JDS Installation Guide

Plugin installation

  1. Copy content of the zip file into root folder of your installation of the JIRA web application so WEB-INF and secure folders contained within the zip will update content of same folders in your JIRA installation.
    Backup existing sharing configuration
    If you are upgrading from older version and you want to keep your current sharing settings, do not override your WEB-INF/classes/dashboardSharing.properties file (keep your own configuration).
    Version 1.0 to 1.1 upgrade
    Version 1.1 is using different format of configuration then version 1.0, but also old format is supported and is transfered to new format automatically during the startup of JIRA. After upgrade from 1.0 version to 1.1 also do not forget to remove WEB-INF/lib/jira-dashboard-sharing-1.0.jar file.
  2. Check if there is already existing file WEB-INF/classes/componentImplementations.properties
    1. If the file doesn't exist just rename WEB-INF/classes/componentImplementations.properties.jds to WEB-INF/classes/componentImplementations.properties (so remove .jds extension)
    2. If the file exist just open WEB-INF/classes/componentImplementations.properties.jds file, copy it's content and insert it to the end of existing WEB-INF/classes/componentImplementations.properties file
  3. Insert following property to the end of WEB-INF/classes/jira-application.properties file:

    jira.extension.container.provider=com.dailydev.jira.containerprovider.ConfigurableContainerProvider

  4. Restart Jira
  5. Login as administrator and check if the plugin is installed properly on Administration/Plugins page

  6. Enjoy Dashboard Sharing ;-)
