Question

I am new to Jenkins and I want to know how it is possible to display the HTML report (not the HTML code) generated after a successful build inside a mail body (not as an att

Answer 1

You just need to assign the link to the environment variable and then you can use that variable to print in the email using ${ENV, var=ENV_VARIABLE}.

Answer 2

It should be something like this:

Navigation:

Configure -> Editable Email Notification

Default Content:

${FILE,path="path/result.html"}

Answer 3

Besides reading the file with body: ${FILE,path="index.html"}, you need to set the proper content type, either globally or explicitly for one execution, with mimeType: 'text/html.

emailext subject: '$DEFAULT_SUBJECT',
                    body: '${FILE,path="index.html"}',
                    recipientProviders: [
                        [$class: 'CulpritsRecipientProvider'],
                        [$class: 'DevelopersRecipientProvider'],
                        [$class: 'RequesterRecipientProvider']
                    ], 
                    replyTo: '$DEFAULT_REPLYTO',
                    to: '$DEFAULT_RECIPIENTS',
                    mimeType: 'text/html'

Answer 4

It worked for me with Jenkins 1.558

${FILE,path="target/failsafe-reports/emailable-report.html"}

Answer 5

You can use Editable Email Notification post build action to send html content as part of mail body.

Copy html content in Default Content and select Content Type as HTML (text/html), as in below image:

Answer 6

Look deeper into the plugin documentations. No need for groovy here.

Just make sure Content Type is set to HTML and add the following to the body:

${FILE,path="my.html"}

This will place the my.html content in your email body (location of file is relative to job's workspace. I use it and it works well.

I hope this helps.

EDIT: Note that you must have the Jenkins version 1.532.1 (or higher) to support this feature with the email-ext plugin.
