Jenkins Blue Ocean Environments

Adds a page to Blue Ocean that displays what environments (Dev, QA, Prod) a pipeline has been deployed to.

Overview

It uses stage names to determine what constitutes a deploy to an environment. A successful "Development" step may mean that the pipeline has made it to Development. Since stage names are flexible, the stage names that represent Dev, QA, and Prod can be configured on the global configuration page. It is a comma delimited list of names.

Local Plugin Development Setup

2. Make sure mvn is install and is greater than 3 by using mvn --version.
