Custom workspace in jenkins

Question

1. I am not getting the check box to select custom workspace in Jenkins(ver. 1.465) while configuring the job, is there any plugin to get it?

Answer 1

in the general tab, when you go to the "advanced options" , you will see the "custom workspace" option

Answer 2

I had the same problem. For a maven build, the option "Use custom workspace" is in Build Section ("Advanced" button)

Answer 3

If you want to use custom workspace choose freestyle or multi-configuration option, Custom workspace option is not supported in maven-project(From new item)

Answer 4

A couple of images to clarify how to configure a custom workspace directory.

The "Advanced" button to click to show the "Workspace Root Directory" option:

Use a root directory with ${ITEM_FULLNAME} to put your projects' workspaces under a custom directory:

Answer 5

Maybe this answer comes a little bit too late but, anyway:

• Jenkins v2.13, works on v1.652
• Maven project
• Build section
• Click on Advanced button on the right side of the page
• Check "Use custom workspace"
• Fill in the path to the desired folder

Supports parameters too: ${SVN_BRANCH}
