The plugin is based on a Maven build. Select the Jenkins target and build the project. A target folder is generated. The plugin is packaged as hpi file, e.g. target/build-project.hpi

To install the Jenkins Plugin, go to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Advanced. The direct link would be something like https://<your-jenkins>/pluginManager/advanced. Scroll down to Upload Plugin. Select the plugin .hpi file and click Upload.

A restart of Jenkins might be needed.

Afterwards, the plugin is listed under the Installed section at https://<your-jenkins>/pluginManager/installed.

    stage('Run plugin') {
