-# Dispatcharr Plugins
-
-This document explains how to build, install, and use Python plugins in Dispatcharr. It covers discovery, the plugin interface, settings, actions, how to access application APIs, and examples.
-
----
-
-## Quick Start
-
-1) Create a folder under `/app/data/plugins/my_plugin/` (host path `data/plugins/my_plugin/` in the repo).
-
-2) Add a `plugin.py` file exporting a `Plugin` class:
-
-```
-# /app/data/plugins/my_plugin/plugin.py
-class Plugin:
-    name = "My Plugin"
-    version = "0.1.0"
-    description = "Does something useful"
-
-    # Settings fields rendered by the UI and persisted by the backend
-    fields = [
-        {"id": "enabled", "label": "Enabled", "type": "boolean", "default": True},
-        {"id": "limit", "label": "Item limit", "type": "number", "default": 5},
-        {"id": "mode", "label": "Mode", "type": "select", "default": "safe",
-         "options": [
-            {"value": "safe", "label": "Safe"},
-            {"value": "fast", "label": "Fast"},
-         ]},
-        {"id": "note", "label": "Note", "type": "string", "default": ""},
-    ]
-
-    # Actions appear as buttons. Clicking one calls run(action, params, context)
-    actions = [
-        {"id": "do_work", "label": "Do Work", "description": "Process items"},
-    ]
-
-    def run(self, action: str, params: dict, context: dict):
-        settings = context.get("settings", {})
-        logger = context.get("logger")
-
-        if action == "do_work":
-            limit = int(settings.get("limit", 5))
-            mode = settings.get("mode", "safe")
-            logger.info(f"My Plugin running with limit={limit}, mode={mode}")
-            # Do a small amount of work here. Schedule Celery tasks for heavy work.
-            return {"status": "ok", "processed": limit, "mode": mode}
-
-        return {"status": "error", "message": f"Unknown action {action}"}
-```
-
-3) Open the Plugins page in the UI, click the refresh icon to reload discovery, then configure and run your plugin.
-
----
-
-## Where Plugins Live
-
-- Default directory: `/app/data/plugins` inside the container.
-- Override with env var: `DISPATCHARR_PLUGINS_DIR`.
-- Each plugin is a directory containing either:
-  - `plugin.py` exporting a `Plugin` class, or
-  - a Python package (`__init__.py`) exporting a `Plugin` class.
-
-The directory name (lowercased, spaces as `_`) is used as the registry key and module import path (e.g. `my_plugin.plugin`).
-
----
-
-## Discovery & Lifecycle
-
-- Discovery runs at server startup and on-demand when:
-  - Fetching the plugins list from the UI
-  - Hitting `POST /api/plugins/plugins/reload/`
-- The loader imports each plugin module and instantiates `Plugin()`.
-- Metadata (name, version, description) and a per-plugin settings JSON are stored in the DB.
-
-Backend code:
-- Loader: `apps/plugins/loader.py`
-- API Views: `apps/plugins/api_views.py`
-- API URLs: `apps/plugins/api_urls.py`
-- Model: `apps/plugins/models.py` (stores `enabled` flag and `settings` per plugin)
-
----
-
-## Plugin Interface
-
-Export a `Plugin` class. Supported attributes and behavior:
-
-- `name` (str): Human-readable name.
-- `version` (str): Semantic version string.
-- `description` (str): Short description.
-- `fields` (list): Settings schema used by the UI to render controls.
-- `actions` (list): Available actions; the UI renders a Run button for each.
-- `run(action, params, context)` (callable): Invoked when a user clicks an action.
-
-### Settings Schema
-Supported field `type`s:
-- `boolean`
-- `number`
-- `string`
-- `select` (requires `options`: `[{"value": ..., "label": ...}, ...]`)
-
-Common field keys:
-- `id` (str): Settings key.
-- `label` (str): Label shown in the UI.
-- `type` (str): One of above.
-- `default` (any): Default value used until saved.
-- `help_text` (str, optional): Shown under the control.
-- `options` (list, for select): List of `{value, label}`.
-
-The UI automatically renders settings and persists them. The backend stores settings in `PluginConfig.settings`.
-
-Read settings in `run` via `context["settings"]`.
-
-### Actions
-Each action is a dict:
-- `id` (str): Unique action id.
-- `label` (str): Button label.
-- `description` (str, optional): Helper text.
-
-Clicking an action calls your plugin’s `run(action, params, context)` and shows a notification with the result or error.
-
-### Action Confirmation (Modal)
-Developers can request a confirmation modal per action using the `confirm` key on the action. Options:
-
-- Boolean: `confirm: true` will show a default confirmation modal.
-- Object: `confirm: { required: true, title: '...', message: '...' }` to customize the modal title and message.
-
-Example:
-```
-actions = [
-    {
-        "id": "danger_run",
-        "label": "Do Something Risky",
-        "description": "Runs a job that affects many records.",
-        "confirm": { "required": true, "title": "Proceed?", "message": "This will modify many records." },
-    }
-]
-```
-
----
-
-## Accessing Dispatcharr APIs from Plugins
-
-Plugins are server-side Python code running within the Django application. You can:
-
-- Import models and run queries/updates:
-  ```
-  from apps.m3u.models import M3UAccount
-  from apps.epg.models import EPGSource
-  from apps.channels.models import Channel
-  from core.models import CoreSettings
-  ```
-
-- Dispatch Celery tasks for heavy work (recommended):
-  ```
-  from apps.m3u.tasks import refresh_m3u_accounts            # apps/m3u/tasks.py
-  from apps.epg.tasks import refresh_all_epg_data            # apps/epg/tasks.py
-
-  refresh_m3u_accounts.delay()
-  refresh_all_epg_data.delay()
-  ```
-
-- Send WebSocket updates:
-  ```
-  from core.utils import send_websocket_update
-  send_websocket_update('updates', 'update', {"type": "plugin", "plugin": "my_plugin", "message": "Done"})
-  ```
-
-- Use transactions:
-  ```
-  from django.db import transaction
-  with transaction.atomic():
-      # bulk updates here
-      ...
-  ```
-
-- Log via provided context or standard logging:
-  ```
-  def run(self, action, params, context):
-      logger = context.get("logger")  # already configured
-      logger.info("running action %s", action)
-  ```
-
-Prefer Celery tasks (`.delay()`) to keep `run` fast and non-blocking.
-
----
-
-## REST Endpoints (for UI and tooling)
-
-- List plugins: `GET /api/plugins/plugins/`
-  - Response: `{ "plugins": [{ key, name, version, description, enabled, fields, settings, actions }, ...] }`
-- Reload discovery: `POST /api/plugins/plugins/reload/`
-- Import plugin: `POST /api/plugins/plugins/import/` with form-data file field `file`
-- Update settings: `POST /api/plugins/plugins/<key>/settings/` with `{"settings": {...}}`
-- Run action: `POST /api/plugins/plugins/<key>/run/` with `{"action": "id", "params": {...}}`
-- Enable/disable: `POST /api/plugins/plugins/<key>/enabled/` with `{"enabled": true|false}`
-
-Notes:
-- When disabled, a plugin cannot run actions; backend returns HTTP 403.
-
----
-
-## Importing Plugins
-
-- In the UI, click the Import button on the Plugins page and upload a `.zip` containing a plugin folder.
-- The archive should contain either `plugin.py` or a Python package (`__init__.py`).
-- On success, the UI shows the plugin name/description and lets you enable it immediately (plugins are disabled by default).
-
----
-
-## Enabling / Disabling Plugins
-
-- Each plugin has a persisted `enabled` flag (default: disabled) and `ever_enabled` flag in the DB (`apps/plugins/models.py`).
-- New plugins are disabled by default and require an explicit enable.
-- The first time a plugin is enabled, the UI shows a trust warning modal explaining that plugins can run arbitrary server-side code.
-- The Plugins page shows a toggle in the card header. Turning it off dims the card and disables the Run button.
-- Backend enforcement: Attempts to run an action for a disabled plugin return HTTP 403.
-
----
-
-## Example: Refresh All Sources Plugin
-
-Path: `data/plugins/refresh_all/plugin.py`
-
-```
-class Plugin:
-    name = "Refresh All Sources"
-    version = "1.0.0"
-    description = "Force refresh all M3U accounts and EPG sources."
-
-    fields = [
-        {"id": "confirm", "label": "Require confirmation", "type": "boolean", "default": True,
-         "help_text": "If enabled, the UI should ask before running."}
-    ]
-
-    actions = [
-        {"id": "refresh_all", "label": "Refresh All M3Us and EPGs",
-         "description": "Queues background refresh for all active M3U accounts and EPG sources."}
-    ]
-
-    def run(self, action: str, params: dict, context: dict):
-        if action == "refresh_all":
-            from apps.m3u.tasks import refresh_m3u_accounts
-            from apps.epg.tasks import refresh_all_epg_data
-            refresh_m3u_accounts.delay()
-            refresh_all_epg_data.delay()
-            return {"status": "queued", "message": "Refresh jobs queued"}
-        return {"status": "error", "message": f"Unknown action: {action}"}
-```
-
----
-
-## Best Practices
-
-- Keep `run` short and schedule heavy operations via Celery tasks.
-- Validate and sanitize `params` received from the UI.
-- Use database transactions for bulk or related updates.
-- Log actionable messages for troubleshooting.
-- Only write files under `/data` or `/app/data` paths.
-- Treat plugins as trusted code: they run with full app permissions.
-
----
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-- Plugin not listed: ensure the folder exists and contains `plugin.py` with a `Plugin` class.
-- Import errors: the folder name is the import name; avoid spaces or exotic characters.
-- No confirmation: include a boolean field with `id: "confirm"` and set it to true or default true.
-- HTTP 403 on run: the plugin is disabled; enable it from the toggle or via the `enabled/` endpoint.
-
----
-
-## Contributing
-
-- Keep dependencies minimal. Vendoring small helpers into the plugin folder is acceptable.
-- Use the existing task and model APIs where possible; propose extensions if you need new capabilities.
