How to "install" addon when running from Eclipse

Development IDE & Build
,

I am setting up my OH2 Eclipse dev environment per http://docs.openhab.org/developers/development/ide.html
So far, so good and I’m able to start OH2 from eclipse using openHAB_Runtime

I then cloned the zwave binding from https://github.com/openhab/org.openhab.binding.zwave and imported it into eclipse like the other addons

The question is, how do “install” the addon to use the eclipse source version as opposed to a static jar?

Thanks!

Not completly sure about the zwave bindign as it is in another repo but the usual way is to edit the Run configuration - select plugin and then tick the ones you want.

Details are also on this page but it’s just a single line that is easy to miss: http://docs.openhab.org/developers/development/bindings.html

Thanks @neil_renaud, I totally missed the Run configuration. I cloned the zwave repo and imported it into the addons, then I checked it in the run configuration and I can see it loading.

My next issue is that I don’t see habmin when I run from eclipse like I do when running from the oh2.zip file. I assume it’s something similar but, from my analysis of openhab-2.0.0.zip, it doesn’t appear to be an addon.

@chris can you speak to how I would get habmin2 to appear when running from eclipse? I have the zwave addon installed successfully but I don’t see habmin as a UI option:

The easiest way is to do the same thing - import the repo into the workspace, then enable it in the run configuration dialog. Alternately, I think you can also import the JAR but I’ve not done this myself for a long time so I don’t recall exactly what options to use.

Reviving an old thread as I am setting up my development environment on a new laptop and am still having some trouble getting habmin working from eclipse

I selected org.openhab.ui.habmin in the run → plugin dialog and I see it as an option when I connect to localhost (good):

But when I click it, I get a 404 error

Problem accessing /habmin/index.html. Reason ProxyServlet: /habmin/index.html

The other UI components are working so I’m a bit stumped
