Simon would like a page that shows what extensions and services are installed in the registry and allows one to look at and potentially install new plug-ins Something like... [type a plugin url here] [install button] show metadata here PluginX Extensions Extension1Name Extension1Point Awad of json Extension2Name Extension2Point A wad of json Services Service1RefId InterfaceName Properties Service2RefId InterfaceName Properties
Simon Kaegi - Nov 15, 2010 1:18 P.M. Yes that looks about right. In addition to Extensions and Services might be other name/value properties that we want to display.
Susan F. McCourt - Dec 7, 2010 1:28 P.M. Moving to M5, the EAS and other issues were higher prio.
Mark MacDonald - Jan 6, 2011 5:45 P.M. I just pushed a first attempt to the repo. You can try it out by going to http://localhost:8080/view-registry.html. Currently it only shows the plugins & services that I've registered in the glue code (view-registry.js). In general, however, the widget can visualize any instance of eclipse.Registry. It'll be more useful for development when I come up with an easy way to inject the widget into other pages, so you can see if the plugins/services you're working with look as you expected.
Mark MacDonald - Jan 6, 2011 5:46 P.M. Also, I hit an issue when using Firefox where a service's serviceType seems to be missing some information. Will ask Richard about this. For now, Chrome gives the best result.
Mark MacDonald - Jan 7, 2011 11:23 A.M. Ignore Comment #4: the problem I observed was due to stale plugin data in my Firefox localstore.
This was released awhile ago. We can open new bugs for any further enhancements to the plugins page.
