In my Jenkinsfile I execute 2 stages in parallel and one of these stages would consist of few other sequential stages. When I run the script and check the pipeline in BlueOcean, that sequence of stages is represented as one single node.
The (simplified) script is as follows :
node {
stage('Stage 1') {...}
stage('Stage 2') {...}
stage('Stages 3 & 4 in parallel') {
parallel(
'Stage 3': {
stage('Stage 3') {...}
},
'Stage 4': {
stage('Stage 4a') {...}
stage('Stage 4b') {...}
}
)
}
}
So in BlueOcean this script results in one node for stage 4 while I wish to see two nodes as it is composed of two sequential stages.
I too have faced the same issue with Scripted pipelines. If you are fine with Declarative pipelines, you can use this:
pipeline {
agent any
stages {
stage('Stage 1') { steps {pwd()}}
stage('Stage 2') { steps {pwd()}}
stage('Stages 3 & 4 in parallel') {
parallel {
stage('Stage 3') { steps {pwd()}}
stage('Stage 4') {
stages {
stage('Stage 4a') { steps {pwd()}}
stage('Stage 4b') { steps {pwd()}}
}
}
}
}
}
}
