Title: Is there a simple guide to plugin development?
Post by: ChampagnePerry on October 18, 2022, 10:42:17 AM
I know this is a long shot but does anyone have an idiots guide to developing plugins for Archi?
I would like to get one of my developers to have a shot at contributing but don't know what to point them at.
I realise there may not be.
Thanks for any advice (as long as it's not too sarcastic)

There's this:

https://github.com/archimatetool/archi/wiki/Developing-Import-and-Export-Plug-ins

And really it's a case of studying existing plug-ins.

Hi,

Just a remark: depending on your exact need, it might be easier to develop a jArchi script instead of a "real" plugin.
