Packaging your plugin
In order to install your new plugin on your production instance of Confluence, you'll need to package it up and install it there.
- Navigate to your plugin's root directory.
- Make sure that your POM.xml is depending to the version of Confluence on which you plan to deploy.
- Run the command mvn package
- That will create my-plugin-X.X.X.jar in the target directory.
- You can now install this plugin in Confluence.
* If your plugin has dependent jars, see this page.
