Creating the project

You can generate a .NET project for your plugin using the Logi Plugin Tool. The tool is a .NET console application that can be used to manage Logi Actions plugins.

The plugin tool can be downloaded from the Logi Developer site.

With the plugin tool you can create a template plugin project, package and validate a plugin.

Once you have downloaded the tool, unpack it to some location, then to create a template plugin project execute the following commands on the command line:

Windows

cd <PROJECTS LOCATION>
<TOOL LOCATION>\LogiPluginTool.exe generate -name=<PLUGIN NAME>

Mac

cd <PROJECTS LOCATION>
<TOOL LOCATION>/dotnet LogiPluginTool.dll generate -name=<PLUGIN NAME>

Where

  • <PROJECTS LOCATION> is the directory path where your project files will be created to;
  • <TOOL LOCATION> is the directory path where you have unpacked the Logi Plugin Tool;
  • <PLUGIN NAME> is the desired name for your plugin. Note that the tool automatically adds a 'Plugin' suffix to the name of the generated directory and project files.
