Where did the service-connector plugin go?

问题:

Latest since this checkin the service-connector cf plugin seems to be gone for SwisscomDev.

Official Link to the plugin simply returns a 404.

Isn't it supported anymore? What's the alternative? And did I miss communication about it?

Yes. Our proprietary CF CLI client plugin is phased out. The alternative is cf ssh (from upstream). See Accessing Services with SSH on docs.developer.swisscom.com.

On Migrate from legacy MariaDB to MariaDB Ent you have a step by step howto for cf ssh. Please adapt that for your service and port.

cf ssh proy-app -L 13000:<old-db-host>:<old-db-port>

Here on #swisscomdev there is also a posting Alternative to Swisscom CF plugin named Service Connector with MongoDB Ops Manager example.

We have an edge case for an enterprise customer that may still need a cf sc feature (not available in cf ssh). Investigation ongoing.

And did I miss communication about it?

Sorry we failed in communication. Sorry that you notice this change in our GitHub repo first. We wished to update docs first, then communicate the EOL. We somehow forgot it in yesterdays newsletter.
