Installation
At this point the plugin is not upgrading using Confluence Plugin Repository so you'll need to install it by uploading it manually to Confluence:
In the 'Administration' section of Confluence, click the Plugins link.
Click on the 'Upload' tab.
Use the 'Browse' button to find the plugin-checkout-VERSION.jar (you did download it, right?)
Select the jar file and click 'Open'.
The plugin will be uploaded from your machine to Confluence, and will be automatically installed.
*If anyone would like to modify it so that it is available via the Repository, have at it!
Description/Features
- Adds basic check-out/check-in functionality to Confluence attachments.
- Admin functionality is implemented to Undo Check-out for all the checked-out files for given space. This is permission based functionality where Confluence admin holds default permission to Undo Check-out and Space admin can provide undo checkout permissions for Individual and/or group of users. This functionality is available under Advanced tab. Screenshots is available here
- Automatic Undo Check-out functionality is implemented.
Aim of this functionality to overcome a problem which occur when some one checked-out a file and forget to check-in/ Undo checkout.
This problem may lead to restrict check-in for specific user and violate the concept of Knowledge management.
Automatic Undo Check-out functionality will cancel the checkout.
This cancellation is done on the basis of the lapsed time period set by the space admin.
Plug-in will send reminder mail to user who have checked-out the file and not checked-in in the scheduled time period set by administrator.
Every after reminder mail user have not check-in/ Undo check-out , then plug-in will take care to Undo Check-out on schedule time period set by administrator followed by a notification mail to user saying "Checkout of files listed below has been cancelled by Admin. This cancellation is done on the basis of the lapsed time period set by the administrator".This functionality is available under Space Admin tab. Screenshots is available herePlugin Versions

Support
This plugin was written to meet the needs of a particular company and then released to the Confluence Developer Community as open source for further development/enhancement. We'll try to address issues that affect our installation as quickly as possible. We'll also make changes to the plug-in as our environment changes. (For example, right now we're on v2.5.4 with no planned upgrade in sight. Any issues relating to upgrading will be low on our list until we're ready to upgrade.)
We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause but we don't have the resources to maintain this for every possible installation, yet we saw enough community demand for it to release it open source. We encourage everyone to continue to use the issue tracker that's been set up by Atlassian and for any developer that would like to enhance/upgrade it, have at it. (Actually, what we'd really like to see is Atlassian incorporate it as standard!) Thank you for understanding.

When I check in a document, the new file is uploaded fine as harbour.jpg?version=2. However, after the upload, links to harbour.jpg actually shows the content from version 1.
This means that anyone linking to harbour.jpg will not see my checked-in update. Also, the document is still actually listed as checked out and I can't get it to check back in. I'm using Confluence 2.5.4

Ideally we should be able to specify/configure each space or possible page to use either the attachment plugin or the check-in/check-out plugin as appropriate for the usage of that space or page. Right now this seems to be an all or nothing.

We've got 140+ Spaces and 6700+ users in our Confluence instance, a good portion of which don't really need the check-out capability, and no one has complained that it's there. I think it's one of those "they'll use it if they need it, they'll ignore it if they don't" type of things.
If you'd like it to be considered for a future update, please add it to the issue log. Thank you.

I just realized the usage mode where this could get to be annoying for users. I see the attachment feature having to usage models.
1.In many spaces the attachments are files that are being received from a 3rd party (is documentations for 3rd party applications for example) and then simply being posted in the space.
2. In other spaces/pages attachments are truly files that are going through an editing processes thus need to be checked out.
In the case of the first model i agree it not to bad to click check out, and then check the newly received file right back in. But looking at the issues for the plug-in I noticed that an enhancement was made to automatically download the file when it is marked for check out. This will definetly get annoying. (CHKOUT-3).
Would it be possilble that when the file in not in the Checked Out state for the option to be "Checkout | Upload | Edit | Remove" thus giving the user the option to upload a new file without checking out and being forced to download the file.

file_ver_1.doc which gets checked in.
The file then revised and a copy is received as
file_ver_2.doc
This presents several problems.
1. You cannot check-in the second file unless is match file name of the file already checked in.
2. If you change the name of the file to file_ver_1.doc so you can check it in, with the assumption that you can then rename it within confluence, that ends up changing the file name of both versions.
How do folks deal with the file when it name changes with version and you want to be able to track it as a sequence of revision in the attachment rather then separate attachments?
Thanks.

Andrei - if you're installing from the Repository, make sure you're disabling the original Attachments Macro that comes with Confluence. That's usually what the issue is.

Than after a couple of restarts and enabling disabeling I got to the point when Attachements pluging was disabled and Attachements Checkout plugin was enabled - no errors. But I still don't see the Check Out capability, only Edit and Remove for individual attachments
By the way now the Repository says that it is version 1.0.0 but when installing it is still loading 0.0.91 jar, and after install it says that 0.0.91 is installed.

So, I had modified a schema from http: to https: and now you can download a original jar who's size is 75kb.

I however want to make a little change on the attachment link -- that is, to explicitly affix the version of the attachment to the URL (a client company is complaining of inconsistent attachment versions being downloaded on their PCs).
Anyway, in our test Confluence, where this plugin is not installed, I just changed two VM files (viewattachments.vm and listattachmentsforspace.vm) and got what I wanted. Because in our Production the we are using this plugin, the Attachment Macro is therefore disabled. I would need to make changes to your source file (I think "attachmentsmacro.vm" and "versionedattachments.vm" are the two files that need to be changed because the update I made for the listattachmentsforspace.vm worked.). Here are the areas where I hope you could help me:
1. I am not sure which source files to download from this link: http://svn.atlassian.com/svn/public/contrib/confluence/checkout-plugin/, and wonder if you could respond to me here with the info, or better yet, a link to a ".rar" or ".zip" file that contains all the relevant source files that I can re-jar after making the update.
2. The Attachment Macro uses the viewattachments.vm for pages, rss and news/blogs. Other that the attachmentsmacro.vm and versionedattachments.vm files, are there other files that need to be updated?
Thanks,
Doods

Attachment checkout plug-in is developed on top of Attachment macro (Confluence macro) and due to major changes in core code base of Attachment macro in confluence 2.7.x and newer. It need complete rework on Attachment Checkout Plug-in.
Please refer xwork.xml for confluence versions 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8 to know more about the changes in core code base of Attachment macro.
Actually uninstalling plugin from the admin console should be able to remove the plugin from the database. But when the plugin is outdated, it will create a problem.
There is actually a bug report in APR-24 and a feature request in APR-86.
Please add your comments to the discussion, vote on it and add yourself as a watcher for future updates.
Honestly, it's hard to estimate when checkout compatibility will be resolve.

I am guessing that this means that the plugin has been broken by 2.9. Can someone look into this, create an issue if necessary and provide some estimated time for when it can be fixed? Very frustrating to finally have got it working in 2.7+ only to have it broken again by 2.9!

I've done some updating to this plugin to get it working with 2.10.3. It's also been tested against 2.8 and 2.9. The only problem I’ve noticed is that you will have to restart the Confluence service if you uninstall it. You can download it here. Hope it works OK for everyone.

We have noticed one error or maybe it is just something that needs to explained: When we download an excel spreadsheet (no checkout, just want an RO copy) and do another download, the plugin says the person has it locked. This is an intermittent issue but it does get annoying for new users who panic and say they never checked out the spreadsheet. Is there a setting I can adjust?

We're running Confluence 2.9.1 with latest version of the plugin.
It seems that Watches (email sent when the page changes) don't get triggered when documents are checked-in with the plugin.
This would be REALLY valuable functionality for my company as we are using confluence and this macro to provide a basic document management system for us.
Any feedback from anyone on this would be gratefully received.

We went to Confluence 3.0.0_1, do you plan to have this plugin work for this version ?
Thanks for the job anyway.
