I appreciate your suggestion. Under normal conditions, a *new* plugin would be downloaded through Jenkins. Also, any upgrades would be downloaded through Jenkins.
Our motivation is, what if our server goes down, and we have to get a new one up right away? We want to create a new Linux box, install Jenkins, SVN checkout what we had, retrieve the same version plugins we had, then bring up Jenkins. Now, make it easy enough that a non-Jenkins user, a low-level tech, or just about anybody can do it. Chris Carlson Sr. Software Engineer Zodiac Inflight Innovations 2929 E. Imperial Hwy.

If you go down the route of downloading HPI/JPI files yourself, you will lose the benefit of dependency handling that Jenkins provides. You will have to download *all* necessary plugins (not just the top-level list you want to install), and when you want to upgrade any plugin you'll need to be sure that its depedencies are met and that it does not break dependencies for other plugins. This is all manageable, of course, but seems like a great deal of extra work when you can just use jenkins-cli to tell Jenkins 'install plugin XYZ' and let it handle that stuff. ----- Original Message ----- From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com> To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com> At: Aug 19 2013 15:13:44 Woohoo!
