Global Variable String Parameter Plugin

This plugin is intended to provide a parameter with support for global node properties via $VARIABLE or ${VARIABLE}

Add global-variable-string-parameter.hpi to jenkins/plugins and restart. In your job, choose Add Parameter and select Global Variable String Parameter. Use $VARIABLE or ${VARIABLE} to substitute global node parameters.

Example

1. Create a global variable
   
   
2. Create a global variable string parameter in a job
   
   
3. Reference the global variable in the default value
   
   
4. Add a simple echo statement to demonstrate the substitution
   
   
5. The variable remains unsubstituted on the Build Now page
   
   
6. But is correctly substituted in the console output
   
   
7. The variable can also be changed from the build now screen to be incorrect
   
   
8. And no longer substitutes
