How to publish logs in Jenkins?

Question

I am trying to use Jenkins to run a script on Linux. The script will run on a Linux slave, generate some log files in Jenkins working directory and tar file in a dedicated place on the slave build server.

Is there a way to publish these log files and tar file to the build result, so they can be inspected/downloaded from the build result page.

Answer 1

Use the "Archive the artfacts" option in the post-build steps of your Jenkins job configuration and specify the paths to the files you want to save. They will then be linked on the build page under "Last successful artifacts".
