Pipelines gradle build jar name

Ovadia Babayev

I an trying to configure a pipeline that build a jar using Gradle and then deploy it to AWS elastic beanstalk, this is my pipeline yml:

image: openjdk:8

pipelines:
  default:
    - step:
        name: "Build Jar"
        caches:
          - gradle
        script:
          - bash ./gradlew build
        artifacts:
          - build/libs/*.jar
   - step:
       name: "Deploy"
       script:
         - pipe: atlassian/aws-elasticbeanstalk-deploy:0.2.9
           variables:
             AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: **
             AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: **
             AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: **
             APPLICATION_NAME: **
             ENVIRONMENT_NAME: **
             ZIP_FILE: 'build/libs/*.jar'

My jar file always changing based on the version in the Gradle file, ex: service-1.2.1-RELEASE.jar, so I can't set static value in ZIP_FILE variable.


How can I upload the file without a specific name?

Hi Ovadia,

you can use an environment variable in the ZIP_FILE value, eg:

ZIP_FILE: 'build/libs/${MY_JAR_FILE_NAME}'

This environment variable gets expanded at the last moment before the pipe runs, so all you need to do is work out a command to run before your pipe to set the correct value:

script:
  - 'export MY_JAR_FILE_NAME=`<command to determine the correct filename>`'
  - pipe: atlassian/aws-elasticbeanstalk-deploy:0.2.9
variables:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: **
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: **
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: **
APPLICATION_NAME: **
ENVIRONMENT_NAME: **
             ZIP_FILE: 'build/libs/${MY_JAR_FILE_NAME}
