Home < Slicer3:Extensions:DirectoriesTemporaryDirectory is user-defined via Application Settings (defaults to /Users/$USER/Slicer3$USER on a Mac)
ExtensionsInstallPath is user-defined via Application Settings, defaults to value of TemporaryDirectory if not set by user
- Zip files downloaded to TemporaryDirectory
- Unarchive to TemporaryDirectory/extension before moving to final install path
- Extensions installed to Slicer3 SVN Revision-based subdirectory of ExtensionsInstallPath (default: /Users/$USER/Slicer3$USER/@SVN@)
- Slicer3 "default" extensions in Slicer3_INSTALL_MODULES_LIB_DIR
Extension manager will store to ExtensionsInstallPath/@SVN@ Where @SVN@ is the svn revision number of the repository from Slicer3Version.txt for the build.
This path is appended to PotentialModulePaths.
On startup, Slicer3 will search all potential module paths, substituting @SVN@ with the value recorded in Slicer3Version.txt
TODO:
Check all subdirectories of the ExtensionsInstallPath and see if a previous version had downloaded an extension and if it's not available in the current version, then query the user to download it.
