Would be helpful to have a installation possibility for this plugin like it is available here: https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-eclipse/wiki/Download-and-Install-Plugin-From-Zip

In situations where your are at your client and are not allowed to connect your eclipse to eclipse marketplace, but you have the possibility to use a browser for surfing.

I'm currently in such a situation :-(

What do you think?

If you can access the github directory I think its maybe much easier to import the github project export it as feature and install it:

Here are the steps in Eclipse:

File->Import->Projects from Git.
File->Export->Deployable Features (to a LOCAL_DIRECTORY)
Help -> Install -> Add... Button -> Local... Button and select the LOCAL_DIRECTORY onces more

that should hopefully work and by the way you are than ready to make pull requests ;-)

Liebe Grüße, Andreas

Hi Andreas, thanks for the hint. Unfortunately it's not working for me.

In Step 2 I don't see the option do export as "Deployable Features".

I have tried it in a different way, as Installation from a local zip, and saw that my eclipse on the client site has not the right "type". Because osgi.bundle and other dependencies are missing. I will clarify this first and close this issue for now.

Kind regards Alex

What also should work is to download the entire Repository to your local drive as zip - See button in the first screenshot. Afterwards you can install the plugin like in step 3 - but If you understand you right thats also not working in your Eclipse installation.

Please feel free to contact me again if there is something more I can do.

Grüße, Andreas
