Send Jenkins error log in email (can't extract the error part of log)

I need to extract the part of the jenkins log that contains just the error description and stack trace so that I can send it in an email (which I do using the jenkins email ext plugin in the pipeline).

For e.g., in the following log snippet, I would need all lines after "org.jenkinsci.plugins.scriptsecurity ..."


    ...
    Sending build end EMAIL
    [Pipeline] echo
    Build Number: 218
    [Pipeline] }
    [Pipeline] // stage
    [Pipeline] }
    [Pipeline] // withEnv
    [Pipeline] }
    [Pipeline] // node
    Scripts not permitted to use method hudson.model.Actionable getAction java.lang.Class. Administrators can decide whether to approve or reject this signature.
    [Pipeline] End of Pipeline

        ...

How can I achieve this? I'll appreciate any help

This is my pipeline structure:


       pipeline {
         agent {...} 
         environment {...}
         stages {...}
         post {...}
       }

A way to do this is to wrap your whole pipeline script in a try/catch block and then sending an email using the mail step in the catch block. Here's how I would write it:

try {

    // your pipeline code
    // ...

} catch (e) {
    mail subject: "${env.JOB_NAME}#${env.BUILD_NUMBER} - Failed",
         body: """
 Build: ${env.BUILD_URL}

 Error message: 
 ${e.getMessage()}

 Stack Trace:
 ${e.getStackTrace().join('\n')}
         """,
         to: '[email protected]'

    throw e // rethrow the error so that it gets printed in the job log, and so the job fails
}

You will definitely need to approve getStackTrace as a "secure" method and you might have to do the same for getMessage.

Something to keep in mind is that this try/catch will not catch 'No such DSL method ' errors, which seems to be not a bug according to JENKINS-45469.

If you're interested in more complicated email behavior, you can alo checkout the extended email plugin.
