Nuka1195's Repository for plugins/scripts w/SVN Repo Installer

[Nuka1195]

UPDATED to version 1.5.2: now includes BigBellyBilly's update check module.
http://xbmc-addons.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins

SVN Repo Installer plugin:
http://xbmc-addons.googlecode.com/svn/packages/plugins/programs/SVN_Repo_Installer.zip

The first listing you will see is all the available repos and a Check for Updates item. The check for updates will find all plugins and scripts, then check if there is a new version in svn. there are two settings off by default. 1. Updates: Show Addons not in SVN? and 2. Updates: Show Addons wihout a version?


Version 1.3.1, for backwards compatability
http://xbmc-addons.googlecode.com/sv...ller_1.3.1.zip

If your platform does not have a programs section, you can install this in /plugins/video as a hack or put it in /plugins/programs and add a link in your favourites.xml.

Example favourites.xml
Xbox

PHP Code:

<favourites>
    <favourite name="SVN Repo Installer" thumb="q:\plugins\programs\SVN Repo Installer\default.tbn">ActivateWindow(10001,plugin://programs/SVN Repo Installer/)</favourite>
</favourites> 


Other platforms

PHP Code:

<favourites>
    <favourite name="SVN Repo Installer" thumb="u:\plugins\programs\SVN Repo Installer\default.tbn">ActivateWindow(10001,plugin://programs/SVN Repo Installer/)</favourite>
</favourites> 


thanks to VDRFan for the above idea


What to do with unmaintained or unfixable plugins/scripts:
Developers please remove any plugins or scripts from xbmc-addons and xbmc-scripting svn's if they are not going to be maintained or if they are unfixable.

Here is a temporary installer.
http://xbmc-addons.googlecode.com/sv...ler_Plugin.zip

It is a plugin.

1. unzip to "q:\\plugins\\programs\\"
2. goto programs/add source/browse/program plugins
3. highlight "XBMC-Addons Installer Plugin" and press the ok button

To Use:
Just select each category or item, when you select an item it will ask to install.

If no items are available it will not drill down. currently there are only two video plugins, one music plugin, one programs plugin.

Great! Haven't had the chance to use this yet, will try tonight. Hope we get the whole plugins package on that site soon! Best thing to happen with xbmc in awhile in my opinion.

a little tip, if you want to add the installer as a source in a multipath.

just add "plugin://programs/" as the source, this way it's listed as an item instead of the root directories of svn.

yes plugins are nice, thanks to umbehagen for the feature. he also has access to the site now, so i'm sure he'll be adding them shortly.

eg.

 
<source>
  <name>Programs</name>
  <path>E:\Apps\</path>
  <path>plugin://programs/</path>
</source>

Good call Nuka. Will be great when we've got them all added.

It's amazing watching the way every breakthrough in XBMC heralds a succession of others. We're really standing on the shoulders of giants.

xbmc-addons has also skins folder

Jezz_X made some beautifully themes for xbmc skins - can u add this to Addons Installer

My Appologize for the installer, i had scripts incorrect and they wouldn't install, here is an updated version.

http://xbmc-addons.googlecode.com/sv...ler_Plugin.zip

whatever is in the svn will install. so if any skinners would like ther skins included we will.

We need to establish a folder structure, so themes could be separate and do we want it used as an svn which is what i do. (Makes updating and adding new languages easier) or only download zipped packages.

[smuto]

so we must wait for Jezz_X decision

one more
can we have some kind of automatic add every taged version of script from xbmc-scripting to xbmc-addons

Hi

Please forgive my ignorance but can you explain what you mean by :

"a little tip, if you want to add the installer as a source in a multipath"
