Jira custom Applink not showing up

[Marius Riehl]

Hi,

i'm trying to write a jira plugin that uses applinks to link jira to a non-atlassian application. 

I configured a plugin and and in atlassian-plugin.xml the following:

<applinks-application-type name="intergator" key="intergator"
        class="de.ifbus.intergator.plugins.jds.plugin.IntergatorApplicationType">
    <manifest-producer class="de.ifbus.intergator.plugins.jds.plugin.IntergatorManifestProducer"/>
</applinks-application-type>

In "Manage Apps" there is a module called "intergator" visible. But in the Applinks the Application Type does not show up.

 

I've tried for 3 days now and nothing works :(

This repository helped me a lot:

All you need for the application type to show up is a class for the application type itself and a class for the manifest producer. In the manifest producer class you can ignore the AuthenticationProviders initially. Just return null for these.
In the atlassian-plugin.xml you need to add the applinks-application-type. But you already have that.

Also make sure to set the maven home directory to the one that comes with the Atlassian SDK.

Another tip for working with the Atlassian SDK is to not restart Jira every time you want to build your plugin. Just use a second command line and run atlas-mvn package. This saved me a ton of time.
