Plugin handshake timeout for $myHttpURLforOrionPlugin

Question

I followed these steps from the guide found at http://planetorion.org/news/2012/01/writing-a-content-assist-plugin-for-orion/ and modified the Ruby plugin to handle keyword assist for some PHP keywords. I copied the git repo and have an almost identic repo at https://github.com/oscaralmgrenibm/orion.php.git

Now I've also installed and uploaded my files to a placeholder app running at http://oscarorionplugin.mybluemix.net/phpEditor.html. Using that link in my DevOps Services Eclipse Orion WebIDE, I get the following error:

Plugin handshake timeout for: http://oscarorionplugin.mybluemix.net/phpEditor.html

Anyone had similar issues and figured out what needs to be done?

Answer 1

Current Solution

1. Create a new public project on IBM DevOps Services, init git repo and put all files related to the plugin there.
2. Browse project and open up yourPlugin.html in web editor (Edit code)
3. Right-click file and choose View in Browser
4. Copy URL from browser
5. Paste in Install Plugin button URL

It seems to be related to HTTPS and I have no further details at this moment on how to do it in a simpler way.
