After Vesta 1.0 update the tool is no longer supported.

VestaCP Plugin Manager

This script adds to vesta the ability to work with plugins.
The plugins will be installed by Github repository or zip files.

Plugin manager features:

• Allows plugins to add executables to the Vesta bin directory.
• Change the VestaCP web files by adding actions and filters such as wordpress to allow plugins to interact.
  • The default menu will be hidden, and the menus will be added by the "header_menu" filter to allow plugins to add and edit items.
  • If the plugin "vestoid-theme" is installed, l-stats will be moved to the left and new options can be added with the "menu" filter.
  • Other actions will be added other points of the layout.
  • Adds the classes "Vesta" and "VestaPlugin" to assist plugins in their execution.
• Plugins can have hooks to run during their life cycle.

Installation

Dependencies:

• jq library to manipulate JSON by bash
  • Debian: sudo apt-get -y install jq
  • CentOS: sudo yum -y install jq

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jhmaverick/vestacp-plugin-manager/master/install.sh | bash -

The installer will not replace the default vesta web directory, it will apply the necessary parts using regular expressions.
Before starting, the script will backup the web directory to "/backup".

Files to be changed:

• /usr/local/vesta/web/inc/main.php
• /usr/local/vesta/web/templates/header.html
• /usr/local/vesta/web/templates/admin/panel.html
• /usr/local/vesta/web/templates/user/panel.html
• /usr/local/vesta/web/templates/admin/list_server_info.html
• /usr/local/vesta/web/templates/footer.html

You can see the changes that will be made in: reconfigure-vesta-web.sh.
This script can also be executed if any vesta update removes the changes.

To remove the changes and delete the plugin manager, run /usr/local/vesta/plugin-manager/uninstall.sh
