The Exalead CloudView Eclipse plugin is provided to help you develop and deploy plugins in Eclipse Indigo 3.7 or later. The documentation is packaged with this plugin and is available at http://eclipse.exalead.com
Which Mashup components can you develop?
Use the Exalead CloudView Eclipse plugin to develop and deploy as zip files your own Mashup components:
• Widgets
• Feeds
• Feed Triggers
• Mashup Triggers
• Pre-Request Triggers
• Security Providers
You can also develop custom components for Exalead CloudView core. For example, connectors, document processors, prefix handlers, security sources, etc.
Why use it?
• Easy deployment – If you use your Mashup UI application within your Exalead CloudView environment, you can package your plugin with customized components to be exported and deployed automatically on the selected Exalead CloudView instance.
If you want to deploy the Mashup UI outside of the Exalead CloudView environment, this avoids rebuilding and redeploying the 360-standalone-mashup-ui.war package for each customized item.
• Quick export – You can package your plugin with classes that you want to export and then export it as a zip file on a selected path.
• Manage installs – You can list the deployed plugins on a selected instance of Exalead CloudView and then select the plugins to remove.
