Clone Jenkinsfile by changing default workspace from master to slave

Question

I am working on Jenkins Pipeline Script and I have checked-in my jenkinsfile in Git repository and I need to clone to local work space. But by default its cloning to master (Unix) work space but I need it in slave (Windows) work space.

Is there any plugins to change the default Pipeline Script from SCM work space location to slave?

You can do something like this

pipeline {
agent any
options {
    skipDefaultCheckout()
 }
stages {
    stage('checkout') {
      steps {
            node('windows') {
                 checkout scm
             }
         }
      }
   }
}

OR

pipeline {
agent 'windows'
stages {
stage('build') {
  steps {
         // build
     }
  }
 }
}

Thanks for your response, but my requirement is I have my Jenkinsfile in Bitbucket and i have to clone files in Slave workspace before executing the Pipeline Scripts.By default it's taking master workspace but I want jenkinsfile scripts to be stored in Slave workspace. – Aravind Mar 20 '18 at 12:45
Is your Jenkinsfile different from the Pipeline script? – Ram Mar 20 '18 at 12:48

In my case, the following pipeline configuration skips the default checkout on master, and checkout my code just on Jenkins slave.

node {
  docker.image('php7.1.30:1.0.0').inside {
  skipDefaultCheckout() // this avoid the checkout on master 

    stage("checkout"){
      checkout scm   // here the checkout happens on slave node
    }


    stage('NPM Install'){
      sh label: 'NPM INSTALL', script: "npm install"
      sh label: 'GRUNT INSTALL', script: "npm install -g grunt-cli"
    }

    stage('Executing grunt') {
      sh label: 'GRUNT DEFAULT', script: "grunt default"
    }

 }
}
