Full Version: How to Include an addon that is not in the official repo?

Hello!

I'd like to include an option in Shade-Eden so that the use can use "Metadata actor". In terms of launching the script, I guess I only need to set

Code:
condition="Skin.HasAddon(script.foo)
or ? (I'll check later on the correct syntax)
Code:
condition="System.HasAddon(script.foo)

But in the skin setting's page... I'd like to have an option to enable "Metadata actor". By clicking on the option, I'd like the skin to check if the addon is present. If present, enable the option. If not present, show a dialog with instructions on how to install the addon.

Is that possible?

Thanks a lot!
System.HasAddon() is the correct term.
you could look at the Addons page from Nox in skin settings area. we´re doing something similar there. code is in custom_1111.... xml

EDIT: btw, metadata actor script is on the official repo.
Thanks, will look at it! Smile
