Plugin support via gradle #19

Closed nikolaievs closed 5 months ago

nikolaievs commented 1 year ago

Hello, I'm looking for a possibility to download protobuf plugin using gradle, so then usePlugin("protobuf") won't search on the local machine for the plugin. Is there is a solution for this? Best regards

rholshausen commented 1 year ago

I'm just trying to understand your requirements. We can create a Gradle task that will download and install the protobuf plugin, but it will install it to the local machine where usePlugin will look for it. Is this what you are asking, or are you asking if there is a way to use it without installing it on the local machine?

nikolaievs commented 1 year ago

Well, both options actually interesting. But, the main point is to have something similar to protobuf plugin where you can define which protoc to use, so you don't need to install it manually. So, the goal here - is that I will be able to clone the repo then just run ./gradlew clean build, and the build pass successfully without any other steps to do.

👋 Hi! The 'smartbear-supported' label has just been added to this issue, which will create an internal tracking ticket in PactFlow's Jira (PACT-816). We will use this to prioritise and assign a team member to this task. All activity will be public on this ticket. For now, sit tight and we'll update this ticket once we have more information on the next steps.

See our documentation for more information.

Pact-JVM 4.6.0 can now auto-install known plugins

YOU54F commented 5 months ago

Pact-JVM and Pact-Rust (and in turn users of it via the Pact FFI), now have the ability to auto download required plugins.

Outside of that, the pact-plugin-cli is available to install plugins manually.

We do not have plans for officially create a maven, or gradle plugin.

That being said, there is nothing stopping anyone in the community taking the time to create a maven or gradle plugin, to install Pact plugins.

You may wish to build it standalone, or integrate it into the Pact JVM project.

Closing due to this being a feature we don't plan on delivering
