Create Custom Device / Plugin Packages

The Connexion UI can package custom devices (plugins) into Nuget packages which can then be deployed to other Connexion or Remote Agent instances. There are several different UIs available to create packages.

The simplest way to create a package is to select the device you wish to export and choose the Export to Nuget command on the context menu.

The Nuget Package dialog will be displayed where you can enter details for this package.

Most of the fields will be pre-populated with default values. You must enter a Title and Description before you can create the package. You can use the Tags field along with the information displayed by the Connexion Package Specs button to modify how the package is displayed within the Connexion Package Manager (which is used to browse and import packages with the Connexion UI).

You can optionally confirm the contents of the Nuget package by opening it with any Zip viewer.

Packages can also be created by the Plugin Manager dialog.
