Add JMeter plugin programmatically - non gui mode

I am trying to use jmeter-plugins. Does it have to be placed only under /lib/ext folder? Is there any way for me to refer to the plugin jar using some properties? (like user.classpath property to refer to my custom lib)

  1. Download cmdrunner in lib folder

    cd apache-jmeter-5.4/lib
curl -O https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/kg/apc/cmdrunner/2.2.1/cmdrunner-2.2.1.jar

    download-cmd

  2. Download jmeter plugin Manager in lib/ext folder

    cd ext/
curl -O https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/kg/apc/jmeter-plugins-manager/1.6/jmeter-plugins-manager-1.6.jar

  3. Install plugins

    cd ..
java  -jar cmdrunner-2.2.1.jar --tool org.jmeterplugins.repository.PluginManagerCMD install jpgc-webdriver

After placing the plugin manager jar in the /lib/ext/ you need to do the following to install a particular plugin.

Download the latest cmdrunner from this URL by changing the version.

wget http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=kg/apc/cmdrunner/2.2/cmdrunner-2.2.jar

Copy the cmdrunner to jmeter/lib/ directory

mv cmdrunner-2.2.jar apache-jmeter-5.1.1/lib/

Execute the following command to generate script file PluginsManagerCMD

java -cp apache-jmeter-5.1.1/lib/ext/jmeter-plugins-manager-1.3.jar org.jmeterplugins.repository.PluginManagerCMDInstaller

After the script is generated, you can use it to install a particular plugin

apache-jmeter-5.1.1/bin/PluginsManagerCMD.sh status
apache-jmeter-5.1.1/bin/PluginsManagerCMD.sh available
apache-jmeter-5.1.1/bin/PluginsManagerCMD.sh install jpgc-tst=2.5

If you don't want to put JMeter plugin jars in the lib/ext directory, then define the property search_paths in jmeter.properties.
