Although the extensions platform alpha release is finished there are still a few tasks we want to tackle before 4.2 Beta.

Show-stoppers

Blender:

  • Extensions Update
    • Filter option to show only Update Available #120609
    • Show Available Updates on status bar #120610
    • Splashscreen and Available Extensions Update #120612
    • Repository option to "Check for Updates on Startup" #120613
    • First time dialogs and setups #120665
  • Handle "legacy" add-ons migration.
    • Bring UV Tools to core.
    • Bring Cycles to core.
  • Unify install from disk (installing legacy add-on should go via install from disk as well).

Python side-projects:

  • Support for bundling wheels (.whl) in packages #119681

Server-side:

Documentation:

  • Provide guidance for where extensions should store presets (existing conventions for add-ons may not make sense).

Bugs to investigate/fix

  • Dragging to install an extension from a disabled repository fails silently #120303
  • Renaming a module should rename the directory.
  • The preset operator uses eval() to apply a preset, therefore if you use __package__ it returns the package where the operator lives. Document how this can be solved.
  • We still have warnings on the User Preferences (as oppose to use Blender notification):

Good to have

Blender:

  • The undocumented (advanced) Online Local Repositories should point to a .json, not to a folder.

Python side-projects:

  • API for screen-casting

Archived (done) tasks

Although the extensions platform [alpha release is finished](https://devtalk.blender.org/t/extensions-platform-alpha-launch/33342) there are still a few tasks we want to tackle before 4.2 Beta. ## Show-stoppers Blender: - [ ] Extensions Update - [ ] Filter option to show only Update Available #120609 - [ ] Show Available Updates on status bar #120610 - [ ] Splashscreen and Available Extensions Update #120612 - [ ] Repository option to "Check for Updates on Startup" #120613 - [ ] First time dialogs and setups #120665 - [ ] Handle "legacy" add-ons migration. - [ ] Bring UV Tools to core. - [ ] Bring Cycles to core. - [ ] Unify install from disk (installing legacy add-on should go via install from disk as well). Python side-projects: - [ ] Support for bundling wheels (`.whl`) in packages #119681 Server-side: * [ ] Back-end tasks: https://projects.blender.org/infrastructure/extensions-website/issues/70 Documentation: - [ ] Provide guidance for where extensions should store presets (existing conventions for add-ons may not make sense). ## Bugs to investigate/fix - [ ] Dragging to install an extension from a disabled repository fails silently #120303 - [ ] Renaming a module should rename the directory. - [ ] The [preset operator](https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/src/branch/main/scripts/startup/bl_operators/presets.py) uses eval() to apply a preset, therefore if you use `__package__` it returns the package where the operator lives.

Python side-projects: - [ ] API for screen-casting ## Archived (done) tasks - [x] Local cache still stores `.zip` files. (blender/blender-addons-contrib@a1b0f1b1f4ee807c09f278de2c08ff0a1afe8821) - [x] Disabling "Local Cache" should remove local cache when running an update. (blender/blender-addons-contrib@a1b0f1b1f4ee807c09f278de2c08ff0a1afe8821) - [x] Removing an extension should remove it's local cache. (blender/blender-addons-contrib@a1b0f1b1f4ee807c09f278de2c08ff0a1afe8821) - [x] Add-ons fail to enable silently when installed from disk (e.g., [visibility handler](https://extensions.blender.org/approval-queue/visibility-handler/)). - [x] Investigate why [visibility handler](https://extensions.blender.org/approval-queue/visibility-handler/) doesn't work as extension (it works if you Install as Legacy Add-on). - [x] Investigate why [Co](https://extensions.blender.org/approval-queue/co/) doesn't work as extension (it works if you extract the .py and Install as Legacy Add-on). - [x] Installing an Extension via dragging has no feedback #119500 - [x] Custom directory potential issue #119481 (f64f3e852416698d97c959f8ada10a5ccd44af6a) - [x] Stop with the `bl_info` warning (0b13d1f31a8c8e47def16abcc42f8c210fd50fce). - [x] Extensions UI still showing even when Developers Extra is disabled (0d2c4df346195ca7bff706ebfc9e85449f5d0c6a). - [x] Uninstalling a theme extension should remove it #120289 - [x] Mode "Show Development Utilities" to its own Experimental Flag.
