How to set the PATH environment in a Jenkins scriptive pipeline?

Question

I'm running this on my local machine's Jenkins installation. I tried this to now avail. The shell command fails since it can't find terrarom executable in /usr/local/bin

node {
    withEnv(["PATH = /usr/local/bin:$env.PATH"]) {
        // The pipeline will fail it can't find terraform
        stage("Check terraform") { 
            sh "terraform --version"
        }
    }
}

Answer 1

In the documentation, there are no spaces around the = using withEnv.

What you want is

node {
    withEnv(["PATH=/usr/local/bin:$env.PATH"]) {
        stage("Check terraform") { 
            sh "terraform --version"
        }
    }
}
