I am working on creating a new plugin, and I am trying to figure out where the description of the plugin is pulled from.  My repo can be found here: https://github.com/dorgan/unraid-reports/  please let me know what I am doing wrong...

You need to create the file "README.md" and place this in the plugin folder (e.g. /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/myplugin)

awesome thanks.  Is there a getting started guide for developing unRaid plugins?  So far what I've done is use other plugins as a guide.  But it would be awesome to have a single source of info to look at

See

So my plugin seems to install and I see /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/unraid-reports/ and /boot/config/plugins/unraid-reports getting created.  However, I do not see /boot/config/plugins/unraid-reports.plg getting copied into place.  And when I refresh the plugin list, my plugin is not being shown.

You need to manually install your plugin using the GUI.

See Plugins -> Install Plugin

Copy the URL of your plugin into the input box and press 'install'.

That’s exactly what I am doing.

Does it say the installation of the plugin is successful or some error?

Show a screenshot of the installation.
