Need help with Create A Plugin Skeleton tutorial - dependency issues.

[Ken Wood]

I am trying to work my way thru the tutorial at

https://developer.atlassian.com/display/DOCS/Create+a+plugin+skeleton

I have created the skeletal 'refapp' plugin using the command atlas-create-refapp-plugin

and executed the atlas-run command, which results in

I just download the Atlassian SDK last week, surely it is current enough to have the right dependency references?

atlas-version

What do I need to do to get back on track? Disappointed that I can't even follow a simple tutorial without dependency issues right out of the gate...

So, ultimately, while I don't understand the failure (since there was no settings.xml file to mess up the repo access), cleaning the local ~/.m2/repository did solve the problem. Kudos to Mary for pointing me in the direction of the local repo.

The artifact does exist. Can you navigate to the repository with your browser?

https://maven.atlassian.com/content/groups/public/com/atlassian/refapp/atlassian-refapp/2.19.2/

I've also seen this issue if you have a local ~/.m2/settings.xml defined. To test if this is the problem, temporarily rename this file settings.xml.save and try atlas-run again.

[Ken Wood]

Yes, I can navigate to it with my browser.

No local .m2/settings.xml:

pushd ~/.m2
~/.m2
$ ls -al
total 12
drwxrwxr-x. 3 kwood kwood 4096 Jul 16 16:20 .
drwx------. 56 kwood kwood 4096 Jul 24 18:12 ..
drwxrwxr-x. 131 kwood kwood 4096 Jul 24 18:31 repository

I deleted the local repository (.m2/repository) and am trying again.

[Ken Wood]

deleting the repo and running atlas-compile again, this time it compiled. But, atlas-run never completes. It dumps over 7200 lines of log messages (so too long to cut and paste here). It begins with

and ends with a bunch of messages like this:

then just sits there and never does anything, i.e. I never see the refapp display.

Ken,

It looks like the APP started successfully. See this message:

[INFO] refapp started successfully in 34s at http://localhost.localdomain:5990/refapp

Did you try navigating to this location in your browser?

I will say atlas-run spits out a lot of data; it even spits out data while the application is running after a successful start. I think a "silent" mode would be a good thing to add.

[Ken Wood]

OK, with so much stuff coming out, I missed the line telling me to go to the browser with that URL, my bad!

I'll try that.

So, I tried another one:

https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Plugin+Tutorial+-+Writing+Gadgets+for+JIRA

which has the sources at

JIRA 5.0 plugin version: https://bitbucket.org/atlassian_tutorial/jira-gadget-2

So, I downloaded the source, and did 'atlas-compile' with the same kind of results:

BTW, I know my SDK is ok, I've have several of our own plugins that were internally developed for jira 4, and they compile fine (i.e. have no dependency issues), just trying to understand what I have to change to migrate them from Jira 4 to Jira 5, and can't even get Atlassian's examples to compile! Very frustrating...
