After making changes to the plugin repo, follow the below steps to successfully deploy the changes to Jenkins

• Always work on a feature branch (DO NOT work and push changes directly from main branch).

• Run the below command to locally build and test your plugin.

mvn clean package

This creates a HPI file that can be installed on your Jenkins server (HPI file will be in target/cloudaeye.hpi

• Fix lint issues (if any)

mvn spotless:apply

This is important because Jenkins build fails if there are any lint issues

• Push the changes and create a PR to the main branch.

  NOTE: Make sure to apply appropriate labels to the PR that falls into the interesting category actions to automatically trigger a release

• Once all github checks pass, merge the PR to deploy the changes to Jenkins
