= Plugins
The Gerrit server functionality can be extended by installing plugins.
[[installation]]
== Plugin Installation
Plugin installation is as easy as dropping the plugin jar into the
`$site_path/plugins/` folder. It may take
link:config-gerrit.html#plugins.checkFrequency[a few minutes] until
the server picks up new and updated plugins.
Plugins can also be installed via
link:rest-api-plugins.html#install-plugin[REST] and
link:cmd-plugin-install.html[SSH].
[[development]]
== Plugin Development
How to develop plugins is described in the link:dev-plugins.html[
Plugin Development Guide].
If you want to share your plugin under the link:licenses.html#Apache2_0[
Apache License 2.0] you can host your plugin development on the
link:https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com[gerrit-review] Gerrit
Server. You can request the creation of a new Project by email
to the link:https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/repo-discuss[Gerrit
mailing list]. You would be assigned as project owner of the new plugin
project so that you can submit changes on your own. It is the
responsibility of the project owner to maintain the plugin, e.g. to
make sure that it works with new Gerrit versions and to create stable
branches for old releases.
[[core-plugins]]
== Core Plugins
Core plugins are packaged within the Gerrit war file and can easily be
installed during the link:pgm-init.html[Gerrit initialization].
The core plugins are developed and maintained by the Gerrit maintainers
and the Gerrit community.
[[commit-message-length-validator]]
=== commit-message-length-validator

message body, and reports warnings or errors to the git client if the

[[singleusergroup]]
=== singleusergroup

[[other-plugins]]
== Other Plugins
Besides core plugins there are many other Gerrit plugins available.
These plugins are developed and maintained by different parties.
The Gerrit Project doesn't guarantee proper functionality of any of
these plugins.
The Gerrit Project doesn't provide binaries for these plugins, but
there are some public services, like the

offer the download of ready plugin jars.

to work in the source system while the import to the target system is
done. By resuming the import the project in the target system can be
updated with the missing delta.
The importer plugin can also be used to copy a project within one Gerrit
server, and in combination with the link:#delete-project[delete-project]
plugin it can be used to rename a project.
