Plugin Config

For all regular fields in a plugin config go here. The following fields described are the ones needed to migrate lua toolkits to python plugins.

Fields

Field Name	Required	Type	Description
luaName	N	string	The name of the lua toolkit this plugin should upgrade from. This field is required if the minimumLuaVersion is defined.
minimumLuaVersion	N	string	The lowest major minor version of the lua toolkit that upgrade is supported from. This field is required if the luaName is defined.

Example

Assume a lua toolkit with the following main.json file:

Here is a valid plugin config for a plugin that wants to be upgradable from the toolkit:

id: ea009cb4-f76b-46dc-bbb6-689e7acecce4
name: DelphixDB
luaName: delphixdb
minimumLuaVersion: "1.0"
language: PYTHON27
hostTypes:
- UNIX
pluginType: STAGED
entryPoint: plugin_runner:plugin
srcDir: src
schemaFile: schema.json
buildNumber: 2.0.0

id and luaName fields in plugins versus name field in toolkits

• If the id of the plugin being uploaded happens to match the name in the toolkit already installed on the engine, the upload will fail regardless of what the luaName is. Otherwise, the luaName will be used to determine if an already uploaded lua toolkit is considered a lower version of the plugin being uploaded. If the luaName is not set then no lua toolkit will be upgraded.
• When uploading a plugin with the luaName set, that luaName and id pair will be the only pair uploaded successfully. Uploading a new plugin with the same luaName but different id will fail.
