Attach latest build generated file (not log file) from Jenkins emailext?

I am running a Jenkins pipline which is calling a script In following example, running a script which is generating output file with issue_{datetime}.txt I want to send this file as attachment. However, as file name is generated every time with separate date time stamps not able to find a way to attach file. e.g.

 pipeline {
   agent any
   stages{
      stage('Start Build'){
          steps{
             python run.py
           }
      }
   }
  post {
    always {
            echo ("${email_id}")
            emailext from: 'xyz@yahoo.com', attachmentsPattern: 'resources/*.xlsx', 
            to: "${email_id}",     
      }
    }
  }
Solution

  • OUTPUT_FILE = sh(script: 'ls -t resources/issue*.xlsx | head -1', returnStdout: true) emailext from: 'test@yahoo.com', attachmentsPattern:"${OUTPUT_FILE}"
