Jenkins can be installed using the Homebrew package manager. Homebrew formula: jenkins-lts This is a package supported by a third party which may be not as frequently updated as packages supported by the Jenkins project directly. Sample commands: Install the latest LTS version: brew install jenkins-lts. Jenkins may NOT work with Java version 9.x. This was the first problem I struggled with. If you have the same problem, download JDK 8u152 and install it. Passing Jenkins launcher parameters. Arguments you pass to docker running the jenkins image are passed to jenkins launcher, so you can run for example: $ docker run jenkins -version. This will dump Jenkins version, just like when you run jenkins as an executable war. You also can define jenkins arguments as JENKINSOPTS.
For Mac: If you want to install Jenkins CLI in the Mac operating system, you can use brew to install it. Brew tap jenkins-zh/jcli. Brew install jcli. Brew: It is an installer to install Jenkins or Jenkins CLI on Mac operating system. It is also known as Homebrew. Here are some commands related to brew, and Jenkins is given below: To install.
This plugin allows you to use MSBuild to build .NET and Visual Studio projects.
Usage
To use this plugin, specify the location directory of MSBuild.exe on Jenkin's configuration page. The MSBuild executable is usually situated in a subfolder of C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFramework. The Visual Studio 2017 Community version of 'msbuild.exe' is located in 'C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio2017CommunityMSBuild15.0Bin' If you have multiple MSBuild versions installed, you can configure multiple executables.

Then, on your project configuration page, specify the name of the build file (.proj or .sln) and any command line arguments you want to pass in. The files are compiled to the directory where Visual Studio would put them as well.

Troubleshooting
- When using Command Line Arguments, bear in mind that special characters are treated like in Unix, so they will need to be escaped using the backslash.
