[FIXED] Import Jenkins WorkflowScript class

Issue

Instead of using def in my groovy scripts, I would like to be able to import the WorkflowScript class.

Instead of:

def script

I want:

WorkflowScript script

I want that because when I want to pass a script to a function, like get_branch(script) it usually crash. For a weird reason it works with constructor, not methods.

For my IDE, I would also need to be able to get the dependency, which I do not find on maven, any way for that ?

Solution

I think this class is build dynamically to attach into it all available plugin extensions. But I think you can use super class for WorkflowScript - CpsScript:

import org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.cps.CpsScript

More information about the CpsScript can be found here: https://javadoc.jenkins.io/plugin/workflow-cps/org/jenkinsci/plugins/workflow/cps/package-tree.html
