Alternative to `list.findIndexOf` in Jenkins/Groovy

Question

When executing the following in Jenkins:

def platformIndex = list.findIndexOf { it.key ==  "linux" }.value
if (platformIndex == -1) { // params.PLATFORM not found
    platformIndex = env.BUILD_NUMBER % platformMaps.size() 
}

I get the following error:

I've taken note of solution described here Jenkins CI Pipeline Scripts not permitted to use method groovy.lang.GroovyObject

However, disabling sandbox or disabling script security is not an option. Therefore I was wondering if there's an alternative to list.findIndexOf

The linked answer is to: "Navigate to jenkins > Manage jenkins > In-process Script Approval. There was a pending command, which I had to approve." This approves tne one method only and is low risk providing you have a private Jenkns and full knowledge / control of what it does. other 2 options are big hammer alternatives. — Ian W, Jul 24 '21 at 07:03
You have issue in code. You are trying to get `.value` on integer. `list.findIndexOf{}` returns integer and integer doesn't have property `value` — daggett, Jul 24 '21 at 10:29
@daggett is right about the error in your code. But integer does have a field `value` it's just private https://github.com/frohoff/jdk8u-jdk/blob/master/src/share/classes/java/lang/Integer.java#L840 — tim_yates, Jul 24 '21 at 13:02

Just remove the .value part:

def platformIndex = list.findIndexOf { it.key ==  "linux" }
if (platformIndex == -1) { // params.PLATFORM not found
    platformIndex = env.BUILD_NUMBER % platformMaps.size() 
}

The findIndexOf() function already returns an integer.
