There are multiple ways in which you can contribute back to this connector. The most obvious one is by writing code, but you can also promote the project, improve documentation, contribute design and others.

Preparing Eclipse

Download a recent version of Eclipse from the Eclipse downloads page. The prequisites are:

  • EGit support
  • Maven support
  • Plugin development support

Since none of the standard downloads contains all three features, download the Eclipse for Java developers edition.

Until Eclipse is downloaded, you can fork the connector .

Importing the project

After starting Eclipse, go to the Git Repositories view and click on Clone a Git repository. In the dialog box that appears, click your fork's clone URI in the URI text field. Click next, next and then finish.

The projects are set up as Maven projects, so select File → Import → Existing Maven projects. Select the directory where you have checked out the project. Leave all the projects checked for import and select next.
