List of Plugin Ideas (Brainstorm)

[sc2ad]

• 2.4 plugin: verifies BSIPA manifest, assembly version, format (zip)
• Tags:
  • A way of attaching a particular tag to a mod
  • A way of getting the tags of a particular mod
  • A way of filtering mods based off of tags
• Media plugin: Can associate media with a mod, a logo, a preview, a video
• An endpoint for getting all mods made by a given user
• Share a mod for editing with a particular set of usernames (unique users)
• Webhooks for: Stuff
• Approval:
  • Channel movement for mods, particular permissions attached to the user
  • People can approve mods, people who can't (not anyone who signs up can approve, perhaps)
• Some sort of "certified badge" (could may tie into tags)
• Possibly a super user plugin, which would hold on to a collection of elevated permissions and users with them and stuff
• An archive channel, no one can delete, mods that would otherwise be deleted would move to an archive channel and be there
• Trusted role: Expedited process for approval/publishing
• Upload workflow:
  • Upload to possibly-malicious (is it a virus? ok, no, goes to beta)
  • After testing in beta channel, can be approved and put on the public channel
  • Trusted role would skip first bullet here
• Reevaluating self-approvals: Remove the concept of self-approvals
• Eris plugin

Another plugin idea that I'd like to see is a downloads counter. Implementation could of done in various degrees:

• Could be as simple as simple as just a total download count for a specific version
• A slightly more detailed x downloads in the past y days
• Download stats per day basis with history

Of course, this is just a suggestion so feel free to play around with the idea as you see fit 😸

Expanding upon trusted role idea so you dont forget

2 step approval so there is a code review and stability approval (to get the mod up)

Modders can only do code approval Modders and supports can do stability approval

If rejected in any one step, the mod will have to be reupped and the process is repeated

Modpack plugin Ability to bundle together multiple approved mods as a curated modpack So if a streamer wants essential streaming mods for example, they can select the modpack and get all mods in one click

BMBF integration? Quest Mod Validation? AKA - read mod.json from qmod file and dynamically generate version stuff?

similar to how curseforge does it with MC mods?
