My version of a plugin repository

(05-22-2015, 07:10 AM)Serial Wrote: I didn't read through all 10 pages so maybe it was already suggested but maybe instead of or including having the plugin repo's website hosted externally instead you link it internally to the built in CMS page and from there we login to our forum accounts and browse plugins it pulls the list of plugins from an external but secure location and click download/install on the plugins we choose and it downloads it directly in to the plugins folder no middle man and thus secure from fake plugins.

If linked to the webadmin, it still needs to be hosted somewhere; as long as by a MCS person, it shouldn't be external.

Linkage to forum/GitHub logins could work, depending on how easily their password hashing can be replicated.

Providing a way to download directly to the Plugins folder from the server is definitely something for consideration, and shouldn't be to hard to add to the webadmin and repository.

What would you mean by middle man and fake plugins? The repository hosts what the plugin developer posts, and with HTTPS, what they uploaded should (at least) be what you download - in that sense, downloading using the browser or the webadmin should be the same. For malicious plugins, that would likely need policing of posts.

Hope that's helpful Smile



ThuGie and bearbin, the repository uses a SQL library for safer requests, would you like to verify that security is indeed improved? Reference: https://forum.cuberite.org/showthread.ph...2#pid20772
