Update Jenkins Plugins via Artifactory

Using Jenkins Ask a question

Hi,

My Jenkins server is on a private network and I can’t get it to the internet. I have a Jfrog artifactory and I have added jenkins plugin website as remote repositories on the artifactory.

It can access https://mirrors.jenkins.io/plugins and access hpi files of all plugins.

I have searched a lot on this topic on the forums but have not been successful yet. I saw that I can do this by configuring a proxy server through Jenkins, but I have an artifactory, do I need to set up a proxy server in addition to this?

How can I make my Jenkins plugins go to artifactory remote repositories instead of trying to access the internet while upgrading them?

For example someone else having the same issue as me: Update Jenkins Plugins via Artifactory - Stack Overflow

I have seen many people who have experienced this situation, it would be very nice if jenkins could take action with this issue.

Many thanks in advance for your valuable answers.
Best Regards.

Have you found a solution?

For the poor souls arriving here with the same question: I had the same problem and decided to create an open source Maven plugin that simplifies the creation of the necessary files:

The plugin uses the original Jenkins sources and just adds a thin layer that makes it easier to create everything within a normal Maven build. Upload itself then can easily be done using the standard Maven “wagon:upload-single” plugin.
