This file https://github.com/openenergymonitor/EmonScripts/blob/658d982aa968076071d46df87ab9174d3c9df1e7/components_available.json is used directly from Modules/admin/admin_model.php components_available() function at the follow address:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openenergymonitor/EmonScripts/stable/components_available.json
Suggest to add :
- description -> optional text that appear on the component module list
- branches_available -> optional install branches
- isModule -> true if it's a standard emoncms module
- install_path -> optional location if installation is not %emon_path%/modules Dont use hard coded absolute paths, use template like %var% that gets replaced by installation script to accommodate different servers.
Example:
{
"emoncms":{
"name":"Emoncms Core",
"description": "Some text about this module that appear on the component module list",
"url":"https://github.com/emoncms/emoncms.git",
"branches_available ": {"master", "stable"},
"install_path": "%emon_path%",
"isModule": false
},
"app":{
"name":"App",
"url":"https://github.com/emoncms/app.git",
"description": "Some text about this module that appear on the component module list",
"branches_available ": {"master", "stable"},
"install_path": "",
"isModule": true
}
}
