Copy artifact in Artifactory to a remote repository

I have the following setup:

• Development server for continuous build with Hudson, Maven and Artifactory up and running.
• I am able to build an artifact by Maven, and let Hudson deploy it to Artifactory.

However, I would like to do the following:

1. Select an artifact in Artifactory on the local build server.
2. Deploy that artifact to a remote repository without doing a new build.

The reason I want to do that is, that the first server is a development server where new artifacts are changed at will. The other server / repository is the public visible server for all artefacts of the company.

I know that I开发者_JAVA百科 am able to create a second build job, but that would be a duplication, and Hudson is only able to manage one Artifactory repository at one time. I could deploy that artifact by hand to a different URL, but this is error prune and I need a login on the build server and have to use the shell to do that.

Has anyone an idea how to finally reach the goal?

If I understood your question correctly it looks like a good scenario for User Plugin. It should be straightforward, you select the needed artifacts using the searches object, and then execute REST PUT call to put them on the remote server.

The Maven Stage plugin seems to support this case: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-stage-plugin/usage.html

but I'm not sure if it works correctly. I'm working on it currently, so if it doesn't work perhapse I will find time to correct it.
