I cant see examples of how to do this: https://jenkins.io/doc/book/managing/plugins/
I backup a list of all plugins installed and their versions.
I want to use install-plugin command to install all plugins (and their specific versions) from the list.
I dont see option to specify version to install-plugin command
To install a specific version you can run the command and pass a parameter with a colon like this:
install-plugins.sh git:3.9.1
or alternatively add the list of plugins to a file (plugins.txt for instance):
git:3.9.1
saml:1.0.7
and run it with the following command:
install-plugins.sh plugins.txt
For versions of Jenkins 2.357 an up, install-plugins.sh has been removed. The command should now be this:
/bin/jenkins-plugin-cli -f /usr/share/jenkins/ref/plugins.txt
You can download jar file from here: https://github.com/jenkinsci/plugin-installation-manager-tool
$ rm -rf /usr/share/jenkins/plugins/ldap*
$ ls /usr/share/jenkins/plugins/ldap*
ls: cannot access '/usr/share/jenkins/plugins/ldap*': No such file or directory
$ echo $JAVA_OPTS
-Djenkins.install.runSetupWizard=false
$ java $JAVA_OPTS -jar /opt/jenkins-plugin-manager-2.12.8.jar --plugins ldap:2.7
Done
$ ls /usr/share/jenkins/plugins/ldap*
/usr/share/jenkins/plugins/ldap.jpi
$ echo "http://<jenkins-url>/restart"
http://<jenkins-url>/restart
$ ls /usr/share/jenkins/plugins/ldap*
