After you developed a plugin the next step is to deploy it in your application. For this task, one option is to create a zip file with a structure described in section [How to use](https://github.com/decebals/pf4j/blob/master/README.md#how-to-use) from the beginning of the document.

If you use `apache ant` than your buil.xml file must looks like [this](https://github.com/gitblit/gitblit-powertools-plugin/blob/master/build.xml). In this case please look at the "build" target.
