Jenkins job colorful parameter

Having a question which I didn't found even something that is closer to it. In a job, I have 2 string parameters :

• username
• group

Can I make the parameter's headline to be in red color somehow ?

thanks

tried to google it, but nothing your help is appreciated

You could try to do that using Active Choices ET_FORMATTED_HTML parameter. It allows you to inject HTML (that may include JavaScript) into your "Build with parameters" page. Your JavaScript code would need to search for the "parameter's headline" (whatever you mean by that) and change its color to red.

Here's an ugly example (sorry I'm not a Javascript guy):

properties([
    parameters([
        [$class: 'DynamicReferenceParameter',
            name: 'HTML_ADDITIONS',
            choiceType: 'ET_FORMATTED_HTML',
            omitValueField: true,
            description: '',
            script:
                [$class: 'GroovyScript',
                   fallbackScript: [classpath: [], sandbox: false, script: ''],
                   script: [classpath: [], sandbox: false, script: getHtmlAdditions()]
                ]
        ],
        [$class: 'StringParameterDefinition',
            name: 'USERNAME',
            defaultValue: '',
            description: '',
            trim: true,
        ],
        [$class: 'StringParameterDefinition',
            name: 'GROUP',
            defaultValue: '',
            description: '',
            trim: true,
        ],
    ])
])


def getHtmlAdditions() {
    return '''
        return """
<style>
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function() {
    var username = jQuery("input[type=hidden][value=USERNAME]").parents(".tr")
    username.css('background-color', 'red')
})
</script>
"""
'''
}


pipeline {
    agent any

    stages {
        stage('hello') {
            steps {
                script {
                    sh "echo hello"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

A couple of script approvals later, and you get this:

While at it, you could similarly find the HTML_ADDITIONS field and invoke hide() on it, so that only USERNAME and GROUP are presented to the user:

jQuery("input[type=hidden][value=HTML_ADDITIONS]").parents(".tr").hide()
