| * Create a remote repo named Jenkins-update | |
| * Create a local repo named jenkins-update-center | |
| * Get the update-center.json from repo Jenkins-update to local and modify the URL from 'http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/' to my own URL 'https://artifacts.xxx.com/artifactory/Jenkins-update/' in update-center.json, then put update-center.json into local repo. | |
| ``` | |
| #!/bin/sh | |
| curl -L -o /tmp/update-center.json http://localhost:8081/artifactory/Jenkins-update-cache/update-center.json | |
| sed -i 's#http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/#https://artifacts.xxx.com/artifactory/Jenkins-update/#g' /tmp/update-center.json | |
| curl -L -uuser:pass -T /tmp/update-center.json "http://localhost:8081/artifactory/jenkins-update-center/update-center.json" | |
| ``` | |
| Change the default update site from 'http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/' to 'https://artifacts.xxx.com/artifactory/jenkins-update-center/update-center.json' in Jenkins |
This isn't really enough. The update-center.json also includes a hash signing that will be out of sync if you just change the URL content in the file. You need to re-sign the file in the same manner and also then configure your jenkins servers to trust that signing certificate (if not public CA based - that is a default update on the underlying JVM cacerts).
I have used this method for a static mirroring of the Jenkins update site I have made for my environment. You would need to do this process on a cron schedule to update the json file probably daily or so since it is a dynamic index file of the update site. This would not be just a one time upload to a local repo like this. I would probably recommend to extend the above to include a virtual repo to include the local and remote as described able and point Jenkins at the virtual repo where it would find the json file and then be able to request the packages as well.
