To install additional plugins into Eclipse, you want to use the "p2 director" application. It is embedded inside the Eclipse IDE itself so once the IDE is unzipped and Java is installed, it is possible to run the director.

The director app can install new things, update, and uninstall.

There is also a separately packaged smaller headless p2 director available for download. (This director is often used in headless/CI builds).

The main complications regarding Eclipse installations is if you install it in one of the "shared" modes.

Eclipse itself is straightfoward, since it's just a matter of
download/unzip/set env vars.I wrote my own manifest to do that.

In at least one case I tried, installing a plugin by manually placing
files into /plugins and /features wasn't enough to activate the plugin.
Wondering if it was because of the need to accept the license?

    I'm also interested in this. Anyone using puppet for setting up
    eclipse? (with or without plugins)
