Pipeline multiple jenkins jobs

Question

I am very new to Jenkins.

There are multiple jobs already configured in Jenkins, As of now we are running all the jobs manually one after the other. I want to make it a single job by pipeline plugin, So that manual effort is reduced.

I had gone through the links, It states we should have JenkinsFile in our repository it basically contains command's to execute the different tasks.

But if i am configuring it in JenkinsFile how can give the existing job names ?

Is it the only way to do a pipeline or is there any other way to achieve this ?

Ex : I have three jobs

build-dev-code
test-dev-code
deploy-stage

I would like to pipeline all the three jobs,

 deploy-stage-ci

So that it contains all the 3 above mentioned jobs.

If you use a pipeline you will have a single job with multiple stages. You can use the same names for those stages as you used for the jobs they replace, if you like. — jonrsharpe

If you Google "jenkinsfile pipeline" there are plenty out there already! — jonrsharpe

Is there any other way? If i don't want to include JenkinsFile — Jay

Given that it's now the standard way of doing things, why don't you want to include a Jenkinsfile? — jonrsharpe

You don't always need a Jenkinsfile to use Pipeline. In your Pipeline job, choose "Pipeline Script" from the dropdown to get a script editor.

To build your three jobs sequentially, in a pipeline, use the following script (using names from your example). It simply wraps each job in a stage and builds it. This will also give you a pretty stage view while it runs your jobs:

stage('Build') { build 'build-dev-code' } stage('Test') { build 'test-dev-code' } stage('Deploy') { build 'deploy-stage' }

Exactly, the same way i tried and it is working.. One more thing i would like to know is can we have the parameters passed for each job once pipeline is started??
