How to get the jobname from jenkins

Jenkins

Jenkins Problem Overview

Is there a way to get the jobname for the current build in jenkins and pass it as a parameter to an ant build script?

Jenkins Solutions

Solution 1 - Jenkins

Jenkins sets some environment variables such as JOB_NAME (see here) for more details on the variables set.

You can then access these in ant via ${env.JOB_NAME}.

Edit: There's also a little howto for environment variables on the same page here.

Solution 2 - Jenkins

A similar issue, I was looking for job name for shell script.

In the 'Execute shell' > 'Command' textbox, both the below worked for me:

echo $JOB_NAME  
echo "$JOB_NAME"

Solution 3 - Jenkins

You may set special variable for that based on global variable. Simple:

THEJOB="${JOB_NAME.substring(JOB_NAME.lastIndexOf('/') + 1, JOB_NAME.length())}"

Now $THEJOB is your job name

Solution 4 - Jenkins

If you can run any Job, you can easily go to the Build section of that job and go to environment variables and see all the information there.
