Jenkins plugin to add a build-step to define new environment variables that can be used in following steps. What's this?

Setenv Builder is a Jenkins plugin. This plugin provides Define variables build step:

• It defines new variables, that can be referenced in the following build steps.
• You can select the way to specify variables:
  • With List: Specify variables with specifying each name and variable in a text field.
  • With Textarea: Specify variables with "NAME=VALUE" format in each line in a textarea.
• Additional way to specify variables can be extended by using [the Jenkins extention point featere] (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Extension+points).

Limitations

• Build parameters cannot be overwritten.

Extension point

A new additional way to specify variables be added with extending SetenvConfig, overriding the following method:

abstract public Map<String, String>  SetenvConfig::getEnvMap(EnvVars env, PrintStream logger);

Or, you can extend AbstractSetenvConfig, and define name and value pairs by calling following method:

public void AbstractSetenvConfig::setSetenvEntryList(List<SetenvEntry> setenvEntryList);
