The plugin manager provides a simple web-based user interface for uploading new and updated map reduce plugins to the system, and for sharing them across the different communities.
If you want to use a map reduce plugin for many jobs, use the file uploader to upload the jar and then use this plugin Manager to schedule the job (remember to copy the shareid from the fileuploader)
Logging In
The plugin manager can be accessed from <ROOT_URL>/pluginManager.jsp (eg http://infinite.ikanow.com/pluginManager.jsp).
...
- In order to login with admin privileges (for admins only!), append "?sudo"or "?sudo=true" to the URL (eg http://infinite.ikanow.com/pluginManager.jsp?sudo).
If you are not logged-in with admin privileges you will only be able to edit your own files, though you will still be able to share files with any communities of which you are a member - this is different to both source management and widget uploading, where you must be a community moderator/owner.
This brings up username and password fields and a login button.
