The Plugin Framework
|
This page lists plug-ins packaged with each release of Gramps... the "builtins". There are also dozens of plug-ins that are Third-party Addons, written by users and developers to work only with Gramps version 5.2. |
Gramps comes with a core set of plugins which provide the primary features in a framework that allows expansion.
Customizing the core set of plugins
However, you can also customize this core set. These plugins include reports, filters, View modes, Gramplets, support for various import/export file formats, and more.
From Gramps Preferences, you can check for available extra (or updated) addons and select which to download. Then, they will be retrieved from the internet from the Gramps-Project file server and installed locally on your computer.
Once installed, an addon is found in the same place as a builtin feature of the same Type. That is, Tool addons become new menu items on the Tools menu... while addon Gramplets become new choices in the appropriate Category View sidebar, bottombar or Dashboard options.
Installed addons can be enabled or disabled via the Plugin Manager.

Can not find it? The Plugin Manager is good place to search when a feature is being elusive. |
Plugin List
Addons are listed inside of Gramps through the interface described above. The Plug-in Manager list includes the builtin Gramplets as well as any downloaded third party addons... such as those in the following list.
