Installation

Clone the Repository

1. Open a terminal or command prompt.
2. Clone the Plugify repository:
   git clone https://github.com/untrustedmodders/plugify.git
   

Build the Project

1. Navigate to the Plugify directory:
   cd plugify
   

2. Create a build folder and configure the project with CMake:
   mkdir build && cd build
   cmake ..
   

3. Build the project:
   cmake --build . --target plug
   

Set Up the res Directory

1. Create a res folder in the root of the repository:
   mkdir ../res
   

2. Inside the res folder, create two subfolders:
   mkdir ../res/extensions
   

3. Place your plugins in the extensions folder and language modules in the extensions folder.

Configure plugify.pconfig

The plug app requires a configuration file named plugify.pconfig in the working directory. This file specifies the path to the res folder and other settings.

1. Create a plugify.pconfig file in the root of the repository (or the working directory where you run plug).
2. Add the following content to the file:
   {
       "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/untrustedmodders/plugify/refs/heads/main/schemas/config.schema.json",
       "baseDir": "res",
       "logSeverity": "debug",
       "preferOwnSymbols": false
   }
   

   • baseDir: Specifies the directory where plugins and language modules are located (default: res).
   • logSeverity: Controls the logging level (e.g., debug, info, error).
   • preferOwnSymbols: Determines whether Plugify should prefer its own symbols over those provided by plugins (set to false for most use cases).

Run the Testing App

1. Navigate to the build directory and run the plug app:
   ./plug
   

2. The app will load any plugins and language modules located in the res folder.
