Because of bintray sundown - see https://jfrog.com/blog/into-the-sunset-bintray-jcenter-gocenter-and-cha… there was a need to change the update site.

The new location starting with version 1.7.0 is now https://de-jcup.github.io/update-site-eclipse-yaml-editor/update-site/

When you are using eclipse marketplace for installation the new update location will be automatically applied.

We liked this plugin. And i need to install this plugin offline and without opening eclipse. I tried to find a solution but i failed. Is there any way to install this plugin offline without opening the eclipse (for example with command line)?

For bash editor there exist entries for these topics

FAQ#how-can-i-install-bash-editor-offline

FAQ#how-can-i-install-bash-editor-automated

Normally you should only need to adapt https://bintray.com/de-jcup/basheditor parts to https://bintray.com/de-jcup/yamleditor and it should work then

If there are still problems, please create an issue at Yaml Editor issue tracker on github
