Learning Jenkins, 03-01: Using a global build tool

Prerequisites

You will need to configure Maven as a global build tool.

In the Jenkins web interface, go to:

Manage Jenkins -> Global Tool Configuration -> Maven installations -> Add Maven.

Give your Maven installation a name and check the option to Install automatically.

Setting up the Jenkins Job

Create a freestyle job and configure it as follows:

1. Under Source Code Management, select Git and enter the following URL:

https://github.com/managedkaos/apache-maven-hello-world

2. MAKE SURE TO SET THE Branch Specifier to */main.
3. Add a build step using Invoke Top-Level Maven Target.
4. Select the Maven version you configured in the previous step.
5. For the goal, enter package.

MacOS, Linux, and Docker

Select the Execute shell build step.

java -cp target/hello-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar com.learningjenkins.App

Save the job and start the build.

Troubleshooting Errors

ERROR: Couldn't find any revision to build. Verify the repository and branch configuration for this job.

This error means you have probably entered the wrong branch under Source Code Management. You need to enter */03_01 for the branch.
