how to deploy a .war file in jenkins?

Question

I have created a .war file in javascript using ANT.I deployed it in tomcat server. But I want to deploy it using jenkins.Please help Thanks in advance

Answer 1

There is a Deploy plugin for Jenkins. https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Deploy+Plugin

Out of curiosity, how (and perhaps more importantly why) does one "create a .war file in javascript using ANT"?

Answer 2

I'd add a deploy target to the build file. Then call that target from the job.
