== 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, add your site to the list. The link in the first column should point to a direct download of the jar file and should be named exact like the plugin (without the .jar).

Column version should contain a version number if and only if the plugins manifest contain the attribute 'Plugin-Version' matching the version number string on this site. Under Linux, you can check out the josm/dist directory from SVN and run 

{{{  for i in *jar; do echo $i `unzip -c $i META-INF/MANIFEST.MF|grep Plugin-Version|cut -d: -f2`; done }}}

to display the "Plugin-Version" strings for each .jar file.

== 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. If JOSM complains that it can't download a plugin, please fix the link on this page's table (should point to a downloadable jar file) or report the problem to the plugin author.

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

On a MAC you will find the JOSM directory in the user directory "[username]/.josm/plugins" The point "." in front of "josm" indicates that this folder is invisible. So you will need to use a "Terminal" to move the plugin file(s) to it. (As MAC OS does not show hidden folders in the "Finder".) Here you go:

1. download the [plugin].jar file to the user directory: [username] (or copy it there with the "Finder" if you have already downloaded it elswhere)

2. open a "Terminal" (put "terminal" into spotlight and start it) - it will automatically open in your user directory

3. now move the plugin file to the plugin folder with this command: "mv [plugin].jar .josm/plugins/"

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