jenkins，使用jenkins为项目生成.jar

Question

I ma beginner in Jenkins, I just finished to install it with apache Ant and Maven. Can anyone help me to generate .jar for a java project in gitHub

Answer 1

From Ant, you can simply add a jar task into your build.xml, for example...

<target name="jar">
    <mkdir dir="build/jar"/>
    <jar destfile="build/jar/YourApplication.jar" basedir="build/classes">
        <manifest>
            <attribute name="Main-Class" value="path.to.your.main.Class"/>
        </manifest>
    </jar>
</target>

...and schedule that from Jenkins.

Answer 2

You can run your ant targets from Jenkins. The process to generate jar isn't different. You can use an existing build*xml file to generate your jar file. You can schedule this as a job on Jenkins. I hope this helps!
