Use a custom executable in a Jenkins job

If you wish to use a custom binary executable or custom shell script in a Jenkins job, follow these steps:

  • Copy the custom binary or shell script to the /opt/bitnami/apps/jenkins/tmp directory. For example:

      $ sudo cp test.sh /opt/bitnami/apps/jenkins/tmp/test.sh
    
  • Change the permissions as shown below:

      $ sudo chmod +x /opt/bitnami/apps/jenkins/tmp/test.sh
    

You should now be able to use the custom binary or shell script in a Jenkins job using the “Execute shell” build step and entering the complete path to the target file in the “Command” field.
