Jenkins/Maven - How to build multiple jobs in a folder

[sarora1]

Currently, I am building and deploying one job like this 

deploy -Pcloud-publisher -X -pl jobs/process/quickstart_dev/file_to_file_0.1 -fae -amd

Is it possible to build only the jobs under folder quickstart_dev with something like this

deploy -Pcloud-publisher -X -pl jobs/process/quickstart_dev/* -fae -amd

IMO you can't do exactly that. I see 2 workarounds:

a) create a master job per folder which embedds the others as subjobs (i.e. dependencies) and then deploy -pl -amd that one only

or

b) add an include instruction (with relative path and stars) inside your POM:

Option a is what I ended up doing but good to know about option b.
