To create a Rider plugin and export it as a jar file, follow these steps:
- Open Jetbrains Rider and create a new Rider plugin project.
- In the project creation wizard, configure the plugin settings, such as the plugin name, author, and version.
- In the project explorer, right-click on the project and select "New > Module".
- Select "Rider Plugin" as the module type and follow the instructions to configure the plugin module.
- Implement your plugin functionality in the plugin module.
- When you are ready to export the plugin, right-click on the plugin module and select "Prepare Plugin Module for Deployment".
- In the "Prepare Plugin for Deployment" dialog, select the "Jar" option and follow the instructions to configure the jar file settings.
- Click "OK" to generate the jar file.
- The exported jar file can then be installed in Rider by going to "File > Manage Plugins" and clicking on the "Install plugin from disk" button.
Note: Before exporting the plugin as a jar file, make sure to test it thoroughly in Rider to ensure it works as intended.
