I'm pretty sure it expects to pull the repo data over an http connection
(Port 80). So you will need an internal web server. There is a version
of apache called XAMP that will run from a usb stick or hard drive, and
doesn't take an install. But you're better off just talking to your IT
people and getting a small internal only website from them.
Thanks,

Hello Gary,
Thank you for your answer. I see that you mention my webserver. But, we
don't have one, and I don't have administration rights for setting one. I
was trying to use the regular paths to both plugin.xml and zip files, but
qgis is not able to read the xml.
I was also tried another approach putting both xml and zips in a dropbox
folder, and get their public web links. (Using ?dl=1 in the end, one can
make those files downloadable)
In that case I'm able to connect to my repository, but no plugins are
listed.
Thanks,
Alexandre Neto
PS: My xml looks like this:
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?>
<?xml-stylesheet type = "text/xsl" href = "plugins.xsl" ?>
<plugins>
<pyqgis_plugin name = "AdicionaAccoes" version = "0.1">
<description> Adiciona accoes </ description>
<homepage></ homepage>
<qgis_minimum_version> 1.8 </ qgis_minimum_version>
<file_name> AdicionaAccoes.zip </ file_name>

It's simple to set up a repo on your network. First create an XML file
that describes your plugin(s) and the download location. Here is an example:
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?>
<?xml-stylesheet type='text/xsl' href='/contributed.xsl' ?>
<plugins>
<pyqgis_plugin name='ScriptRunner' version='0.71'>
<description>Run Python scripts </description>
<version>0.71</version>
<qgis_minimum_version>1.8</qgis_minimum_version>
<homepage></homepage>
<file_name>scriptrunner.zip</file_name>

<update_date>None</update_date>
<experimental>True</experimental>
</pyqgis_plugin>
</plugins>
Put this on your web server somewhere, then make sure you put the plugin
package in the download_url location.
Last step is to add your repo to the plugin installer, using the URL to
your plugins.xml.
Please consider contributing any plugins you create that may have broader
interest to the the community.
Thanks,

I'm developing a toolbar with several python tools for one of our
projects. They are very data especific tools, and therefore not interesting
to realease as plugins in the official repository. Yet, I would like that
my working colleagues could install (and update) it using the Python plugin
manager.
Is it possible to create a local repository (on our local network)? how?
Thanks,
Alexandre Neto
