How to download jenkins-cli.jar?
The best place to download the Jenkins CLI jar is from your own Jenkins server. This means you’ll have the matching CLI version. Visit the /cli endpoint, such as http://yourserver.com/cli, and it will give you a link to download the jar (the /jnlpJars/jenkins-cli.jar endpoint). Download that jar.

Running commands against a secure Jenkins (basic auth or ssh keys)

If your Jenkins is secured, and it probably is so that you control who can create jobs, run jobs, view results, then the command above may fail and ask for credentials.
You have two options: provide –username & –password options to every command or provide -i option and provide the path to the ssh private key that matches the public key you provided to your user account.
For example:

$ java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://myjenkins help –username me –password mypassword
$ java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://myjenkins help -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa

Passing parameters when triggering a job build
To pass those same parameters via the CLI? You use the -p key=value flag for each parameter you want to pass.

So our finished product might look like:

$ java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://myjenkins build ‘Deploy XYZ App’ -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa -s -v -p target_env=api.cloudfoundry.com -p branch=master
