Contribute a new plugin to jmeter-plugins

[Nachiket Kate]

Hi,

We (Team from GS Lab) have developed a JMeter plugin for Apache Kafka load testing which has lot a features other than sending just simple text message.
This plugin can be used as an java sampler and a config element. It is open sources under Apache license. Feature and usage details are available at Pepperbox. We would like to contribute this plugin to jmeter-plugins repo as well so that it will be helpful to mode wider audience.
Please let us know your thoughts and guidelines to contribute.

Thanks,
Nachiket Kate.

Hi,

The proper way of contributing the plugin to the community is to keep it under your control and just register it into plugins repository. For that, you would need to prepare public repo with source code of your plugin, some docs on how to use it, place to download binary releases (Maven or Github works well).

Then, you need to contribute PR with your plugin descriptor JSON. Like it was done for this plugin: https://github.com/undera/jmeter-plugins/pull/147/files

Also note that there's existing Kafka plugin, so you should use the name that differentiates you and also describe the benefits of using your version, to users in docs.

Hi,

Working on JMeter test plans with Kafka support. One solution is to try these pepper-box samples.

What's the status about productifying this according to above?

Main reason for question is to know that it's easy to get support in case of issues and questions.

Thanks & Regards

Richard

Hi,

We have not thought of productifying pepper-box yet and your ideas are welcome if any. We were planning to submit it as JMeter plugin but couldn't finish it because of some reasons but will do that soon.

Pepper-Box team is active on github and we will help you in case of any queries and issues.

Thanks,

Nachiket Kate.

Hi Richard,

As of now preferred way to contact in case of support/questions is github issues/stack overflow. Team is active in both places. :)

Thanks,

Did anyone from GS Lab ever register PepperBox into the JMeter plugins repository? 
If not, any reason why not?
