For Existing Jenkins Users
Managing Plugins
Evergreen is a curated distribution of a large collection of useful features provided by Evergreen, Jenkins core, and plugins. This entire distribution is tested and deployed together as a cohesive artifact.
To ensure the stability of the instance, Evergreen intentionally disables the ability to install or remove additional plugins to the instance.
Configuring Tools
Jenkins Evergreen is designed for Jenkins Pipeline first and foremost, including the built-in Docker support which makes using custom tools for a Pipeline much easier, for example:
pipeline {
agent {
docker { image 'node:7-alpine' }
}
stages {
stage('Test') {
steps {
sh 'node --version'
}
}
}
}Accordingly, configuring legacy "Tools" in Jenkins has been disabled.
