How to use jenkins plugin in python script?

Question

I've wrote a script to create a job in jenkins, next in that script I want to get environment variables and set them.

So I want to use "envInject" plugin in my script, but I don't know how can I call or bring it to my python script?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

In Python env variables can be accessed through os.environ

import os
print os.environ['BUILD_NUMBER']

see your jenkins_site/jenkins/env-vars.html for more info on build vars available

what do you mean about "build number" ?

build_number is environment variable that is available within jenkins node upon build execution and contains build number.

How can I use "envInject" plugin with it?
