Install Json Editor Plugin?

I feel stupid asking this question, but how do I install the Json Editor Plugin in my Eclipse Helios? I looked through the forum in sourceforge, but I can not install it either through .zip or by adding a website. And will I need to change the runtime to Java 1.6?

Here is what I did to get the Json Editor Plugin to appear in the Setup dialog box.

After doing a bit of work with Google, I found this page that describes the steps to install JsonEditorPlugin on 3.4.

After you have completed the first 6 steps, make sure that the elements of the Group by category are unchecked . After that, you can select the Json Editor Plugin to install from the local Zip archive that you downloaded from the network.

Edit: as a side note, you should not have the unzipped contents of the zip archive in the folder / folder, otherwise it will look as if the plug-in is already installed.

Just dropping the zip contents into the dropins folder also worked.

Note. You should right-click your .json file and select "Open with" โ†’ "Json Editor"

You can install plugins simply by unzipping them to the dropins folder. It does not matter if the zip file contains the parent folders "plugins" and / or "eclipse".

I would recommend Java 1.6 as it provides better performance, and the plugin may require Java 1.6. On your desktop shortcut, you use the following execution arguments:

eclipse -vm <path to jre 1.6 installation folder>\bin\javaw

  • Download jsonedit-repository-0.9.7.zip (or something else) and put it in the folder you need.
  • In Eclipse Help โ†’ Installing New Software
  • Add โ†’ Archive and select the zip file.
  • Name it and click OK.
  • Click "Next" and complete the installation wizard.

Then, after opening the json file, you may need to right-click on the file -> open with -> JSON Editor
