Execute Shell Script after post build in Jenkins

Question

I am trying to execute a shell script if either the build pass or fails after post-build in Jenkins  I cannot see this option in post build to execute some shell script except for running a target

You can also run arbitrary commands using the Groovy Post Build - and that will give you a lot of control over when they run and so forth. We use that to run a 'finger of blame' shell script in the case of failed or unstable builds.

if (manager.build.result.isWorseThan(hudson.model.Result.SUCCESS)) {
  item = hudson.model.Hudson.instance.getItem("PROJECTNAMEHERE")
  lastStableBuild = item.getLastStableBuild()
  lastStableDate = lastStableBuild.getTime()
  formattedLastStableDate = lastStableDate.format("MM/dd/yyyy h:mm:ss a")
  now = new Date()
  formattedNow = now.format("MM/dd/yyyy h:mm:ss a")
  command = ['/appframe/jenkins/appframework/fob.ksh', "${formattedLastStableDate}", "${formattedNow}"]
  manager.listener.logger.println "FOB Command: ${command}"
  manager.listener.logger.println command.execute().text
}

(Our command takes the last stable build date and the current time as parameters so it can go investigate who might have broken the build, but you could run whatever commands you like in a similar fashion)

If I m reading your question right  you want to run a script in the post build actions part of the build   I myself use PostBuildScript Plugin for running git clean -fxd after the build has archived artifacts and published test results  My Jenkins slaves have SSD disks  so I do not have the room keep generated files in the workspace

Very easily done with Post build task plugin

You d have to set up the post-build shell script as a separate Jenkins job and trigger it as a post-build step   It looks like you will need to use the Parameterized Trigger Plugin as the standard  Build other projects  option only works if your triggering build is successful

You should be able to do that with the Batch Task plugin    Create a batch task in the project  Add a  Invoke batch tasks  post-build option selecting the same project    An alternative can also be Post build task plugin
