From VDR Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The installation instruction of all plugins is basically the same. For specialties see the particual plugins description. But the last instance is always the README file of the plugin.

hi nice site thx man

For developers

Sinngemäß entsprechend ../VDR/PLUGINS.html: An extract of ../VDR/PLUGINS.html

Erstellen eines Plugin-Pakets

If you want to make your plugin available to other VDR users, you'll need to
make a package that can be easily distributed.
The 'Makefile' that has been created by the call to newplugin
provides the target 'dist', which does this for you.

Simply change into your source directory and execute 'make dist':


 cd VDR/PLUGINS/src/hello
 make dist

After this you should find a file named like

 vdr-hello-0.0.1.tgz


in your source directory, where 'hello' will be replaced with your actual
plugin's name, and '0.0.1' will be your plugin's current version number.
