How to run a PowerShell script as a job in Jenkins
jenkins, powershell, powershell-2.0
Solution
Well, there is a PowerShell plugin, which is wrapping the shell anyway. I use this on my server, executing scripts in standard notation:
powershell -File test001.ps1
It works without any quirks.
Problem
This sounds like a simple question, but I haven't been able to work it out after looking online. I basically want to execute a PowerShell script (e.g. script.ps1) in Jenkins and report success/failure. Try 1: Run following as "Execute Windows Batch Command" ``` powershell -File c:\scripts\script.ps1 ``` This starts up as expected, but it quits after a few seconds. Try 2: Run following as "Execute Windows Batch Command" ``` powershell -NoExit -File c:\scripts\script.ps1 ``` This runs the whole script successfully, but it never stops. I had to manually abort the script.
