Accessing Library Resources
Steps can fetch static content from library resources defined within the library’s resources directory using the resources(String path) method.
For example, given a library:
exampleLibraryName ├── steps │ └── step1.groovy │ └── step2.groovy ├── resources │ ├── someResource.txt │ └── nested │ └── anotherResource.json └── library_config.groovy
Both step1 and step2 can fetch the contents of someResource.txt and nested/anotherResource.json using the resource method:
String someResource = resource("someResource.txt")
String anotherResource = resource("nested/anotherResource.json")It’s important to note that:
-
The path parameter passed to the
resourcemethod must be a relative path within theresourcesdirectory -
Only steps within a library can access the library’s resources (no cross-library resource fetching)
-
The
resource()method is only available within library steps and cannot be invoked from the pipeline template
