Linking Jobs in Jenkins

This project requires the Parameterized trigger plugin. Go to Manage Jenkins, then Manage Plugins, and install the parameterized trigger plugin.

Configure project1 to take a string parameter. Call it what you like. Set the default to what you like.

Create a build step for execute shell. Put in the following as the build step ($var is the name of the parameter you gave to the previous step):

echo "name="$var > project1.txt

Post build, archive the artifact project1.txt and fingerprint it.

Post build, this project should trigger project2 and send parameters from the project1.txt file.

This should be a parameterized project.
It should have one string parameter called name.
The build step should be:

echo "Hello" $name > project2.txt

The artifact project2.txt should be archived and fingerprinted.
Post build, this should trigger a build on project3.

This project requires the copy artifact plugin.

Go to Manage Jenkins and install the copy artifact plugin.

Create the project as a Freestyle job, in the build steps.

First, copy the project2.txt artifact from project2.
Second, create the project3 artifact by creating a shell build step:

content=`cat project2.txt`
echo $content "this is from project3." > project3.txt

Archive the file project3.txt and fingerprint the archive.
Verify that the file contains the required text.
