A plugin contain three files:
| • | desc.rtf (currently unused) |
Development
| 1. | Find the plugin storage directory
Normally located at C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Hondata\FlashProManager\Plugins, the easiest way to open this location is to double click to directory pathname as shown in the the bottom of the Manage Plugins window.
|
| 2. | Create a directory for your plugin.
|
| 3. | Create main.lua file in the plugin directory
|
| 4. | Edit main.lua with a starting script
-- script skeleton
require("utilities")
-- called when user invokes script from menu
function main
-- add here
end
|
| 5. | The implementation of the script using Lua is beyond the scope of this help. |
Distribution
| 1. | Create a description file desc.rtf for your plugin.
The description file is a rich text format file that contains a description of the plugin.
|
| 2. | Create an information file info.xml for your plugin. |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plugin>
<id>test_plugin</id>
<version>1</version>
<name>Name of Plugin</name>
<description>Plugin description</description>
<author></author>
<url></url>
<license>Apache 2.0 License</license>
<depends></depends>
</plugin>
id should be unique
| 3. | Zip the three files (main.lua, desc.rtf, info.xml) into a single zip file.
If the plugin has additional source files then include those in the zip as well.
|
| 4. | Change the file extension from .zip to .fplugin |
