Re: [mpc-dev] Marketplace REST API status.
|
There are currenlty bundled with the EPP packages, here are the corresponding extensions:
From org.eclipse.epp.mpc.ui
<extension
point="org.eclipse.epp.mpc.ui.catalog">
<catalog
description="Eclipse Marketplace (MP) is a place to find and keep track of Eclipse-based solutions."
icon="icons/marketplace32.png"
label="Eclipse Marketplace"
url="" href="http://marketplace.eclipse.org">http://marketplace.eclipse.org"
</catalog>
</extension>
From org.eclipse.epp.package.common
<extension
point="org.eclipse.epp.mpc.ui.catalog">
<catalog
description="The fast and reliable source for Eclipse plugins and solutions. Experience the difference."
icon="icons/yoxos32.png"
label="Yoxos Marketplace - by EclipseSource"
url="" href="http://market.eclipsesource.com/yoxos">http://market.eclipsesource.com/yoxos">
</catalog>
</extension>
Regarding your own catalog: I'd suggest to list it. In the scenario that someone else wants to provide the marketplace listings (eg. MPC integrators), they may want to omit the Eclipse marketplace. In addition, this would allow you to change the branding on the fly without touching the EPP packages. See
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=313581 for some discussions around this topic.

Where can I find the current marketplace listings for the other
catalogs so i can populate the site with those values.
Another question I had was whether or not I should even be listing
_our_ MPC catalog on the server since it is the defacto choice, it
should always be online and the default catalog.

Hi Nathan,
from an initial POV, this API looks pretty good.
I'm currently working on the client to consume the API.
Open items:
* you should fill the current marketplace listing with the
correct information as, starting with next week, these
information will be used to display the catalogs in the UI
* we need to determinate a strategy which listings should be
used in case we have both informations available (local vs.
remote). Ian, would you please comment on task 328605: MPC
should retrieve list of catalogs from the server[1] how to
proceed with this? Thanks!
Regards,
Ben
