In this how-to guide, you will learn how to upload artifacts to Artifactory in CircleCI.

Introduction

Artifactory has documentation explaining how to use their REST API.

Below are some sample projects showing how to best use CircleCI and Artifactory together. Ensure that you have created your repository before starting this example, otherwise CircleCI will not have a place to store your dependencies.

Artifactory plugins

Popular tools like Maven and Gradle have Artifactory plugins, and can deploy to Artifactory using their respective deploy commands.

JFrog CLI

If you want to use the JFrog CLI, you can install it by following the steps below.

1. Add JFrog to your configuration

Add the following to your .circleci/config.yml:

- run:
    name: Install jFrog CLI
    command: curl -fL https://getcli.jfrog.io | sh

2. Configure credentials

Now you need to configure JFrog to use CircleCI credentials securely. CircleCI configures the client to use $ARTIFACTORY_URL, along with $ARTIFACTORY_USER and $ARTIFACTORY_APIKEY. These can be entered under Project Settings->Environment Variables. Configure the CLI to use these settings:

- run: ./jfrog config add <named_server_config> --artifactory-url $ARTIFACTORY_URL --user $ARTIFACTORY_USER --apikey $ARTIFACTORY_APIKEY --interactive=false

3. Upload JAR files (optional)

If you would like to upload JAR files use the following example:

- run: ./jfrog rt u "multi*/*.jar" <artifactory_repo_name> --build-name=<name_you_give_to_build> --build-number=$CIRCLE_BUILD_NUM --flat=false

4. Upload WAR files (optional)

If you would like to upload WAR files use the following example:

- run: ./jfrog rt u "multi*/*.war" <artifactory_repo_name> --build-name=<name_you_give_to_build> --build-number=$CIRCLE_BUILD_NUM --flat=false

Full configuration example

The full .circleci/config.yml file would look something like the following:

version: 2.1
jobs:
  upload-artifact:
    docker:
      - image: cimg/openjdk:19.0.1
    working_directory: ~/repo
    steps:
      - checkout
      - run: mvn dependency:go-offline
      - run:
          name: maven build
          command: |
            mvn clean install
      - run:
          name: Install JFrog CLI
          command: curl -fL https://getcli.jfrog.io | sh
      - run:
          name: Push to Artifactory
          command: |
            ./jfrog config add <named_server_config> --artifactory-url $ARTIFACTORY_URL --user $ARTIFACTORY_USER --apikey $ARTIFACTORY_APIKEY --interactive=false
            ./jfrog rt u <path/to/artifact> <artifactory_repo_name> --build-name=<name_you_give_to_build> --build-number=$CIRCLE_BUILD_NUM
            ./jfrog rt bce <name_you_give_to_build> $CIRCLE_BUILD_NUM  # collects all environment variables on the agent
            ./jfrog rt bp <name_you_give_to_build> $CIRCLE_BUILD_NUM  # attaches ^^ to the build in artifactory
