In the nemerosa/ontrack#494 case, the object to be posted is a map which looks like:

[
   configuration                      : "MyStash",
   project                            : "PRJ",
   repository                         : "REPO",
   indexationInterval                 : 0,
   issueServiceConfigurationIdentifier: '',
]

This map is then rendered as JSON using:

new JsonBuilder(data).toPrettyString()

In the case mentioned above, with Groovy 2.3.7, the rendered JSON looks like:

{
    "configuration": "MyStash",
    "project": "PRJ",
    "repository": "REPO",
    "indexationInterval": 0,
    "issueServiceConfigurationIdentifier": ""
}

which is correct.

On an old version of Jenkins, with Groovy 1.x, this code renders as

{
    "configuration": "MyStash",
    "project": "PRJ",
    "repository": "REPO",
    "indexationInterval": 0,
    "issueServiceConfigurationIdentifier": "\"\""
}

which is not correct.

One can use instead:

import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.*
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper()
mapper.writeValueAsString(data)

The Jackson library is available even in old versions of Jenkins.

• Ontrack DSL fixed with commit nemerosa/ontrack@bf5825d
• Plug-in to be adapted with next release
• To be decided: do we embed the Jackson library in the plug-in, or do we rely on the ones provided by Jenkins?
