Development Template & Guide for Q-Sys LUA Plugins on Q-Sys Community, for deployment to GitHub Package Registry
Clone a plugin repository to your development folder (Note: Not your User Plugins folder)
git clone
Navigate to your User Plugins folder
%userprofile%\Documents\QSC\Q-Sys Designer\Plugins
To develop plugins, copy the .qplug to your plugins folder and copy back when done.
You may use a symantic link, designer does not reload them when saved so needs to be restarted to pick up on changes, possibly due to how it watches files.
Create a symbolic link to the .qplug file in the cloned repository using PowerShell
New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path ".\q-sys-plugin-template.qplug" -Target "C:\yourpath\GitHub\Q-Sys-Plugin-Template\content\q-sys-plugin-template.qplug"
