maven-plugin

Jenkins plugin for building Maven 2/3 jobs. See Maven Project Plugin on Jenkins' Wiki for more information.

Version history

See the changelog

**

Maven jobs and Java versions compatibility** : Because java serialized classes are exchanged between Jenkins Controller and Maven Jobs it is required that the JVM used to launch Maven is superior or equal to the version of Java for which Jenkins Controller is built for.

• Jenkins >= 1.520 requires Java 6 thus Maven jobs must be launched with Java >= 6.
• Jenkins >= 1.612 requires Java 7 thus Maven jobs must be launched with Java >= 7.
• Jenkins >= 2.54 requires Java 8 thus Maven jobs must be launched with Java >= 8.

See also JENKINS-18403, JENKINS-28294

If Jenkins detects that you are trying to use a JDK older than the controller prerequisite, it automatically reconfigure your build to use the JDK on which your agent is running. It displays in your build logs a message like :

ERROR: ================================================================================
ERROR: Invalid project setup: hudson/maven/AbstractMavenProcessFactory$ConfigureOriginalJDK : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0
ERROR: [JENKINS-18403][JENKINS-28294] JDK 'j6' not supported to run Maven projects.
ERROR: Maven projects have to be launched with a Java version greater or equal to the minimum version required by the controller.
ERROR: Use the Maven JDK Toolchains (plugin) to build your maven project with an older JDK.
ERROR: Retrying with agent Java and setting compile/test properties to point to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home/.
ERROR: ================================================================================

But due to the remoting upgrade in Jenkins 2.27+ this workaround doesn't work anymore if your agent or maven job is using Java < 7 - JENKINS-40990 (Because remoting is compiled for Java 7)

Known issues are listed in Jira

Historically this plugin was released alongside Jenkins core releases. 2.0 releases up to 2.204.1 saw this plugin released separately, but still bundled with Jenkins, although not always in the newest version. See Stop bundling Maven plugin and Subversion plugin with Jenkins.

This plugin provides an advanced integration for Maven 2/3 projects.

Even if Jenkins provides natively a Maven builder to use a build step in classical Jenkins jobs (freestyle, ...) this plugin provides a more advanced integration with specific a specific job type providing uniq features like:

• Automatic configuration of reporting plugins (Junit, Findbugs, ...)
• Automatic triggering across jobs based on SNAPSHOTs published/consumed
• Incremental build - only build changed modules
• Build modules in parallel on multiple executors/nodes
• Post build deployment of binaries only if the project succeeded and all tests passed
• ...

See Building a maven2 project for more information on how to use this.
