deploying build artifacts from a previous build.

[Colin Kincaid Williams]

Hi,

I'm part of a project that is currently using a set of scripts to deploy projects manually by providing a build number. The scripts dig through the filesystem on the jenkins server, and copy and deploy the files needed in place on a host. Unfortunately these simple scripts are a mess. 

 It seems easy enough for me to add a post build step to auto deploy build artifacts. However is there a nice way to do similar for previous builds?

 It would be nice to click on the build number and have it execute the a task to deploy the build artifacts. I'm looking for some better way to integrate this functionality. I do notice the redeploy artifacts has a different workflow intended.

I had a look at some of the Jenkins plugins, but didn't see any that covered this specific functionality.  Is my approach a terrible hack?

If you make sure to archive the required artifacts and not just manually crawl the workspace, then it would not seem a dirty hack to me to be able to do it on a previous build.

Cheers
