Repository

The Eclipse repositories for this plugin.

Production

Release update site.

Production Zip

Download the repo in a zip file from the latest release at the releases page. The current release is 4.0.0

Staging

The staging repository is also at plugins.gwtproject.org, under the nightly version. At this time, these are signed with a self-signed certificate.

Development

Importing

Simply use Maven to import all the plugins and modules.

  • Use Eclipse Import and choose import with Existing Maven projects. Don't forget to select recursive import.
  • Select all the projects and import them. This will create the .project, .classpath and .settings files. If some exist, they will be overwritten.

Target Definition

The target defintion build is based off of the Google Cloud Tools. Follow their instructions to build.

  • Install the target.tbd plugin - Install the targets plugin.
  • Once the plugin is installed, right click on the target.tbd file and set the target.
  • Note: The targets will have to be updated by setting the targets. This will regenerate the Eclipse target files.

Build

To build, Apache Maven and Java 17 are required. Invoke mvn verify to build and test. The resulting update site can be found in repo/target/repository for local deployment and testing.

Release

Creating a release requires signing artifacts. Set the following environment variables before running mvn verify:

  • SIGN_KEYSTORE - Path to a pkcs12 keystore that contains a key to use to sign this release
  • SIGN_STOREPASS - Passphrase for the keystore
  • SIGN_ALIAS - Alias of the key to use to sign the release
  • SIGN_KEYPASS - Passphrase for the key
  • SIGN_TSA - URL of a Time stamp authority to use to sign this release

At this time, releases are performed manually. The releases deployed to the marketplace will be signed with the certificate for plugins.gwtproject.org.

Deploy

Releases are uploaded as zips to the release part of the Github project page, and also deployed at https://plugins.gwtproject.org/eclipse/gwt-eclipse-plugin as Eclipse update sites. Releases will be added to the GWT-Plugin page on the Eclipse Marketplace.

Testing

There are a couple of archetypes that are used to test.
