Heciruam Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I was wondering how can I install plugins manualy? So I read on the wiki for the older v5 version that you could drop the .plg files into the plugions folder. Does that still work? Also were would I get that file from, if I can find the plugin on community applications? I'm having trouble finding it from the raw.github.andsoon adress. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Some plugin authors publish the URLs for the plugin. I for one do not. But, once you have community applications (which does have the URL published), you don't ever need the URL anyways. Just install it via it. Quote Link to comment
Heciruam Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 Well I usually use the community application, but my unraid machine is apparently to slow for the rclone plugin. Now I need to wait for the creater/maintainer to increase the timeout before the download is dropped. I thought I could go around it by using the .plg file, but that one is also pointing at (/pulling from) the github repository. So I guess I'm looking at a way to install plugins without a network connection. How would one achieve that? Thank you. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 *Generally* (But this varies according to the plugin) You would save the .plg in /config/plugins You would save whatever file(s) the plugin has to download into /config/plugins/nameOfPlugin Probably best to ask the author himself how you would go about doing this.
