Patchstorage LV2 Uploader

Proof of concept utility for uploading LV2 plugins to patchstorage.com.

IMPORTANT

  • For recommended plugin build workflow, see patchstorage-lv2-builder.
  • Currently, the LV2 plugins section on Patchstorage is dedicated to linux-amd64, rpi-aarch64 & patchbox-os-arm32 builds. Let us know if you would like to see support for additional targets.
  • Before uploading a plugin, ensure it wasn’t uploaded by anyone else! If the uploaded version is outdated or missing a specific build, please get in touch with the original uploader on Patchstorage.

Help Wanted

We are looking for any help with community-based efforts regarding uploading and maintaining LV2 plugins on Patchstorage, helping out with plugin build and contribution guides, and community support aspects on patchstorage.com. Reach out to us if you want to help or have any suggestions!

Installation

  • Python 3.7+
  • pip install requests click rdflib

Usage

Here are the steps to upload plugins:

  1. Clone this repository on your computer.
  2. Move plugins you want to upload to the /plugins directory. All plugins should be in their corresponding folders inside build target folder, e.g. /patchstorage-lv2-uploader/plugins/rpi-aarch64/mod-bigmuff.lv2/
  3. Run python ./uploader.py prepare all - this command will generate *.tar.gz and patchstorage.json files in the /dist directory. Some information may be missing, so you will have to modify plugins.json or licenses.json files.
  4. Check the /dist folder for the results, especially the patchstorage.json files. Make adjustments if needed.
  5. Run python ./uploader push all --username <patchstorage_username> command and follow the instructions. After uploading a plugin, please check the resulting entry on Patchstorage.
  6. If you made any changes to the plugins.json or licenses.json files, create a pull request to this repo.

TODO

  • Interactive patchstorage.json missing fields prompt during the prepare step.
