## Overview

Batch Install Plugins from GitHub is a new tool for OpenWebUI that enables one-click installation of multiple plugins directly from GitHub repositories. This initial release includes comprehensive features for discovering, filtering, and installing plugins with user confirmation, extensive multi-language support, and robust debugging capabilities for container deployments.

**[📖 README](https://github.com/Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions/blob/main/plugins/tools/batch-install-plugins/README.md)**

## Features

- **One-Click Installation**: Install all plugins from a repository with a single command
- **Smart Plugin Discovery**: Parse Python files to extract metadata and validate plugins automatically
- **Multi-Type Support**: Support Pipe, Action, Filter, and Tool plugins in a single operation
- **Confirmation Dialog**: Display plugin list before installation for user review and approval
- **Selective Installation**: Exclude specific plugins using keyword-based filtering
- **Smart Fallback**: Container deployments auto-retry with localhost:8080 if primary connection fails
- **Enhanced Debugging**: Rich frontend JavaScript and backend Python logs for troubleshooting
- **Extended Timeout**: 120-second confirmation window for thoughtful decision-making
- **Async Architecture**: Non-blocking I/O operations for better performance
- **Full Internationalization**: Complete support for 11 languages with proper fallback maps
- **Auto-Update**: Automatically updates previously installed plugins
- **Self-Exclusion**: Automatically excludes the tool itself from batch operations

## Technical Highlights

- **httpx Integration**: Modern async HTTP client for reliable, non-blocking requests
- **Event Emitter Support**: Proper handling of OpenWebUI event injection with fallbacks
- **Timeout Protection**: Wrapped frontend execution with timeout guards to prevent hanging
- **Filtered List Consistency**: Uses single source of truth for confirmation and installation
- **Error Localization**: All error messages are user-facing and properly localized across languages
- **Deployment Resilience**: Intelligent base URL resolution handles domain, localhost, and containerized environments

## Supported Repositories

- **Default**: Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions (strict validation)
- **Custom**: Any GitHub repository with Python plugin files

## Testing

Comprehensive regression tests included:
- Filtered installation list consistency
- Missing event emitter handling
- Confirmation timeout verification
- Full failure scenarios
- Localization completeness
- Connection error debug logging and smart fallback

All 6 tests pass successfully.

## Documentation

- English README with flow diagrams and usage examples
- Chinese README (README_CN.md) with complete translations
- Mirrored documentation for official docs site
