Submitting M2E marketplace entries
Where to start
- Open a bugreport in m2e bugzilla with "[catalog] your extension name" in the subject.
- In the bugreport please provide the following information about your m2e extension
- name, description and summary (don't ask what's the difference between the last two)
- license and provider information
- p2 repository and installable unit information of the extension (see below)
- sample project and steps to see your extension in action
- optionally, url of the extension source repository.
Existing submissions are listed in this XML descriptor
Maven repositories
Due to bug 346830, support for resolving m2e marketplace catalog entries from Maven repositories has been disabled.
P2 repositories
For m2e extensions published in p2 repositories we need information about p2 repository url, installable unit id of the feature or bundle to be installed and installable unit id of a bundle that contains lifecycle-mapping-metadata.xml
Make sure extension's installable unit contains applicable license information. In practical terms, this means extension must have feature.xml files with <license/> element.
It is assumed that contents on provided p2 repository will not change in the future unless corresponding m2e marketplace catalog entry is removed or amended.
