How to open a file and edit its content in groovy script
- I have a Makefile in my Jenkins job's workspace, that I want to edit out certain parts from and then save it, before running next part of the script that uses this Makefile.
the part that I want to cut out is this-`PUMP_MARKER:=,cpp- ifneq (,$(findstring $(PUMP_MARKER), $(DISTCC_HOSTS)))
- PUMP:=pump
- else
- PUMP:=
endif`I am looking for some shell command that I could put in my groovy script, that will open up this file and remove this above mentioned part, save it and then move on.I'm not good with shell so I cant possible figure this out on my own.Here is how my groovy script looks like-`stage('Build'){``dir ("$WORKSPACE/$SVN_TAG") {`- Here- I want to insert some shell command to edit that file out
`}``}`Could any please suggest some ideas to implement this.Note- I know I could just vi that file and manually do this but I want to do this for multiple jobs and I'm genuinely looking for something that I can just paste in my every groovy script and automatically do this.
