Using Jenkins declarative when conditions in scripted pipelines

Question

Jenkins declarative pipelines offer very convenient when directive with conditions like changeset.

Is is possible the this changeset and other when conditions in a scripted pipeline?

Answer 1

It would seem not - in the scripted pipeline, groovy needs to be used - see the docs

node {
    stage('Example') {
        if (env.BRANCH_NAME == 'master') {
            echo 'I only execute on the master branch'
        } else {
            echo 'I execute elsewhere'
        }
    }
}

(taken straight from the docs)

This would be the same as when { branch 'master' }
