Bitbucket [Cloud] Comment Reporter - MegaLinter via Jenkins

[jdutchovercfsb]

Hi everyone,

I'm currently using MegaLinter in a Jenkins Cloud environment and I'm trying to utilize the Bitbucket Pull Request Comment reporter (BitbucketCommentReporter). However, I'm facing issues with getting the Bitbucket PR comments to append after running the Jenkins job.

Here are the details of my setup:

MegaLinter: Running in Jenkins (hosted)
Bitbucket: Using Bitbucket Cloud
Jenkins to Bitbucket Integration: Using the Bitbucket plugin for Jenkins
It seems like the BitbucketCommentReporter might not be supported with Bitbucket Cloud, but I'm not entirely sure. Has anyone successfully integrated MegaLinter with Bitbucket Cloud for PR comments? If so, could you share your configuration or any tips on how to get this working? I have used this Jenkinsfile as a starting point, as well as the necessary token and scopes for Bitbucket.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
John

@jdutchovercfsb thanks for using MegaLinter :)

Bitbucket comments reporter has been made to work with bitbucket pipelines, which sends predefined env variables like:

• BITBUCKET_REPO_FULL_NAME
• BITBUCKET_GIT_HTTP_ORIGIN
• BITBUCKET_BUILD_NUMBER
• BITBUCKET_PR_ID
• BITBUCKET_STEP_UUID

So if you want it to work you need to define these variables so they are available to MegaLinter image

Is the use of Jenkins mandatory ? If you can switch to bitbucket pipelines it will work out of the box :)

@nvuillam thank you for the quick reply. Yes, I currently need to use Jenkins only. However, I may explore ways to access the SAST results (megalinter-report.md) from the Markdown Summary Reporter from the Bitbucket Cloud PR page. Thoughts?

If think that if you succeed to set the variables I named (they might be available with another name, use printenv in your jenkins job to see what's available), you might have comments on your bitbucket PR anyway :)
