OK, I have an addon I'm tweaking. Now I want to see if the tweak works.
In a similar vein, I can:
Can I ask Kodi to reload all addons somehow?
Can I register a new addon with Kodi somehow without making a zip and using the UI to install via zip?
A quick easy way to publish an addon I'm working on to the kodi server would be nice, and I can't seem to find one. This seems overlooked in everything I have read on the wiki and elsewhere to date.
- I find my addon in ~/.kodi/addons/addonid
- I tweak it (just change some text)
- No change in Kodi
- Reload the skin, no change in Kodi
- Exit Kodi, and start it again, the change is reflected in Kodi
In a similar vein, I can:
- copy ~/.kodi/addons/addonid to ~/.kodi/addons/addonid_new
- edit addon.xml and make sure it refers to addonid_new xml:
<addon id="addonid_new" ...>
- tweak that, and it's not even seen by Kodi when I restart Kodi!
