Using Jenkins File Operations Plugin for File Management in Pipelines

The Jenkins File Operations plugin enables convenient file handling—upload, download, move, rename, and delete—directly within Jenkins pipelines. After installing the plugin from the official Jenkins site, you can generate the DSL needed to configure file operations.

To run a pipeline using the plugin, define a Jenkinsfile that includes an agent any and a stage where a script block calls

fileOperations([fileCreateOperation(fileContent: 'devops', fileName: 'test.json')])

, followed by a shell command sh " ls -l " and a sleep 20 to observe the results.

Example pipeline code:

pipeline {
    agent any
    stages {
        stage('Hello') {
            steps {
                script {
                    fileOperations([fileCreateOperation(fileContent: 'devops', fileName: 'test.json')])
                    sh " ls -l "
                    sleep 20
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

The build log shows the created file and the output of the ls -l command, confirming that the plugin works as expected. Additional screenshots illustrate the installation process, DSL generation, pipeline execution, and build log details.
