Specify a separate location for settings.xml in Jenkins

I want to specify a different location for settings.xml for the maven build other than the default one (<USER_HOME>/.m2/settings.xml).

I have tried the -s flag but it is not working. Is there any way to do this?

I found an easy way to do this..

Go to the 'Build' Section of the job and click "Advanced". There is a 'Settings File' option there. Specify the location your 'settings.xml' file.

The jenkins managed script plugin allows you to manage multiple maven settings files. Once it is installed, you can add configurations in Manage > Manage Files > Add new config > [Global] Maven Settings File where you store the configuration.

In the job configurationn in the Build Configuration Settings check Provide Configuration Files and select the settings.xml in Managed Files > File.

Actually -s flag works. We use it maven jobs.

Under Build section add Invoke top level Maven targets and set Goals to [your goals] -s [path/to/settings.xml] (e.g. clean deploy -s /some/path/settings.xml)
