6.56 -> hey what's up everybody my name is moss and
welcome back to our tutorial series on jenkins
11.52 -> by now you should have a good
understanding of what jenkins
14.08 -> is and you should also be familiar with some
of the key elements of the jenkins interface
18.32 -> in addition you should have a jenkins instance up
and running if so you're ready for the next topic
24.08 -> in this video we're going to install and configure
the maven plugin on our jenkins server so first
31.04 -> what is the maven jenkins plugin the maven plugin
is an open source jenkins plugin that supports
36.88 -> maven 2 and maven 3 projects and this plugin adds
an additional job type to jenkins called a maven
43.84 -> project if you recall from the previous
video i walked through the new item page
48.08 -> which listed all of the possible job types
you could create in jenkins and this plugin
53.76 -> adds an additional job type to that list
on the new item page called maven project
59.6 -> and this maven project job type provides an
advanced integration between maven and jenkins
66.24 -> but the question is why use the maven
plug-in when we could also invoke maven
70.48 -> inside of a freestyle project the maven plugin
greatly reduces the configuration required for
75.92 -> maven projects inside of jenkins and the plugin
enables post-build deployment of binary artifacts
82.32 -> that are produced during a maven build in addition
the plugin provides graphical test reports
87.52 -> directly in the jenkins ui it also supports
incremental builds so as not to waste resources
93.6 -> we can also build modules in parallel and
distribute it across executors and jenkins
99.04 -> nodes the plugin also provides an additional build
trigger in the maven project job type if it's
105.04 -> enabled jenkins will parse the palm files of the
current project if any of the dependencies listed
110.96 -> in the pom file are built on this jenkins instance
then jenkins will set up a build dependency
116.96 -> relationship so that any time the dependency
job is ran any downstream jobs that have that
124.4 -> dependency listed in their pond file will also
be triggered to run now that we have a better
129.92 -> understanding of what the maven plugin does let's
go ahead and install it on our jenkins instance
135.68 -> okay so the first thing that i want to
do is navigate to the manage jenkins page
140.96 -> and under system configuration i'm going to
navigate to the global tool configuration page
148.48 -> and i'm going to scroll down to maven and i'm
going to select add maven installation and we'll
157.2 -> give it a name we'll call it maven 3 and i have
the option to either install this automatically
165.84 -> or i can specify a pre-existing installation
of maven on this machine so in the maven home
172.72 -> field i would just specify the directory
where maven is installed on this machine
177.44 -> i don't have maven installed on this
machine so i'm just going to select
180.96 -> install automatically and the default installer
is installing from apache and then i have the
186.88 -> option to select which version i want to
install in this case the latest version is
191.28 -> already selected so i'm going to leave it as is
and since i selected install automatically during
197.84 -> the first build of a maven project on this jenkins
instance jenkins will download and install maven
204.88 -> so the first build of a maven project on this
jenkins instance might take a little bit longer
209.76 -> because it's downloading maven but all following
builds won't take as long because maven is already
215.52 -> installed on this jenkins instance so now that
i've specified install automatically i'm going to
221.76 -> select save and in the manage jenkins page i'm
going to navigate to the manage plugins page
230.48 -> and i'll select the available tab and
we're going to search for the maven plugin
239.12 -> okay and it's the first result here called
maven integration i'm going to select that
246.56 -> and then i'm going to select
install without restart
250.56 -> and now that it is downloaded and installed i'm
going to select restart jenkins when installation
257.92 -> is complete and no jobs are running and so
now jenkins is restarting and when it reloads
264.08 -> we should be able to see the maven project
job type shown in the new item page
274.32 -> okay so i'm going to go ahead and log back in
and i'm going to navigate back to the dashboard
289.68 -> and from the dashboard i'm
going to select a new item
295.28 -> and you'll notice below the
freestyle project we now have
300 -> a maven project job type in addition to the
other jobs that we can create in this jenkins
306.08 -> instance so i'll go ahead and create a
sample project and we'll just call it
311.36 -> test maven and i'm going to select the maven job
maven project job type and i'm going to select ok
322.32 -> and there's a couple of things i'll point out
in this configuration page the first is under
326.8 -> build triggers so the first option here
is the additional build trigger that i was
331.68 -> talking about in the powerpoint slide so we can
add a build trigger to build this maven project
339.28 -> whenever a snapshot dependency is built and so
this is the dependency that is listed in the pom
345.52 -> file for this particular maven project and the
other key element of this configuration page is
350.56 -> under the build section and here we specify where
the root pom is located and we can also specify
358.96 -> maven goals and options in this field so
for instance i could say clean compile
365.68 -> and test here we can also add pre and post steps
as well and in an upcoming video we'll use an
373.04 -> actual maven project with this jenkins job type
but before we do that we'll want to integrate this
379.92 -> jenkins instance with our github account so that
jenkins can clone down the maven project code base
386.64 -> locally to the jenkins workspace and build
it so what we'll target in the next video
391.36 -> is setting up the integration between this
jenkins instance and our github account we have
395.84 -> the maven plugin installed and ready to go on this
jenkins instance so i'll see you in the next video
