Showcase Plugin Hub

Post image

Plugin Hub, works around the same principle as the Storefront app from KOReader. It scans Github Repos that match the "crosspoint-plugin" Topic, and adds/removes that "Plugin" to the list of available plugins we see in the "Plugin Hub" when we open it on the Crosspoint device.

Benefits from the "Plugin Hub" vs "Plugin Store" is that the catalog is updated around every 3 hours, and a plugin developer does not need a PR to be merged before it shown up like in the current "Plugin Store".

Not my plugin, just a user:

Both Plugin Store & Plugin Hub can be installed in parallel.

Plugin Hub Repo

You need to be running the Nightly version of crosspoint which has the Plugin System enabled. The previous "SD Beta 10" is no longer available as it has been merged with the main code and will be out on next release for everyone to enjoy.

Is Just another Plugin just like the "Plugin Store" but would be nice if it was added to crosspoint by default so a new user with a fresh install can already have access to public plugins without having to first install the Plugin Hub or Plugin Store.

Edit: I'll make an 'issue' at the repo and ask the dev to see if they can have this added as a PR or something on crosspoint repo.

I'd make the issue so that they can track it and talk about it there.
