Red5 IDE Eclipse Plugin

****** UPDATED: PLEASE SEE LATEST POST******

Community:

I’ve built a Red5 IDE eclipse plugin. The plugin currently supports in no particular order:

  • Creates new Red5 Serverside applications including all the application structure
  • Creates initial Application for connecting to
  • Creates a Red5 Server Runtime
  • Server can be started and stopped from within eclipse
  • Projects are automatically deployed to the runtime from within Eclipse
  • Deployment is confirmed from an internal browser
  • Red5 libraries are added to the classpath
  • Documentation includes:
    Red5 Plugin Development Guide
    Red5 Book … that I’ve been working on during my free time.. which I don’t have much :)

Features I’d like to add include:

  • The wizard should create the clientside application structure as well for connecting
  • Create Red5 Services by right clicking on the project
  • The ability to target different versions of Red5
  • I haven’t tested debugging, for all I know it works, but thats a must
  • Add Jedai Serverside Support
  • Add Paperworld3d Serversde Support
  • ….

So, I’m finding it pretty sweet to not have to manually setup projects and create build scripts left and right to just create and test Red5 apps.

Oh, any feedback would be great… what features would you like to see? ;)
