Info on packaging projects for upload to our.umbraco.org?
From what I can tell, there is no official Umbraco documentation on this yet, but I'm looking for any info I can find on how to put together a package installation file, for uploading to a project page on our.umbraco.org. I made a property editor that I'd like to share, but I don't know how to package it up for sharing/installation.
Does anyone know of any up-to-date sources of information on this?
Package as normal in the packager in the developer section, then include the files needed - there is a file picker for this in the packager UI, just point it to the app_plugins folder you use - and any dlls etc.
Wow, has that been there all along? I've been using Umbraco for a while now, and somehow I managed to never notice the "Created Packages" node in the Developer section before. Simpler than I thought!
Thanks Per.
EDIT: Just a suggestion here - I think the reason that the "Created Packages" node didn't come to mind for me as the place to go is because it's written past tense, implying that it's just a historical list of previously created packages. I think if it were renamed to something like "My Packages", it might be clearer to people that it's also where you make a new package.
