Thanks for the help Vincent.
I have the basics of a "My First Extension" tutorial by example.
https://github.com/cjdelisle/my-first-xwiki-extension
(It's very important to me that developing installable extensions be simple and
intuitive)
I'm trying to allow the user to deploy their extension to a local directory within
their git repository and then they could push that to github or equivalent and import
without having to ask that their key be included in maven.xwiki.org and deploying where
they could break something.
It seems to work:
https://raw.github.com/cjdelisle/my-first-xwiki-extension/master/repo/org/x…
Where I'm hitting a wall is on the import phase, I need to be able to import from an
arbitrary m2 repo in order for this technique to work. Is this possible with the EM as it
is now?
Well yes EM support any valid maven repository, sometime import takes
times when you have a lot of versions. Would need to debug it to
understand what's wrong.
Thanks,
Caleb

http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users Hi,
I'm looking to contribute an extension which is installable with the EM
and I can't find any documentation on it, if there is no documentation
I am willing to write it if someone will walk me through the process.
How do I go about getting published and how are dependencies declared?
3 choices:
1) Your extension is published in a maven repo (e.g. the XWiki public maven repo at
http//nexus.xwiki.org). This makes it installable directly by any XE instance. However
Maven repos are not searchable so users won't be able to search for your extension and
will need to enter the extension id/version in the Advanced Search.
2) Same as 1) but you wish to have your extension searchable. For this, it should be
available on extensions.xwiki.org. To do that all you need is to "Import" your
extension from the maven repo. This is the "import" action on
extensions.xwiki.org
3) Your extension is NOT in a maven repo. You need to contribute it on
extensions.xwiki.org and then follow the documentation to add dependencies (basically one
object per dep).
Feel free to document this. I think we could have a question mark icon on
extensions.xwiki.org just after "Contribute extension" and when you click on it,
it would go to a page listing what I've explained above, wdyt?
Thanks
-Vincent
