Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse

The Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse provides first-class support for the Cloud Foundry PaaS: http://www.cloudfoundry.com/. It allows you to directly deploy applications from your workspace to a running Pivotal CF server instance, view and manage deployed applications and services, start and stop applications.

Installation (Release)

Java 7 is now a minimum execution environment requirement to install and run Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse. Please make sure your Eclipse or STS is using a Java 7 or higher JRE.

when using Eclipse

Go to the Eclipse Marketplace and search for "Cloud Foundry". You will find the release of the Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse and can install that into your existing Eclipse installation. An Eclipse JEE package is recommended.

when using STS

When using the Spring Tool Suite, please make sure to upgrade to the latest STS release and then go to the Dashboard -> Extensions and select the Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse from there.

manually from the update site

You can always install the latest release of the Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse from here:

http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/cloudfoundry

(put this URL into the "Install New Software" dialog of your Eclipse)

Attention:

Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse 1.5.0 and higher, as well as the nightly update site and master development branch, now only support v2 Pivotal CF organizations and spaces.

V1 support for api.cloudfoundry.com as well as v1 micro and local clouds, is no longer available.

The latest Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse can be update from within STS/Eclipse starting from version 1.0.0. Updates from prior versions are not supported, and any version of Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse earlier than 1.0.0 (e.g. M4 and M5 closed-source versions) must be uninstalled first before newer versions of the plug-in can be installed.

Once you have the Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse installed from the update sites mentioned here, you will get updates automatically.

Installation (latest from the CI build)

You can always install the latest bits and pieces of the project from the update site that is automatically produced by the continuous integration build. This always reflects the latest development, so you might observe some interesting behavior here and there, and it is not guaranteed to be stable.

(put this URL into the "Install New Software" dialog of your Eclipse)

Getting started

The basic steps for using the Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse are described here:

http://docs.cloudfoundry.com/docs/using/managing-apps/ide/sts.html

Just notice that this description is targeted at users of the SpringSource Tool Suite, but once you have the Eclipse integration for Cloud Foundry installed, you can use it in the same way as described.

Getting started with Cloud Foundry, including registering a new account, can be done through:

http://docs.cloudfoundry.com/

Questions and bug reports:

If you have a question that Google can't answer, the best way is to go to the Cloud Foundry community forums:

General Cloud Foundry including Cloud Foundry Eclipse

or

Cloud Foundry Eclipse only

There you can also ask questions and search for other people with related or similar problems (and solutions). New versions of the Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse are announced there as well.

Bugs and issues can be raised here in GitHub:

Additional support can be found at the Cloud Foundry support site.

Working with the code

If you want to work on the project itself, the best way is to install the Cloud Foundry integration for Eclipse into your Eclipse target platform and start from there, using the standard Eclipse way of plugin development using PDE.

You can clone the Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse git repository and import the projects into your Eclipse workspace and start using them.

Building the project

The Cloud Foundry Integration for Eclipse uses Maven Tycho to do continuous integration builds and to produce p2 repos and update sites. To build the tooling yourself, you can execute:

mvn -Pe36 package
