Cannot install on SonarQube 9 Commercial Versions

[robertdeboer]

Describe the bug
Missing installation instructions for SonarQube 9.x commercial versions.

Starting in SonarQube 9.x non community editions (developer, enterprise, data center), plugins cannot be installed via the Marketplace admin area of the SonarQube instance - installation must be done manually. Documentation here. According to the docs, this is as simple as downloading and placing a jar file on the SonarQube server. However, I do not see a jar file in the source code downloads nor any documentation mentioning building one.

This plugin is great in that using generated clover coverage files are much easier than junit as junit likes to use absolute file paths, which make using it in any sort of CI process where the testing is done in one place and scanning in another a nightmare.

To Reproduce

1. Go to SonarQube 9.x commercial instance - developer, enterprise, data center
2. Click on Administration -> Marketplace
3. Scroll down to Clover plugin
4. See the absence of the install button
5. Follow link to documentation on installing the plugin - referenced above.

Expected behavior
Either:

1. A jar file available for download and installation
2. A section in the documentation referencing to building one or other such installation steps.

Any suggestions on this? I would be more than a happy to build this myself if there was some instructions provide in the documentation on how to do so.

Hi @robertdeboer sorry for the delay, seems like I missed a lot of notifications,
The jar is available on maven central, but as you pointed out, it could be a good idea to include it as assets of new releases. I'll try to include this in the future one
