| = Plugins |
| |
| The Gerrit server functionality can be extended by installing plugins. |
| |
| [[installation]] |
| == Plugin Installation |
| Plugin installation is as easy as dropping the plugin jar into the |
| `$site_path/plugins/` folder. It may take |
| link:config-gerrit.html#plugins.checkFrequency[a few minutes] until |
| the server picks up new and updated plugins. |
| |
| Plugins can also be installed via |
| link:rest-api-plugins.html#install-plugin[REST] and |
| link:cmd-plugin-install.html[SSH]. |
| |
| [[development]] |
| == Plugin Development |
| |
| How to develop plugins is described in the link:dev-plugins.html[ |
| Plugin Development Guide]. |
| |
| If you want to share your plugin under the link:licenses.html#Apache2_0[ |
| Apache License 2.0] you can host your plugin development on the |
| link:https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com[gerrit-review] Gerrit |
| Server. You can request the creation of a new Project by email |
| to the link:https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/repo-discuss[Gerrit |
| mailing list]. You would be assigned as project owner of the new plugin |
| project so that you can submit changes on your own. It is the |
| responsibility of the project owner to maintain the plugin, e.g. to |
| make sure that it works with new Gerrit versions and to create stable |
| branches for old releases. |
| |
| [[core-plugins]] |
| == Core Plugins |
| |
| Core plugins are packaged within the Gerrit war file and can easily be |
| installed during the link:pgm-init.html[Gerrit initialization]. |
| |
| The core plugins are developed and maintained by the Gerrit maintainers |
| and the Gerrit community. |
| |
| Note that the documentation and configuration links in the list below are |
| to the plugins' master branch. Please refer to the appropriate branch or |
| revision for the Gerrit version you are using. |

| [[replication]] |
| === replication |
| |

| [[singleusergroup]] |
| === singleusergroup |

| == Other Plugins |
| |
| Besides core plugins there are many other Gerrit plugins available. This Gerrit home |
| link:https://www.gerritcodereview.com/plugins.html[page for plugins] lists them. |
