I'm thinking about writing a couple consumer plugins but I have some basic questions before I start.
First, it is my understanding that repository consumer plugins are the means used to implement the items listed as "policies" for proxy connectors. Is that correct? Second, do these plugins run every time a new artifact is pulled in through that proxy? If I created a plugin, how would I configure it for proxies? for local repositories? It doesn't look like there is anything in the UI that would reflect upon my class and render a UI for it. Would I just configure it in the archiva.xml? Is there a way to feed in configurable properties to a plugin? How would that be expressed in the UI/XML that is used to configure it?
