A rank set add-on is a type of add-on that allows authors to package up rank set images for use in Nova.
Tip
Nova 3 does not allow installing multiple rank sets and letting users choose which they want to see when they're signed in.
Requirements
A properly formatted rank set add-on should have the following:
- An
ranks
directory that contains all of the rank set images, organized exactly how you want them organized - An
Addon.php
file that extends theNova\Addons\RankSet
class
If you create a rank set add-on from Nova, it will create the proper folder structure for you.
Actions
For rank set add-ons, the actions panel will be available to users with the following options:
Install
The install option allows users of the add-on to copy the images to their ranks
directory. This will start by removing all existing images before copying the directory structure from your assets
folder into the ranks
directory.
Uninstall
The uninstall option allows users of the add-on to remove all images and directories from their ranks
directory.
Replace
The replace option allows users of the add-on to replace any similarly named file in the ranks
directory with the version from the add-on's assets
folder. This will leave any image it does not find in the add-on's assets
folder alone, thus preserving any custom images you've added to your ranks
directory.
Append
The append option allows users of the add-on to add any images that do not exist in the ranks
directory, but will leave any existing images alone.
