[FIXED] Dynamic parameter on Jenkins Pipeline depending on branch

Issue

I have something like this on my jenkins pipeline

properties([
    parameters([
        booleanParam(description: 'Merge master to this branch', name: 'merge_master', defaultValue: false),
        someOtherParameters
    ])
])

Obviously the first parameter that doesn't make sense if the pipeline is running on master branch. So, how can I have this parameter only if the pipeline is not running on master branch?

Solution

If you haven't found a way yet, you could just add the elements to the parameters list conditionally like this

def list = []
if (env.BRANCH_NAME != 'master') {
    list.add(booleanParam(description: 'Merge master to this branch', name: 'merge_master', defaultValue: false))
}
//example list.add(otherParams)
//finally
properties([parameters(list)])
