MacroDeck.Plugin.Packaging

The plugin manifest and artifact format for Macro Deck, factored out of the host so the same code that validates a manifest and reads a .macroDeckPlugin archive inside the host can also run in tooling that packs or validates one outside it.

What is in here:

  • MacroDeck.Plugin.Packaging.Manifest - the manifest.json model (PluginManifest and the records it is built from), IPluginManifestReader and its implementation, and the runtime identifier and permission vocabularies a manifest is validated against.
  • MacroDeck.Plugin.Packaging.Artifacts - the .macroDeckPlugin archive format: names and structural limits, the path-safety policy an archive entry is judged against, the signable artifact digest, IPluginArtifactReader and its implementation, and PluginInstallError.
  • MacroDeck.Plugin.Packaging.Versioning - SemanticVersion and SemanticVersionRange, the small SemVer grammar compatibility and dependency declarations use.
  • PluginManifestJson.Options - the single JsonSerializerOptions instance every manifest is read through, so a manifest can never be parsed by two divergently configured serializers.
  • AddMacroDeckPluginPackaging() - registers IPluginManifestReader and IPluginArtifactReader.

This package has no dependency on the host; it depends only on MacroDeck.Plugin.Protocol for the wire types a manifest's declared compatibility range is checked against.

MacroDeck.Plugin.Testing

Test host, fakes and assertions for a Macro Deck plugin built on MacroDeck.Plugin.Hosting - launch it in-process or as a real process, drive its capabilities, and inspect what it logged and published, without running Macro Deck itself.

MacroDeck.Signing

Macro Deck package signing: the Ed25519 primitives, creator certificate chain verification and package signature formats behind `macrodeck-plugin sign` and `macrodeck-plugin verify`. One implementation of the canonical plugin digest and the signature documents, shared by the Macro Deck host, the plugin CLI and the Macro Deck Platform.
