Suggestion: Disable plugins

Open texaspete opened this issue 8 years ago • 5 comments

A way to enable/disable plugins (without having to remove the plugin from the plugins folder).

Rename with en extension .disabled eg plugin.disabled

I was thinking to be able to do it via the interface.

NB: At least when running under PyCharm debugging you can't rename a plugin folder whilst the plugin is in use by EDMC. So, that would have to happen after unloading the plugin.

And you can't actually unload a plugin... so this would need to be predicated on something like creating a filename of plugin_folder.disabled.

Hmm, if a plugin has a plugin.stop function, could we theoretically call that, and then mark the plugin to be moved to a .disabled folder, then restart EDMC? Not sure if that's an option.
