Changes made

Reused from FrameWeb-VP-Plugin Fork

• Verify the default paths to app and plugin and ask to confirm the typed path.
• Download the ontouml-vp-Repository and clean it after installation of plugin
• Verify JDK and Maven installation, if uninstalled the script is able to install this requirements in UNIX OS.
• In Windows, this script can open the Tutorial of Maven and JDK Installation.
• Can install shell requirements like HomeBrew
• Can modify pom.xml to App dir and Plugin dir given directories or default path.
• Easy-to-maintain with a lot of functions with good practices.

My adaptations for OntoUML

• Updated the script to support OntoUML automatic installation.
• The code was refactored improving encapsulation from the get_VP_App_Path and get_VP_Plugin_Path functions.
• I put the curl with bash script under User Instructions, but you can adapt it like @vitorsouza did in FrameWeb
• Was commented install_maven because in OntoUML, maven is optional. So, we're installing with Maven Wrapper

Testing

Open Git Bash or Terminal, and type:

bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/propilideno/ontouml-vp-plugin/master/install.sh)

Final Thoughts

I refrained from including my name in the README file since I am not a member of the team. However, I would be honored if you would consider crediting me for my contributions.

Hey @propilideno! I was taking a look at your code, and had some problems while installing it with Windows. I mainly use Unix systems, however, I need to make sure the experience is good even on Windows machines.

The problem is when changing the path at functions read_App_Path() and read_Plugin_Path(). When answering with "n", it gives an error and does not allow the user to type a new path. I'm not sure what the reason is, but using another auxiliar variable seemed to fix it on what I tested.

Can you please fix it? If you can't, I will change it and approve your PR
