Jenkins Log Parser

Question

I was using https://plugins.jenkins.io/log-parser/ plugin with freestyle Jenkins Jobs. But since moving to Jenkins Pipeline, I have not been able to integrate the log parser into the Declaratinve Pipeline syntax.

How can this be done? I also didn't find info in their docs. Also, what would be a good log parsing rule and where to specify it? In the Jenkinsfile also? Could you give an example? Thanks.

I don't user log-parser, but a quick glance at the issues suggests it is not presently compatible;

JENKINS-27208: Make Log Parser Plugin compatible with Workflow

JENKINS-32866: Log Parser Plugin does not parse Pipeline console outputs

Update:
This old response by Jesse Glick (Cloudbees; Jenkins sponsor) to similar question suggests it does in fact work now and suggests how to generate syntax, but OP complains DSL and documentation is weak.

gdemengin wrote pipeline-logparser to work around another issue JENKINS-54304

Build Failure Analyzer may also be of use to you. YMMV

Ufff, that's a shame. Are there other alternatives? – Garbem Oct 16 '20 at 10:20

You can try something like the following:

stage('check') {
  steps {
    echo 'checking logs from previous stages...'
    logParser failBuildOnError: true, parsingRulesPath: '/path/to/rules', useProjectRule: false, projectRulePath: ''
    }
}

The pipeline syntax section in Jenkins allows you to get snippets for your Jenkinsfile
