      Hello everyone

      Can we make a plugin dowloader / installer / license manager application like below one, with HISE?

      This application will download selected zip files (plugins) then unzip and copy to the dedicated folders. Is it possible?

        You can download files but you can't unzip them automatically, if you use HISE's expansion system though it will unpack the expansion for you.

          @d-healey Ok thank you.
          It would be great to be able to unzip also.

            @harris-rosendahl If you're skilled enough I reckon JUCE has a zip file management. You might be able to wrap it in Hise...

            Can't help pressing F5 in the forum...

                @harris-rosendahl Why do you want to include a zip file downloader in your plugin?

                  @d-healey In case of so many plugins, I think this kind of all in one (license authentication, downloading and installation) system is much more easy to use for a customer.

                    @harris-rosendahl I thought so, this is what the expansion system is for. You don't need to send them zips, you send them expansions and use the built in tools to let the user install them directly from your plugin.

                      @d-healey Ok. Is the expansion system for the sample library installation of the instrument plugins?

                      What about fx plugins? Can we use expansions system to install fx plugins (aax, vst3, vst, au)?

                        @harris-rosendahl Expansions are for addons to your plugin, probably no point in using it for FX plugins because you could just ship additional presets and there is already a built in installer for those in the preset browser tile.
