Hi
We have our cloud Jira app in marketplace and we want to create data center version as requested by our customer. Is there a step by step guide on how to develop Jira app for DC. Some of the question i have.
Does Atlassian provide free developer license for DC version like cloud?
Do I need to host in my Data Center?
What is the tool/framework like ForgeUI for cloud equivalent that is latest in DC development?
Be warned some of the documentation and links won’t work. If you notice that, feel free to mention it. We address the docs when we notice issues.
Learning P2 and OSGi development is a little bit hard at first, it’s not a particularly well maintained road since most new apps are Forge. Once you get the hang of it though it’s still very powerful, even though there isn’t as much done for you.
If you need a frontend, after you’ve built your first plugin, Atlas FE should make the setup a bit simpler.
It’s not good code by any stretch, but Developer Toolbox is open source and definitely will work if you run mvn amps:run -Dproduct=jira

When you use our SDK there’s a trial license pre-installed.

You don’t need to host your own instance of it unless you wish to use it for your own work. When you use the SDK the products will startup and you shut them down when you’re finished.

We call it P2 (Plugins 2 which replaced Plugins 1)
How does the deployment works?
Locally, the SDK will automatically install your plugin into the product when it starts up.
