Atlassian Marketplace Publishing

Our complete deployment process is driven by Gitlab CI/CD (before that, we were using Jenkins). Plugins for the Atlassian Marketplace used to be an exception for several years. Annoyed by this situation, we decided to develop a Maven plugin which integrates smoothly into Atlassian’s plugin build process and allows an easy deployment to the Marketplace. However, for us the last submission step (switching the version from “Private” to “Public”) remains manual.

The plugin is based on Atlassian’s Marketplace API Java client. Source code for the plugin is availabe on Bitbucket under GPLv3.

Integration

Insert into your pom.xml’s <plugins> section:

<plugins>
  ...
  <!-- Marketplace deployer -->
  <plugin>
    <groupId>com.zenofx.maven</groupId>
    <artifactId>marketplace-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <configuration>
      <username>user@example.com</username>
      <password>{token encrypted by mvn -ep}</password>
      <licenseType>GPL</licenseType>
      <paymentModel>FREE</paymentModel>
      <releaseSummary>Summary</releaseSummary>
    </configuration>
    <executions>
      <execution>
        <goals>
          <goal>createVersion</goal>
        </goals>
      </execution>
    </executions>
  </plugin>
  <!-- Switch off default deployer -->
  <plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-deploy-plugin</artifactId>
