Netbeans plugin

[Siamak Sarmady <sa...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I was speaking over email with "Jacek Laskowski" about his netbeans plugin.

For sometimes I have been using Geronimo with Eclipse and I should say 
it is much more faster than Glasfish.

I am sure if the netbeans plugin can be offered many of Netbeans 
developers will use Geronimo over Glassfish and Tomcat.(and new version 
of jboss which used to be offered with NB5.5 is not ready)

Anyway, I wanted to see who is working on the project (besides Jacek) 
and what is the status?

I willing to help but I do not know what to do and where to start (I 
will try to run the current code available in repository for now)

Regards,
Siamak

Before I put it on a website (with screenshots), I'll write it here
for your comments and suggestions:

Here are the steps to run the plugin:

1. Check out the plugin's sources - they've got a directory structure
as netbeans created when I created the module (the plugin).

svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/sandbox/geronimo-netbeans-plugin

2. Open NetBeans IDE 6 (don't know whether the earlier versions work or not)

3. Ctrl+Shift+O to open the project. You should see NetBeans plugin
for Apache Geronimo node in the Projects window.

4. Once opened, right-click it and select Install/Reload in Target
Platform. It will run another NetBeans instance with the plugin
installed.

The plugin can create a new Geronimo server instance and start/stop
it. You can create a web application with Geronimo as a javaee5
application server, but if you start it it will not. That's what needs
to be done inthe first place. Once you get that developed I'm sure
you'll know what's next.

Ask when in doubt or need some additional information. I'm here to
help and get you up to speed with it. The more people work on it, the
sooner the plugin becomes ready to use. It took way too long to become
a viable competitor to the Eclipse plugin ;-)

Hi Jacek,

To speed up my understanding of the repository I would like to know if
you've got a small howto of the plugin with basical things like how to
install and use it and so on.

I also would like to know is you have got a roadmap of the project to know
what is done and which are the next steeps to investigate.

Best regards.
Josu.

Hi Josu,

Interesting?! Hmm, it's the best project one could dreamt of. If it is
not, it's because you're not part of the game yet ;-)

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/sandbox/geronimo-netbeans-plugin

Let me know what you need to get up to speed.

Hi all,

My name is Josu and I think that the project is really interesting.
I would like to know where is the repository of the plugin to probe it and
try to
help in the development of the project.

Best regards.
Josu

Jacek, Hello

- Sorry I can not find the repository anymore. Could you please mention 
the address.

- Is there a wiki page already? Where we can setup a page?

- You mentioned about documentation. Anything has been done on this?

Anyone, anywhere, anytime ;-) I'm still learning the stuff around
netbeans serverplugins development and although I've got some help
from the NetBeans team I haven't put much attention to it as it's not
as fancy as javaee 5 development and thus the veeery slow progress.

The plugin can register/start/stop Geronimo. You can create an
application with Geronimo as an execution environment, but when you
try to deploy it the process will blow up as the missing deployment
pieces are missing (not finished yet). That's where I think would be
great to get some support. Once it's done everything else seems to be
just a jfc/swing development and not necessarily geronimo related.
Netbeans 6.0 is just around the corner and it'd be great if the plugin
is available at the time netbeans's on the shelves.

I'm not sure how much time I'll be able to put on the missing
deployment piece during the weekend, but would love if there's someone
who could join my efforts and help me out finishing it. Rather than
writing documentation on this or that, just ask questions and I'll
answer them and put on the wiki. I think there's no better way to
create a doc like doing it by users themselves.

Hi Siamak,
I don't recall seeing anyone but Jacek working on the Netbeans plugin.  
I'm sure he'd love to have some help. I think it would be *great* to  
have a Neatbeans plugin in addition to our Eclipse plugin.

Perhaps Jacek can fill us in on where things stand with the plugin and  
identify next steps.
