The following directory structure is required: - python code: plugins/PLUGINNAME/PLUGINNAME.py (all lower case is recommended) - language files: plugins/PLUGINNAME/lang/(en|de|??).hdf - clearsilver templates: plugins/PLUGINNAME/*.cs - icon (128x128px recommended): plugins/PLUGINNAME/plugin_icon.png Python code interface: - create a class with the same name as the plugin - it must inherit CryptoBoxPlugin - function "doAction": - this function will get called whenever this plugins is involved in a request - all arguments should be optional (e.g. for displaying a form without previous input values) - the argument "store" should be used to process a form submission (just a recommendation) - if the processing failed for some reason (invalid input, ...), it should manually set the "Data.Warning" (resp. "Data.Error" or "Data.Success") to a value of your choice (preferably you may want to use messages of your namespace (e.g. "Plugins.PLUGINNAME.InvalidInput")) - the return value should be the name of the template that should be displayed after processing (a template file in the plugin directory takes precedence over global template files) - the return value may also be a dictionary with the following elements: * template: the name of the template file (mandatory) * generator: a generator object ("yield") - its content will replace every occurrence of "" in the template (useful for pages that are displayed step by step (as for formatting of filesystems)) - an empty (e.g. None) return value can be used to go to the default page (now: the plugin overview) - function "getStatus": - returns a string, that describes a state connected to this plugin (e.g. the current date and time (for the "date" plugin)) - the class variable "pluginCapabilities" must be an array of strings (supported: "system" and "volume") - the class variable "requestAuth" is boolean and defines, if admin authentication is necessary for this plugin - the class variable "rank" is an integer in the range of 0..100 - it determines the order of plugins in listings (lower value -> higher priority) - the class variable "enabled" is boolean and detemines the default availability of the plugin - volume plugins contain the attribute "device" (you may trust this value - a volume plugin will never get called with an invalid device) - the python module which contains the plugin's class should also contain a class called 'unittests' - it should inherit WebInterfaceTestClass.WebInterfaceTestClass Language file structure: - the content of the language file will be added to the hdf dataset below "Lang.Plugins.PLUGINNAME" (this avoids namespace conflicts) - the following values _must_ be defined: Name (a short description) Link (the visible text for links to this plugin) Rank (defines the order of the plugins displayed (0..100)) - all warnings, error and success messages should be stored below WarningMessage.??? (resp. ErrorMessage or SuccessMessage) Clearsilver template: - should start with a "
