nppPluginManager 1.14.1

Plugin Manager that allows you to install, update and remove plugins for Notepad++. A centrally hosted XML file holds the list of plugins, that the plugin manager downloads and processes against the list of installed plugins.

Features

• Install, Update and Remove all existing plugins
• Notify when an installed plugin has an update available, and allow the user to update directly
• Calculate dependencies between plugins, any plugin can depend on another plugin, which will be installed automatically if the user installs the initial plugin
• Install all supplemental files as well as the plugin file itself (e.g. config, doc, extra libraries)
• Automatic installation of the correct version (ANSI/Unicode) for your Notepad++
• Validation of DLLs copied, against a central list of valid files. This slightly mitigates the risk of automatically downloading updates.
• Only plugins that are compatible with your Notepad++ are shown
• Plugins can be put into categories - a suggestion was made of "Official, Common and Others". Currently all plugins are in the "Others" category, as I think there needs to be some agreement as to what determines an "Official" plugin and which plugins are "Common".
• Plugin Manager is able to update itself, and will notify the user when an update is available
• Proxies are supported, just change the setting
• Updates can be ignored, and the user will not be alerted to that update again, until a further new version of that plugin is released.
• The local plugin list file is only downloaded when something has changed - the MD5sum of the file is compared to the server's version, and if it is different, then a new copy is downloaded.
• New for 0.9: Works with plugins that are installed multiple times - update them all or individually
