Dependencies between 2 plugins

Jira Development Jira Server

Hi Guys,

I have 2 plugins dependent from each others; let’s say “Plugin A” is dependent from “Plugin B”.
Sometimes, especially during heavy consumption of the environment by users, uploading “Plugin B” is taking time (around 15min ) which is causing problems on “Plugin A” (we need to disable/enable it, so, it can work).
Is that normal? Do you see there is a way to fix that?

Thank you,
ROsy

Hi @rosy.salame,

May I know what kind of dependencies these plugins have with each other? And why it takes time?

Cheers,

Hi @acalantog,
In Plugin A, I added the following in its pom.xml:

	<dependency>
			<groupId>com.mycompany.plugin</groupId>
			<artifactId>pluginB</artifactId>
			<version>1.20</version>
			<scope>provided</scope>
		</dependency>

In Plugin B, I used this in its pom.xml (to export its package so, it can be available in Plugin A):

<plugin>
				<groupId>com.atlassian.maven.plugins</groupId>
				<artifactId>maven-amps-plugin</artifactId>
				<version>${amps.version}</version>
				<extensions>true</extensions>
				<configuration>
					<instructions>
						<Export-Package>
							com.mycompany.ao
					</Export-Package>
					</instructions>
				</configuration>
			</plugin>

I saw that we can import packages as optional (*;resolution:=optional), but, I’m not aware how we can do it.
What do you advice?
(for the take, it took a bit longer sometimes if we have load from uses; no errors in logs)

Thank you,
Rosy
