20Build
21=====
22A JOSM plugin is built as a single jar. We use ant to build.
23
24See build.xml in this directory and update the plugin specific properties in the
25configuration section.

28Maintaining versions
29====================
30There are two versions maintained with each plugin:
31 1) the main version
32 This is the lowest JOSM version required by this plugin.
33 You have to manually set the plugins main version in the build script.
34 Set the property plugin.main.version in build.xml accordingly.
35
36 2) the build version
37 The build version is unique for every build of the plugin. It is equal
38 to the SVN revision of your plugin directory.
39
40 Both the main version and the build version are included in properties of the plugins
41 manifest:
42 Plugin-Version the build version
43 Plugin-Mainversion the main version
44
45 JOSM automatically detects whether a plugin needs to be upgraded. It compares the build
46 version of the currently installed plugin jar with the build version of the plugin jar in
47 the SVN. The main version is irrelevant for this process.
48
49 Making your plugin available to JOSM users
50 ===========================================
51 When a plugin jar is checked into SVN a script updates the plugins list on the JOSM wiki:
52 http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Plugins
53 JOSM retrieves the list of available plugins and their build versions from this list.
54
55 commit publish read
56 meta data meta data
57 Build ==> SVN =======> JOSM Wiki <======= JOSM
58 ^
59 ==================================
60 fetch current plugin jar
61
62 Note that you have to manually publish (commit) your plugin jar. There is no nightly build
63 in place. Everything else (pulishing meta data, updating plugins in the client) is then handled
64 by automatic processes.
