Question

How to trigger a build on commit to branch in declarative pipeline

Answer 1

Hi@Madhura,

You can use triggers keyword in your DSL code as shown below.

 triggers {
       // poll repo every 2 minute for changes
       pollSCM('*/2 * * * *')

It will check every two seconds if anything changes occur and build your Job automatically.

Looks more like "every two mins", and doesn't look like branch based...

How would you add a condition to say something like "if (env.BRANCH_NAME == 'staging') { go_with_stages } else { do_nothing }" ? would it be possible to do with the pipeline?

Hi@Alex,

Yes. But the Job will run if you commit anything in your branch. Otherwise, it will just monitor. But according to your requirement, the poll SCM will work.
