How can I add double quotes to a string parameter in Jenkins pipeline script

Question

I have a Jenkins pipeline job. The job is taking an input parameter as string. I am able to retrieve that value from the script.

I wanted to add or enclose that string within double quotes. How can I achieve that?

Input parameter : www.google.com

In the script : echo InputLink

is printing me the value www.google.com

Expected result "www.google.com"

In your pipeline code just add quotes to the input string.

Assuming your input parameter is called Input:

quoted_input = '"' + Input + '"'

//or using string interpolation 
quoted_input = "\"${Input}\""

Then you can use the quoted_input wherever you need the quoted value.

If you are using a declarative pipeline use a script block:

script {
    quoted_input = "\"${params.Input}\""
}

Or define it as an environment variable so it will be available for all stages:

pipeline {
    environment {
        QUOTED_INPUT = "\"${params.Input}\""
    }
    ...

}
