Expected behavior
No crash. Set proper permissions

To extract as much information as possible we should parse the .plugincompendium file. This simplifies the actual update and synchro process

• Sync process change

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
At the moment the synchro process is quite slow and has a too high overhead. We currently store every plugin in the local database, installed or not. Another problem is that we retrieve a file list for every plugin that is also synced.

Describe the solution you'd like
The API responses are shrinked so when we start the application we perform a request that only contains the title, latest_version, category and plugin_id. We won't sync the files anymore because we don't need them there. If we want to install/update/delete a plugin we retrieve all information.

• Sync at startup
• Catalog Plugin struct optimization
• Overview Plugin struct optimization

Different themes like a default lotr, a gondor and isengard/mordor theme would be great.

Describe the solution you'd like
Extend the settings.json file to store theme configurations. These theme configurations can be json files that are read in while the startup process of the app.

We currently rely on manual testing. For the future we definitely need a straightforward testing pipeline to test critical parts of the application.

Describe the solution you'd like
Unit tests for the core parts of the application

• Plugin Parser
• Synchronizer

Some plugins contain demo plugin files that don't need to be in the actual plugin manager. Therefore it makes sense to create a blacklist with string patterns that should be excluded from the display process

Describe the solution you'd like
Blacklist array with string pattern

Describe the bug
If the user installs a plugin through the catalog the "current version" column isn't updated

To Reproduce
Install some random plugin

Measure the performance of the current database implementation. There might be optimizations that could improve the UX.

Describe the solution you'd like

• Use Query planner to analyse queries
• Check requirements of the Write-Ahead-Log functionality
• Tweak cache size

Describe the bug
The Refresh button logic is buggy. When I click on "Refresh" x plugins are loaded. When I click again on it x-1 are loaded

To Reproduce
Install several plugins and click in the plugins view on "Refresh"

Describe the bug
Application blocks and most likely crashes when clicked on "Update All"

To Reproduce
Click on "Update all"

Expected behavior
No freezing and only updating of outdated versions

Describe the bug
LotRO has plugins that shouldn't be loaded by the plugin manager or user. One of these plugins is the TitanBar Unloader.

Expected behavior
Blacklist these loader plugins

Describe the bug
Right now the config paths are stored as str which leads to ugly conversions. It will be helpful to change these strings into proper paths.

Since Lembas is in the early alpha it makes sense to have an option in the settings panel to backup your existing plugins folder. If Lembas breaks the plugins you can easily recover them to a working state. This backup is fired after every plugin operation like installations or updates.

Describe the solution you'd like

• Settings View
• Checkbox to toggle the backup functionality
• Set backup by default
• settings file as centralized solution for settings like this
• Backup functionality

Currently there is a problem with the text scaling within the application. On desktop computers the scaling is perfect. On laptops is off. This needs to be addressed.

Describe the solution you'd like
Implemented proper scaling: https://docs.rs/winit/latest/winit/dpi/index.html

I definitely need a proper test pipeline for some quality assurance and to provide the needed functionality.

If an addon is not listed in the catalog it could be handy to make it installable directly via the lotrointerface url

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
At the moment the user can install already installed plugins from the catalog panel.

Describe the solution you'd like
Change the button behavior based on their states.

The search in the plugin view is currently not accepting inputs.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Updated plugins can be buggy. So fixing the version until the bug is fixed could be handy.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently lotrointerface is the only site to download plugins. It would be great to have a feature to download plugins directly from the GitHub page if they have one.

Describe the solution you'd like
Implement GitHub download functionality.

Describe the bug
The syncro process don't work properly because of broken packages that are served by lotrointerface.

Expected behavior
Sync process shouldn't be interrupted when a broken package arrives. It should be ignored
