Jenkins workflow (pipeline) + JobDSL plugin - SCM does not work

Question

I am trying to integrate pipelineJob dsl into jenkins DSL(by jenkins DSL plugin).

As seen the API reference in jenkins DSL, there is argument for my purpose. pipelineJob -> scm -> git

But after generation, there is no scm view at all in the UI and I found that if I made the pure pipelineJob, there was also no UI for scm.

I tracked the pipeline plugin source and realized that pipelineJob inherited job, so I thought there should be SCM-related option like normal job.

Is there any way to achieve get the normal scm UI in pipeline job? or Do I have to achieve my purpose by groovy script only?

Jenkins job DSL below

def projects = [
    'Nova',
    'Keystone',
    'Cinder',
    'Glance',
    'Horizon',
    'Neutron',
    'Networking-kakao',
    'Neutron-fwaas',
    'Neutron-lbaas',
    'Octavia',
    'Ceilometer',
    'Heat',
    'Sahara',
    'Trove'
]

def codeName = 'mitaka'
def ref = 'kakao/' + codeName

projects.each {
  def project = it
  def jobName = 'Unit/OpenStack/' + project

  project = project.toLowerCase()
  pipelineJob(jobName) {
    logRotator(daysToKeep = 7, numToKeep = 5)

    scm {
        concurrentBuild()
        git {
            remote {
           url("https://github.com/openstack/${project}.git")

            }
            branch("${ref}")
            extensions {
                wipeOutWorkspace()
            }
        }
    }

    definition {
        cps {
            sandbox()
            script("""
            node {
            stage ('Clone Sources') {
            git {
            remote {
            url("https://github.com/openstack/${project}.git")
            credentials("ccc")
            }
            branch("${ref}")
            extensions {
            wipeOutWorkspace()
            }
            }
            git {
            url 'https://github.com/openstack-tox-base.git'
            branch 'rewrite'
            }
            sh 'cp tox-openstack-base/Dockerfile.test Dockerfile'
            }

            docker.withServer('tcp://...:2375') {
              def img
              def base = docker.image('idock.daumkakao.io/openstack/tox/test-base:newton2')

              stage ('Build Test Image') {
                base.pull()
                  img = docker.build("tox/newton/test-horizon")
              }

            stage ('Run Test') {
              sh "docker run --rm tox/newton/test-horizon"
            }
            }
            }

      """.stripIndent())
        }
    }
}
}

The Pipeline job does not support the scm block. Unfortunately, the Job DSL API allows to use the scm block in pipelineJob. That is an open issue in Job DSL, see JENKINS-31832.

To load your Pipeline script from SCM, use the cpsScm block:

pipelineJob('example') {
  definition {
    cpsScm {
      scm {
        git('https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin.git')
      }
    }
  }
}
