3. git clone https://gerrit.googlesource.com/plugins/delete-project
4. buck build delete-project:delete-project

Answer 3

I struggled with the answers above, maybe due to having a new version of Gerrit (2.11.2). The steps in this document all worked for me, with one addition - you need to add the --recursive flag when you clone the Gerrit source code so that it includes the source for the standard plugins:

git clone --recursive https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit

Also, make sure to check out the correct Git branch for your Gerrit version,e.g.

git fetch origin stable-2.11:stable-2.11
git checkout stable-2.11

I managed to install delete-project plugin after following this thread:

P.S. I build the jar following the below steps:

1. git clone --recursive https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit
2. cd gerrit
3. git clone --recursive https://gerrit.googlesource.com/plugins/delete-project
4. buck build delete-project:delete-project

You should then find the delete-project.jar in buck-out/gen/delete-project/delete-project.jar
