Power Up

Power Up is Fantasy Grounds extension that allows a user to see the name of extensions that have been updated since the last time the campaign was loaded. Power Up also allows for customization and control of the loading on player modules by the GM.

The slash command /powerup will show which extensions have been updated since the last time the campaign was loaded.

The slash command: /powerupman will show which extensions have been updated since the last time /powerupman was run on the host.

Extension Devs:

For PowerUp to process your extension correctly you need to have a version in your extension.xml file

versionX.Y/version

FG doesn't process micro versions so X.Y.Z the Z gets stripped off and it also doesn't like any characters, only numbers.

Alternatively, If you want to use your own version string you can register with PowerUp with the following code in your onInit function where "My Extension Name" and "My Extension Version" are both strings. You will need to have your own process of making sure "My Extension Version" is updated every time you update your extension. To use this method, your load order must be above 10

if PowerUp then
	if PowerUp.registerExtension("My Extension Name", "My Extension Version") == 0 then
        --successfully registered
    else
        --error registering
    end
end

function onInit()
    if PowerUp then
       PowerUp.registerExtension("My Extension Name", "My Extension Version", {
                {
                    ['link'] = "https://github.com/FG-Unofficial-Developers-Guild/",
                    ['message'] = "v0.9\nAdded registration code"
                },
                {
                    ['link'] = "https://fgapp.idea.informer.com/",
                    ['message'] = "Please vote for this on the idea informer wishlist",
                    ['icon'] = "shooting_star"
                },
            }
        )
    end
end
