Running a Post Build script when a Jenkins job is aborted

Question

Is there a possible way / plugin that can run a post build script when a Jenkins job is aborted. I do see that the post build plugin provides an action to execute a set of scrip

Answer 1

For a declarative Jenkins pipeline, you can achieve it as follows:

pipeline {
    agent any

    options {
        timeout(time: 2, unit: 'MINUTES')   // abort on exceeding the timeout
    }

    stages {
        stage('Echo 1') {
           steps {
              echo 'Hello World'
          } 
        }
        stage('Sleep'){
            steps {
                sh 'sleep 180'
            }
        }
        stage('Wake up'){
            steps {
                echo "Woken up"
            }
        }
    }
    // this post part is executed if job is aborted
    post {
        aborted {
            echo "Damn it. I was aborted!"
        }
    }
}
