How to dynamically set the local maven repo for a jenkins job

[Samith Dassanayake]

Hi all,

I'm trying to create a jenkins job using the Jenkins remote access API[1]. What I want to achieve is, I want to specify the local maven repository for the job, using the job configuration(config.xml) which I send to the create job API. How can I achieve that? What are xml attributes that I should have added(or changed)?

Please advice

Thanks,

Can you define a job (using the web interface, interactively) and then copy the resulting config.xml as your starting point?

I've stored copies of config.xml so that I can watch the evolution of the job definition over time, and it has worked quite well.

Hi Mark,

The problem is I want to define manually a local maven repository folder instead of the defined in the global, per a job. To do that what are the plugins that I have to install and what are the configurations that I should change?

Thanks,

Samith

The maven build step that is available with a freestyle project includes an Advanced button.  I believe that Advanced panel includes options which will allow you to specify a maven repository per job.
