# Installing third party plugins
|
|
|
|
Most ikiwiki plugins are perl modules and should be installed somewhere in
|
|
the perl module search path. See the @INC list at the end of the output of
|
|
`perl -V` for a list of the directories in that path. All plugins are in
|
|
the IkiWiki::Plugin namespace, so they go in a IkiWiki/Plugin subdirectory
|
|
inside the perl search path. For example, if your perl looks in
|
|
`/usr/local/lib/site_perl` for modules, you can locally install ikiwiki
|
|
plugins to `/usr/local/lib/site_perl/IkiWiki/Plugin`
|
|
|
|
You can use the `libdir` configuration option to add a directory to the
|
|
search path. For example, if you set `libdir` to `/home/you/.ikiwiki/`,
|
|
then ikiwiki will look for plugins in `/home/you/.ikiwiki/IkiWiki/Plugins`.
|
|
|
|
Ikiwiki also supports plugins that are external programs. These are
|
|
typically written in some other language than perl. Ikiwiki searches for
|
|
these in /usr/lib/ikiwiki/plugins by default. If `libdir` is set, it will
|
|
also look in that directory, for example in `/home/you/.ikiwiki/plugins`.
