## How to Use

1. Open OpenWebUI and go to **Workspace > Tools**
2. Install **Batch Install Plugins from GitHub** from the marketplace
3. Enable this tool for your model/chat
4. Ask the model to install plugins

## Interactive Installation Workflow

Each request handles one repository. To mix repositories, send another request after the previous installation completes.

After plugin discovery and filtering, OpenWebUI opens a browser dialog built with the `execute` event so you can check exactly which plugins to install before the API calls start.

## Quick Start: Install Popular Collections

Copy any of these prompts and paste them into your chat:

```
# Install all from my collection (default)
Install all plugins

# Add popular community tools
Install all plugins from iChristGit/OpenWebui-Tools

# Add utility-focused extensions
Install all plugins from Haervwe/open-webui-tools

# Add mixed community implementations
Install all plugins from Classic298/open-webui-plugins

# Add function-based plugins
Install all plugins from suurt8ll/open_webui_functions

# Add OpenRouter pipe integration
Install all plugins from rbb-dev/Open-WebUI-OpenRouter-pipe
```

Each line is a separate request. Already installed plugins are automatically updated.

## Usage Examples

For more advanced usage patterns:

```
# Filter by plugin type
"Install only tool plugins from iChristGit/OpenWebui-Tools"
"Install only action plugins from Classic298/open-webui-plugins"

# Exclude specific plugins
"Install all plugins from Haervwe/open-webui-tools, exclude_keywords=test,deprecated"

# Install from your own repository
"Install all plugins from your-username/my-plugin-collection"
```

## Default Repository

When no repository is specified, the tool uses `Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions` (my personal collection).

## Plugin Detection Rules

### Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions (Strict)

For the default repository, the tool applies stricter filtering:
1. A `.py` file containing `class Tools:`, `class Filter:`, `class Pipe:`, or `class Action:`
2. A docstring with `title:`, `description:`, and **`openwebui_id:`** metadata
3. Filename must not end with `_cn`

### Other Public GitHub Repositories

For other repositories:
1. A `.py` file containing `class Tools:`, `class Filter:`, `class Pipe:`, or `class Action:`
2. A docstring with `title:` and `description:` fields

## Configuration (Valves)

| Parameter | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `SKIP_KEYWORDS` | `test,verify,example,template,mock` | Comma-separated keywords to skip |
| `TIMEOUT` | `20` | Request timeout in seconds |

## Selection Dialog Timeout

The plugin selection dialog has a default timeout of **2 minutes (120 seconds)**, allowing sufficient time for users to:
- Read and review the plugin list
- Check or uncheck the plugins they want
- Handle network delays

## Support

⭐ If this plugin has been useful, a star on [OpenWebUI Extensions](https://github.com/Fu-Jie/openwebui-extensions) is a big motivation for me. Thank you for the support.
