Hello, I had a docker file to generate a docker image with the desired plugins installed. That docker file was using `install-plugins.sh` script. But after I downloaded the latest jenkins docker image, it has stoped working and gives me the following error: `install-plugins.sh has been removed, please switch to jenkins-plugin-cli`  
But I have not been able to see how to run the jenkins cli during docker build. Could anybody provide a small dockerfile example so I can build my docker with the desired plugins?

My current dockerfile is the follwoing:

```auto
FROM jenkins/jenkins:lts-jdk11
LABEL maintainer="my-email@my-domain.com"
ENV JENKINS_USER my_user
ENV JENKINS_PASS my_password
ENV JAVA_OPTS -Djenkins.install.runSetupWizard=true
RUN /usr/local/bin/install-plugins.sh bitbucket-build-status-notifier atlassian-jira-software-cloud docker-plugin docker-workflow blueocean

```

Thank you very much.

The Jenkins documentation for [installing Jenkins with Docker](https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/installing/docker/#on-macos-and-linux) includes a snippet like the following example Dockerfile:

```nohighlight
FROM jenkins/jenkins:2.346.3-jdk11
RUN jenkins-plugin-cli --plugins "blueocean:1.25.6 docker-workflow:1.29"

```

The [Jenkins 2.346.2 upgrade guide](https://www.jenkins.io/doc/upgrade-guide/2.346/#upgrading-to-jenkins-lts-2-346-2) also notes that `install-plugins.sh` has been replaced.

I am trying this approach using a dockerfile but facing issue with plugins update site. I am using a plugins.txt file. I have tried from my client machine which is behind a proxy and also from my EC2 instance, EC2 doesn’t have any proxies, i am getting the same issues from both the servers.

Dockerfile:

```auto
FROM jenkins/jenkins:lts-jdk11

COPY --chown=jenkins:jenkins plugins.txt /usr/share/jenkins/ref/plugins.txt

#RUN /usr/local/bin/install-plugins.sh < /usr/share/jenkins/ref/plugins.txt

RUN jenkins-plugin-cli -f /usr/share/jenkins/ref/plugins.txt && \
echo 2.0 > /usr/share/jenkins/ref/jenkins.install.UpgradeWizard.state

```

Error Logs:

```auto
