how to upload big file via base64file in pipeline

[hiseth (seth)]

hello everyone,
I’m new to jenkins, and I encountered a problem when using jenkins to upload files to the working directory, which has troubled me for several days. So I had to come here to ask everyone.

I want to upload some pictures or files to the working directory through the pipeline, and then upload them to git. The following is my pipeline

pipeline {
    agent

{         label 'master'     }
        base64File(name: 'pdfile', description: 'pdf')
  }
    stages {
                stage('rename file') {
                        steps {
                             withFileParameter(name:'pdfile', allowNoFile: false) {
                                 sh """ mv $pdfile ${workspace}/example.pdf """
                             }
                        }
                }
    }
}

I followed the code samples in the jenkins docs and it looks like it didn’t work out. Afterwards, I found out that base64 is only effective for small files, so how to upload files of MB or larger in the pipeline now?

Can you share if you are getting an error or what is the issue that you are seeing. You say “it looks like it didn’t work out” can you give more information?

[halkeye (Gavin Mogan)]

Hi there,

“it doesn’t work” is always hard to remote debug. Try to always include these 3 things.

1. what did you try? (Code samples, command lines, screenshots, videos, etc)
2. what did happen? (Error messages, description, outputs, stuff)
3. what did you expect to happen?

Otherwise, it’s hard for us to get into your context and you’ll have to have someone who is exactly knowledgeable come along.

[hiseth (seth)]

hi, My answer is below, can you take a look

[slide_o_mix (Alex Earl)]

From looking at your pipeline, I don’t think it is well formed.

pipeline {
    agent

{         label 'master'     }
        base64File(name: 'pdfile', description: 'pdf')
  }

It seems like you are missing a portion for the parameters?

[hiseth (seth)]

nnno, that’s just my example. Configured exactly according to the jenkins documentation

pipeline {
    agent {
        label 'master'
    }
    parameters {
        base64File(name: 'pdfile', description: 'pdf')
    }
    stages {
      stage('rename file') {
	    steps {
            withFileParameter(name:'pdfile', allowNoFile: false) {
              sh """ mv $pdfile ${workspace}/example.pdf """
            }
        } 
      }
    }
}

Can you use the example configuration below, have you ever uploaded a MB size file?

refer:

File Parameter

[slide_o_mix (Alex Earl)]

Can you try replacing the triple double quotes with single quotes?

pipeline {
    agent {
        label 'master'
    }
    parameters {
        base64File(name: 'pdfile', description: 'pdf')
    }
    stages {
      stage('rename file') {
	    steps {
            withFileParameter(name:'pdfile', allowNoFile: false) {
              sh 'mv $pdfile ${WORKSPACE}/example.pdf'
            }
        } 
      }
    }
}

[hiseth (seth)]

Still doesn’t seem to work, I changed it to single quotes. There is still an error that the parameter is too long

I found an issue, the file upload parameter is not suitable for the pipeline？
ref: [JENKINS-38576] Long build parameters result in shell scripts crashing - Jenkins Jira

[slide_o_mix (Alex Earl)]

Can you share the new pipeline?

[slide_o_mix (Alex Earl)]

This works for me:

pipeline {
    agent any
    parameters {
        base64File(name: 'pdfile', description: 'pdf')
    }
    stages {
      stage('rename file') {
	    steps {
            withFileParameter(name:'pdfile', allowNoFile: false) {
              sh 'mv $pdfile ${WORKSPACE}/example.pdf'
            }
        } 
      }
    }
}

[hiseth (seth)]

only mv it’s ok, but add a stage it’s bad

pipeline {
    agent {
        label 'any'
    }
    parameters {
        base64File(name: 'pdfile', description: 'pdf')
  }
    stages {
        stage('prepare') {
            steps {
                withFileParameter(name:'pdfile', allowNoFile: false) {
                  sh 'mv $pdfile ${WORKSPACE}/example.pdf'
                }
            }
        }
        stage('test') {
            steps {
                sh "ls -al ${WORKSPACE}/"
                sh "sleep 10s"
            }
        }
    }
}

You’ll have to continue debugging. The file upload is not the issue anymore, it looks like something is trying to run nohup, but it can’t. I recommend reading the docs on jenkins.io and look at examples. I can’t help debug every step of your pipeline.

Hi There,

I am using base64File through input parameter. But i am getting No such DSL method ‘base64File’ found among steps error. Do I need to import any classes or install any plugins

Tried below code base:

def inputFile = input message: ‘Upload file’, parameters: [base64File(‘file’)]
withEnv([“inputFile=$inputFile”]){
sh ‘echo $inputFile |base64 -d > File.csv’
}

[naumenkovadym]

try to use stashedFile

pipeline {
    agent {
        label 'any'
    }
    parameters {
        stashedFile description: 'pdf', name: 'pdfile'
    }
    stages {
        stage('prepare') {
            steps {
                unstash 'pdfile'
                sh 'mv pdfile ${WORKSPACE}/example.pdf'
            }
        }
        stage('test') {
            steps {
                sh "ls -al ${WORKSPACE}/"
                sh "sleep 10s"
            }
        }
    }
}
