SimHub Plugin Deploy

Quick Start

Use this skill when the user asks to build and deploy the WinPodiums SimHub plugin.

This repo: Plugin lives in apps/plugin/WinPodiums.Plugin/. If a deploy script exists, use it; otherwise follow the manual steps below (same as [docker-dev-environment §6 Local deployment — SimHub plugin](../../docker-dev-environment/SKILL.md#6-local-deployment--simhub-plugin-host-only)).

Deploy script (if present)

If scripts/deploy-plugin.ps1 exists, from repo root (PowerShell):

.\scripts\deploy-plugin.ps1

Or: powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts/deploy-plugin.ps1

What it typically does: Builds the plugin (Release), copies the DLL (and Newtonsoft.Json.dll if present) to the SimHub install folder, prints "Deploy complete. Restart SimHub to load the plugin."

Only supported deploy path: C:\Program Files (x86)\SimHub\ (SimHub install root). Plugin DLL(s) go there; no Plugins subfolder. This repo does not support other paths. Copying to Program Files usually requires running PowerShell as Administrator.

Manual build and deploy (no script)

When the deploy script is not present, use the docker-dev-environment skill §6:

  1. Before building: Close SimHub completely (locks plugin DLLs).
  2. Build: From repo root: dotnet build apps/plugin/WinPodiums.Plugin/WinPodiums.Plugin.csproj --configuration Release (or Debug).
  3. Before deploying: Ensure SimHub is stopped so the install folder is not locked.
  4. Deploy: Copy the built DLL from apps/plugin/WinPodiums.Plugin/bin/Release/net48/ (or Debug/net48/) to C:\Program Files (x86)\SimHub\ (SimHub install root; the only deploy path this repo supports).
  5. Verify: Start SimHub and confirm the plugin appears in the plugin list.

Build only (no copy)

dotnet build apps/plugin/WinPodiums.Plugin/WinPodiums.Plugin.csproj --configuration Release

Output: apps/plugin/WinPodiums.Plugin/bin/Release/net48/WinPodiums.Plugin.dll

After deploy

  • Restart SimHub so it loads the plugin.
  • Confirm the plugin appears in SimHub's plugin list as WinPodiums.
  • Point the plugin at the API (e.g. http://localhost:8787 when the API runs in Docker).
