Description
Extension extending Extension Module with possibility to search and install extensions from Bintray repositories.
Bintray is a tool for exposing built artifacts. It aggregates functionalities of different repositories, e.g.: maven, npm, debian. It's possible to connect them separately in native way or together via unified Rest API - that provides e.g. searching functionality.
Extension Repository Connector - Bintray - enables resolving and searching of artifacts from particular repo running on Bintray.
Currently the extension allows to connect only maven repository (running on bintray). In the nearest future integration with npm repository is planned to be added.
