From the instructions https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-plugins/tree/main/plugins/protobuf i need to build the plugin and install with Gradle but it will be possible to use this plugin on a java service that uses maven as build tool? btw, the consumer service is Java 8

I don't think java 8 is supported for plugins but could be wrong.

Maven is definitely supported, but the version that provides plugin support requires JDK 11+

Bad news 😞 Nevertheless, do you have some suggestion how to implement contract testing on protobuf messages? There is another way for java 8 services?
Any example message pact project of a consumer and provider for jvm that i can use?

The Pactflow docs also has some message examples
