how to install Hudson Jython plug-in

Question

Following chapter 18 of Definitive Guide to Jython...

http://www.jython.org/jythonbook/en/1.0/TestingIntegration.html

... it talks about downloading Hudson, which I did, running the war file, which I did, looking at the page at localhost:8080, which I did... but then it says

Before creating jobs, we will install the Jython plug-in. Click on the Manage Hudson link on the left-hand menu. Then click Manage Plug-ins. Now go to the Available tab. You will see a very long list of plug-ins (we told you this was the greatest Hudson strength!) Find the Jython Plug-in

... I don't know what left-hand menu they mean... and there is no Jython plug-in listed on the page. Presumably due to Hudson having moved on since the last update to this page of the Jython Book... can anyone tell me what to do?

Answer 1

I hope you are using Hudson-3.X. You can install this plugin as follows. In the main Hudson page click on Manage Hudson.

Select the option Manage Plugins

Select the tab Available followed by the tab Others. You will find Jython Plugin here.
