Guide to Repository Layout and Build Promotion with Artifactory

Usual story, new to artificatory and looking for a jump start.

Can anyone point me at a decent how-to post for using Artifactory (free version) with Jenkins in a deployment pipeline?

I figure I'm likely to want to:

  1. setup several repos for dev thru production (any standards for this?)
  2. have jenkins publish artifacts to the first repo using the artifactory plugin - limiting the amount of builds kept in artifactory.
  3. promote builds from one repo to next as release to next environment - again deleting older builds

I just need a good guide/example to get started...

  1. Did you check the User Guide? It covers all your questions perfectly well. Here are:
    1. Creating repositories (re the standards - the preconfigured repos reflect the standards).
    2. Working with Jenkins
    3. Jenkins Release Management
  2. Keep in mind that all the promotion functionality is available in Pro version only. That includes both simple move operation (not recommended for promotion pipeplines) and extremely powerful release management, based on build integration with Jenkins Artifactory plugin.
