Jenkinsfile idiosynchrasies with escaping and quotes
node {
echo 'Results included as an inline comment exactly how they are returned as of Jenkins 2.121, with $BUILD_NUMBER = 1'
echo 'No quotes, pipeline command in single quotes'
sh 'echo $BUILD_NUMBER' // 1
echo 'Double quotes are silently dropped'
sh 'echo "$BUILD_NUMBER"' // 1
echo 'Even escaped with a single backslash they are dropped'
sh 'echo \"$BUILD_NUMBER\"' // 1
echo 'Using two backslashes, the quotes are preserved'
sh 'echo \\"$BUILD_NUMBER\\"' // "1"

Jekyll navigation bar with automatic highlighting.

Jekyll NavBar

In building a site powered by Jekyll and hosted by GitHub, I wanted the ability to highlight the current page's tab in the bar. I also wanted the bar to support second-level items (i.e. a dropdown), which proved somewhat tricky. This is the solution I arrived at after a few hours of fiddling around.

Construction

The contents of the navigation bar are contained in a data file located at _data/navigation.yml. This makes it accessible via the site-wide Liquid element {{ site.data.navigation}}. You can see the file for the formatting I used.

How it Works

Rails middleware to provide information about errors during requests

if Rails.env == 'test'
require 'diagnostic'
config.middleware.use(MyApp::DiagnosticMiddleware)
end
