📢 FPP's plugin guidelines and submission process have been updated - see the Plugin Guidelines for what's expected of a listed plugin. Adding another plugin? Start at Submit a plugin.
🔄 As part of this new process, in the lead up to each new version release we will create a GitHub issue like this one and ask that you review compatibility of your plugin with the new version and outline any new best practices for plugins. Please review this information and update your plugin accordingly.
🧪 Get your plugin ready for FPP 10
FPP 10.0 beta3 has been released - FPP 10 full release is due shortly. Please test and update your plugin against beta3, available at https://github.com/FalconChristmas/fpp/releases/tag/10.0-beta3.
✅ Compatibility
A versions[] entry already declares FPP 10 support.
Areas of concern / optimisation
- ⚠️ Best practice - no-restart-flag
- registers command type(s) via commands/descriptions.json but doesn't request an fppd restart at every lifecycle point that needs one - install: fpp_install.sh present, no restart/reboot flag; uninstall: fpp_uninstall.sh present, no restart/reboot flag.
- This plugin's code itself looks fine for FPP 10 - structurally safe to hot-load/unload without a restart there. The flag is still needed because pluginInfo.json's versions[] serves this exact branch/build to FPP majors before 10 too, which have no plugin load/unload feature at all - those installs still need a full fppd restart to pick up install/uninstall.
- Add
source ${FPPDIR}/scripts/common; setSetting restartFlag 1 to each script listed above (creating fpp_install.sh/fpp_uninstall.sh if missing - only fpp_upgrade.sh is optional, and only needs it if you already have one); only drop it once you split off a separate FPP 10+-only branch/sha in versions[]
We know our automated checks don't always get it 100% right. Please fix whatever above does apply first - then, for anything left that doesn't apply or you think deserves an exception, comment /submit with an explanation and a maintainer will take a look.
Once you have updated your plugin, please comment /recheck on this issue and we will automatically scan your plugin and comment the new results here.
