PluginInstallation
For a detailed guide on how to install plugins, see here.
In summary, use the plugin
command that ships with the IdP to install the plugin from either a local file pre-downloaded, from a URL or by pluginId 4.2
Installation
C:>\opt\shibboleth-idp\bin\plugin.bat -I net.shibboleth.idp.plugin.oidc.whatever
or
$ /opt/shibboleth-idp/bin/plugin.sh -i http://shibboleth.net/downloads/identity-provider/plugins/pluginName/version/URL
or
$ /opt/shibboleth-idp/bin/plugin.sh -i <plugin.tar.gz>
If installing from a local file, you need to ensure the GPG detached signature (e.g. the .asc file) is placed alongside the main plugin archive on disk.
Listing Installed Plugins
