Overhaul - Plugin System about jimi HOT 3 CLOSED

To expand on dependency checking - I'm planning to add jimiVersion as well as version to the main plugin files. Let me know what you think

from jimi.

Should we add jimiMinVersion, jimiMaxVersion and then if these are unset use todays behaviour. Would be good if these could be separate as well i.e.

jimiMinVersion = "1.8"

Would result in only installing on jimi whereby the version is 1.8+

If you used max and min together you could lock a plugin to only install between 1.8 and 2.0

Would it also be worth having an versionCheckOverride bool so that a dev can handle the version within the plugin itself. You could have a plugin that works for both 1.0 and 2.0 but just some features are disabled by the dev.

Bit unrelation but a check for other dependant plugins would also be cool like inga which requires remote to be installed

from jimi.

Good shout, min and max definitely make sense!
And yeah I think the more control given to devs the better (where it doesn't impact the security or integrity of the system of course lol)
