I have a multibranchpipeline job but I don't want to run the code in the Jenkinsfile in the repo. Instead I want to run a short pipeline script defined in the dsl script. What I have in my mind looks like this

multibranchPipelineJob('my-multibranch-pipeline') {
    displayName('My Multi-Branch Pipeline')
    description('Multi-Branch Pipeline con Workflow Pipeline Project Factory')

    branchSources {
        git {
            id('my-git-source')
            remote('.git')
            credentialsId('my-git-credentials')
            includes('*')
        }
    }

    factory {
        pipelineFactory {
            script("""
                pipeline {
                    agent any
                    stages {
                        stage('Checkout') {
                            steps {
                                echo 'hello world'
                            }
                        }                   
                    }
                }
            """)
        }
    }
}

pipelineFactory don't exist, it's just to show you what i want to do. My question is, how can I actually implement this? I can also use scripts in my shared library if there is chance to do so.

As far as I remember, it's not possible with multibranch pipeline, as its idea is to take the Jenkinsfile from the repository (because it might differ between different branches). But it might be possible with pipelineJob.

With multibranchPipelineJob you can only set the path to the Jenkinsfile within your myrepo.git repository like this (a full example could be found in Setting pipeline description in declarative Jenkinsfile):

// ...
  factory {
    workflowBranchProjectFactory {
      scriptPath("path/to/Jenkinsfile")
    }
  }
// ...
