Goals
Strengthen the Ecosystem
• Make it easier for users to find plugins
• Make it easier for plugin developers to get plugins out there
The problem
Good plugins are hard to find
• Scattered around different Atlassian and third party sites
• Infrequently updated, inconsistently displayed
• Little or no feedback for user reviews, amount of usage, etc.
Where we’re coming from…
And where we’ve gone…
Demonstration
Other Changes
• A single repository for all product plugins
• Plugin xml etc no longer served by legacy repository
• Developers no longer have to worry about editing XML metadata in SVN
• Confluence.atlassian.com (CAC) still used for documentation, not for primary plugin browsing
• Interaction with the Plugin Exchange Manager…
Plugin Exchange Manager • Universal plugin manager for all Atlassian products
• Interacts directly with Plugin Exchange Server to query for available plugins, compatibility, etc.
• Allows you to browse Plugin catalog from within the application
• Users see the same content, ratings, reviews and links that are in PAC. Authors only have to maintain one set of data.
