Plugins for JOSM

This is a list of all plugins available via the in JOSM integrated plugin manager. If you wrote a plugin and like JOSM to find it, it should be enough to add the plugin to the OpenStreetMap SVN and it will automatically appear on this page. If you cannot put your plugin into SVN then edit this page and insert a link to your plugin jar file into the comment section at the beginning of the page; after a few minutes your plugin will be downloaded and the MANIFEST file will be used to extract information for the table below.

Automatic Installation

Go to Edit-preferences-Plugins. Then click on the button "Download List" followed by "Update". Finally, enable all plugins you want to install.

Manual Installation

If the automatic way does not work you can install plugins manually by putting the .jar files in the plugins directory under the Josm directory.

• Under Windows, this is in C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\JOSM\plugins.
• Under Vista, the plugins are located in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\JOSM\plugins.
• On a Mac you will find the JOSM directory in the user directory /Users/username/.josm/plugins. The point "." in front of ".josm" indicates that this folder is invisible. To show the contents of this hidden folder, use the Finders Go to folder menu command (cmd-shift-G), and enter "~/.josm" in the dialog that pops up. Drag any plugins you'd like to install into the plugins folder. (You can also copy the plugin files using the command line.)

Now restart Josm and the plugins should show up here: Edit-preferences-Plugins. Activate the Plugin and re-start JOSM once more.
