of the cordova plugins are installed and because of that it requires access to almost everything - from my contacts to current location ( even though this app doesn't need this ).

I'm running Jenkins 2 with the Pipeline plugin. I have setup a Multi-branch Pipeline project where each branch (master, develop, etc.) has a Jenkinsfile in the root. Setting this up was simple. However, I'm at a loss for how to have each branch run periodically (not the branch indexing), even when the code does not cha... | If you use a declarative style Pipeline and only want to trigger the build on a specific branch you can do something like this:
String cron_string = BRANCH_NAME == "master" ? "@hourly" : ""
pipeline {
agent none
triggers { cron(cron_string) }
stages {
// do something
}
}

The groovy syntax generator is NOT working for sample step properties: Set Job Properties. I've selected Discard old builds and then entered 10 in the Max # of builds to keep field and then Generate Groovy and nothing shows up.

When setting up how Jenkins shoul pull changes from subversion
I tried checked Poll SCM and set schedule to 5 * * * *, I get the following warning
Spread load evenly by using ‘H * * * *’ rather than ‘5 * * * *’
I'm not sure what H means in this context and why I should use that.

To allow periodically scheduled tasks to produce even load on the

I'm looking to run automated NUnit tests for a C# application, nightly and on each commit to svn.
Is this something that Jenkins-CI can do?
