Submit plugin to the Mattermost Plugin Marketplace

[elyscape]

Summary

It would be nice if Remind Bot were available in the Mattermost Plugin Marketplace.

Describe alternatives you've considered

This isn't really applicable. I guess the alternative is that it remains available here only.

Additional context

The Mattermost Plugin Marketplace provides the ability to install and update plugins from within the app directly, without needing to download the plugins locally. The steps for submitting a plugin to the marketplace are available in the documentation. The main thing that would need to change before Remind Bot can be published there is the policy requires submitted plugins to be on version 1.0.0 or greater, so a new release would need to be made.

Great idea. I would to make this happen.

[elyscape]

On further review, there are currently several plugins in the marketplace with version below 1.0.0, just marked as beta, so it may be possible to submit Remind Bot even before hitting version 1.0.0.

Hello, is there an update to getting the plugin on the Marketplace? We're excited to get it installed :)

[pugetc]

hello, we have the same requirement as @raphmim to have the plugin available on the Marketplace.
Any news?

[icsu]

@scottleedavis - I have the same use case requirement. What happened with your inquiry? Thanks in advance.

[scottleedavis]

@raphmim @pugetc @icsu I am available to do work with this plugin.

@hanzei @aaronrothschild @esethna is this still desired as a plugin? I believe I had heard it was going to be part of the core product.

[scottleedavis]

i am holding movement of this plugin into the marketplace or closure of this issue, until response from the mattermost team. @hanzei @aaronrothschild @esethna @jwilander

[scottleedavis]

I am available, again, to work on this plugin if there is a need.

[scottleedavis]

via @jwilander, I have heard that

1. the Mattermost team is building reminders baked into the product, generated on their own requirements, lead by a PM with QA and paid support. ( i am not going to compete with that)
2. the Mattermost security team is backlogged with plugin reviews so turn around time on this plugin into the Marketplace is going to be slow at best.

I am currently leaning towards letting the Mattermost team handle this feature as they see fit @hanzei .

[scottleedavis]

@hanzei I am going to again, support this plugin... changing my mind as I have often done in the past. Please let me know if you cannot review an incoming PR to improve the go report card https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/scottleedavis/mattermost-plugin-remind

@elyscape , I'll do my best to get this submitted into the mattermost marketplace
