[deprecated] rah_plugin_download
Rah_plugin_download project has been dropped and development ceased in favor of MassPlugCompiler project. Rah_plugin_download should be considered deprecated.
Please see MassPlugCompiler or Textpattern’s official plugin template instead. Both support Textpacks and all other niceties that aren’t supported or stored with plugins when installed to the database by Textpattern.

Yes, really useful Gocom. A good complement to ied_plugin_composer.
Nice one, thanks.

Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download
Gocom
thank you for another plugin!
Any chance on having an admin-side interface where you can list which plugins are accessible (or inaccessible) for download. Otherwise a site could be sucked dry of all it’s plugins (given a suitable colophon page and some manual editing of the download url), even if the author only intended to release just a single plugin using this mechanism.
I think this would be a useful feature.

Yeah, I’m planning to implement something like. Future features should be:
- Page where you can deside which plugins to allow for download
- This can be simply done with checkboxes
- Or by defining your author prefix to input field, which automatically allows all your prefixed plugin to be downloaded

Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download
A new, 0.2, version released. Added things that netcarver mentioned/wanted earlier :)
New in rah_plugin_download 0.2:
- Option to allow just some or all installed plugins to be downloaded by visitors, customizible by prefix or individual plugin name.
- New backend interface.
See topic’s first post for changelog and download links.

Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download
So do I understand this correctly…
This plugin is for plugin ‘authors’ so that they can just publish plugins directly from an install and tweak the plugin from time to time while allowing the ‘user’ to download the latest live version, without the ‘author’ having to do a thing?
Cool! very useful.
Now if we could only link that to a live plugin repo…

Haha :D That was ‘cause Textile turned ?index.php?event=rah_plugin_download to point to my dev-install, ‘cause there were index.php at the start :D Stupid Textile + TXP compination, doh :D
Fixed by removing the famous index.php…

Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download
great… So the other half of the equation is a mechanism to allow txp to grab these updates automatically when they change.

Re: [deprecated] rah_plugin_download
Why plugin cannot build list of all allowed plugins like, for example, <txp:category_list /> does? It would be very usefull. With attr exclude :)

Or publish them as a feed that something can subscribe to…? (or is that what you meant?)
