-------------------------------------
> Make signing of plugins mandatory or remove it completely
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NETBEANS-2331
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2331
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: platform - Module System, updatecenters - Pluginportal
> Affects Versions: Next
> Reporter: Christian Lenz
> Priority: Major
>
> Atm the moment, the process is you can create and upload a plugin on the
> plugin page. Everything is fine and you need to go to that page if you want
> to download this plugin which is not signed. So you will not find it on the
> plugin manager of NetBeans.
> If you want to see it inside of the plugin manager inside NetBeans, you need
> to sign the plugin or you can add the catalg for unsigned plugins.
> The thing is, some or maybe most of plugin developers doesn't know to
> generate the keystore file or it is to complicated and often a pain in the
> ass.
> So my proposal is either we make it mandatory for Ant and Maven (Maybe Gradle
> too) to sign the plugin inside of the project settings where you can fill in
> the stuff, that is needed or we remove the signing stuff completely. Afaik VS
> Code or IntelliJ doesn't have such process. But only guessing.
> When I had a look into the docu of IntelliJ to create a plugin, I couldn't
> find an info for sigining a plugin.
> Another proposal, if we still want to have the sigining, should add the not
> signed plugins as default to NetBeans and show the user which plugins are
> signed and which not. That everyone can find the plugin inside of the
> NetBeans plugin manager and not on both, the page and manager. That is a pain
> in the ass.
