Install Jenkins Plugin from Jenkins CLI

Question

Hi Guys,

I am new to Jenkins. I have configured Jenkins CLI in my Windows system. I want to install the Kubernetes Plugin in my Jenkins from CLI. How can I do that?

Hi@akhtar,

You need to tell your Plugin name in your Jenkins CLI command. It will automatically connect to your Jenkins with the help of the jenkins-cli.jar file and install the plugin. Use the below-given command to install your plugin.

$ java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s Jenkins_URL -webSocket install-plugin Kubernetes
Installing Kubernetes from update center

I hope this will help you.
