I have a project that has the following XML file (config.xml for a Cordova project) ...
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<widget android-versionCode="16" id="com.mycomp.myapp" ios-CFBundleVersion="15" version="1.3.0.b4" windows-packageVersion="1.2.6.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:cdv="http://cordova.apache.org/ns/1.0">
<name>My App</name>
<description>My app description</description>
<author>mycom.com.au</author>
....
All I want to do is read the value of the version attribute (to give me the string 1.3.0.b4) of the root element (widget). Following the example here where it says to use the .@ to get an attribute.
I have the following in my Jenkins file script:
script {
def xml = readFile "${env.WORKSPACE}/config.xml"
def rootNode = new XmlParser().parseText(xml)
def version = rootNode.@version
echo 'version is...'
echo version
But when I run it, I get the following error:
org.jenkinsci.plugins.scriptsecurity.sandbox.RejectedAccessException: No such field found: field groovy.util.Node version
at org.jenkinsci.plugins.scriptsecurity.sandbox.groovy.SandboxInterceptor.unclassifiedField(SandboxInterceptor.java:425)

I have tried rootNode.@version (as above) rootNode[0].@version and rootNode[3].@version but nothing works.
What's wrong with the above?
If I use the following:
def xml = readFile "${env.WORKSPACE}/config.xml"
def rootNode = new XmlParser().parseText(xml)
def version = rootNode.text()
echo 'version is...'
echo version
it prints out My app description which is a bit weird (it jumps down to the description node)
I tried using the following:
def rootNode = new XmlSlurper().parse("${env.WORKSPACE}/config.xml")
def version = rootNode.@'version'
but I still get a similar error:

If I call echo rootNode.text(), once again it seems to just print out the contents of the first 3 tags inside the main ,widget tag, i.e. My AppMy app descriptionmycom.com.au.
I tested some more in context of being able to also modify the attribute, and found out when using the [] access, the @ selector for attributes actually works. It seems this leads to use different methods under the hood which you can approve in jenkins (getAtand putAt) .
We can simply use
def rootNode = new XmlParser().parseText(xml)
println rootNode['@version']
There seems some bug regarding the direct access to the attributes with the @ selector on the groovy.util.Node object with the script sandbox.
A workaround is to use the .attributes() method to get the full Map of attributes, and access the value via the key like the following:
def rootNode = new XmlParser().parseText(xml)
println rootNode.attributes()['version']
This will fail the first run and promt you to approve the use of method groovy.util.Node attributes, but once approved will work.
