Version history

Version 1.19 (August 2, 2019)

• JENKINS-44609 - Docker inspect failing on named multi-stage builds Resolved   JENKINS-44789 - docker 17.05 multistage Dockerfile breaks dockerFingerprintFrom Resolved   JENKINS-57369 - Docker build-args incorrectly rejected and successful build marked failed Resolved  Deprecate the dockerFingerprintFrom and dockerFingerprintRun steps and stop calling them during docker.build and image.run. Fixes various issues with Dockerfile parsing and parsing arguments to docker build. 
• JENKINS-46636 - `dir` does not change working directory for contained steps Resolved  Attempt to support the dir step when running on a Docker container created by this plugin for older versions of Docker (17.12 and older)

Version 1.18 (April 2, 2019)

• JENKINS-48437 - Docker Pipeline Plugin withRegistry and Authorize Plugin fails to get credentialsId Resolved  Allow users with Credentials/UseItem permission (implied by Job/Configure permission) on a Pipeline Job to use credentials which that job has access to in the withDockerRegistry and withDockerServer steps even when Authorize Project Plugin is installed and configured to run builds as a user other than the default Jenkins superuser.
• JENKINS-46105 - Docker 17.05 ARG in FROM breaks docker inspect Resolved  Extend fix for ARGs in FROM added in version 1.15 to support ARGs with default values.
• JENKINS-56674 - In case of execute withDockerContainer inside withDockerCotainer env variables is not masked Resolved  Mask environment variables used by steps that use the Launcher API inside of a withDockerContainer step.
• (PR 153) Update help related to image.pull() to explain what problems might happen if the method is not called.

Version 1.17 (May 18, 2018)

• JENKINS-51395 - withDockerRegistry([...]) syntax no longer accepted Resolved  The withDockerRegistry step now preferentially takes a “flat” argument list, but continues to support older syntaxes, including the one broken in 1.16.
• JENKINS-51397 - docker login being called without server-related environment variables Resolved  May solve login issues in certain environments, especially with a custom Docker server endpoint. The non-CLI-based login behavior in 1.15.1 may be restored using the Jenkins startup flag -Dorg.jenkinsci.plugins.docker.commons.credentials.DockerRegistryToken.USE_CUSTOM_LOGIN=true but this suffers from a number of known limitations including lack of guaranteed support for parallel builds on one computer, failure to clean up credentials at the end of a build, incompatibility with the JSON format from some versions of the Docker client, etc.
