Mathieu,

why using strong words and disrespect other community people's work like this? This does not help in any way making things better.

Having said this, to the topic: users often have difficulties even to get OFBiz running while it seams easiest for us developers. Just read the users list for reference.

Having everything available and be done automatically helps people to get things running easier. By removing these features we would make things more complicated for them.

More advanced people who are familiar with the mentioned techniques can use them anyway.

Regards,

Michael

No need to wait for Maven plugins before acting responsibly. :-)

A preferable solution would be to simply remove the
‘push/pull/removePlugin*’ stuff from our build system which is the
reason why we are discussing keeping this “Github SVN” hack initially.

IMO people can manage their plugins more conveniently by directly
running the “installation” command of their choice ‘git clone’, ‘svn
checkout’, ‘ln -s’, ... in their plugins directory without needing OFBiz
build system to do it poorly for them.

Hello Deepak, all,

I do not have a strong opinion about separating plugins into independent
git repositories but here are my thought :

Plugins integration in OFBiz is intended to be used with a maven
repository that hosts the plugin releases for the users. See as a
reference the ‘OFBiz Plugins tasks’ or README.adoc about ‘OFBiz plugin
system’.

We did not implemented an official maven repository for plugin releases,
so there is no simple way to install a plugin without using VCS. There
might be tasks to be done to have an nice answer to how an user can
install a sole plugin from a downloaded release archive.
