Extensions from Portainer not Appearing

[daveroxs12]

I installed extensions into /portainer/Files/AppData/Config/FreshRSS/www/freshrss/extensions

Inside of the folder is the "README.md" file, stating the extension should be placed into this file.

However, the extensions are not appearing under the extensions tab on my FreshRSS page.

Why can I do about this?

This should be the correct path:

freshrss/extensions/extension1/

in extension1 you will find all extension files f.e. metadata.json

[daveroxs12]

After SSHing into the freshrss/extensions, there is no extension1 folder.

Should I create the extension1folder and manually create a metadata.json file and copy and paste the contents from freshrss?

Thanks for your help so far

. Trying to access the extension1 Directory:

Let me help you.

Which extension do you want install?

[daveroxs12]

I want to add the FreshRSS_Extension-ReadingTime by Lapineige. (Link Here - https://framagit.org/Lapineige/FreshRSS_Extension-ReadingTime)

[math-GH]

OK. Here is how it works:

create a new folder in freshrss/extensions/ (folder name f.e. ReadingTime). Copy the files into this new folder.

Result: freshrss/extensions/ReadingTime/:

• static
• LICENCE
• README.md
• extension.php
• metadata.json

[daveroxs12]

All right. Thank You for your assistance. I successfully installed the extension

Now I understand why you had this question.

The official extensions repository describes how to install: https://github.com/FreshRSS/Extensions but your preferred extension has no description.

I will add the information into the FreshRSS manual

@daveroxs12 : I would recommend to use this extension repository: https://github.com/FreshRSS/Extensions/tree/master/xExtension-ReadingTime because it looks like a bit more maintained

[daveroxs12]

Ok. Will do.
