Trying to get started with generator, but a bit confused. I've got the sample plugins running, read through other samples, searched forums, but I'm missing a basic developer guide on what is the best way to do stuff.
So general questions about Generator development:
- Is there any documentation beyond the GitHub-site (and here) that I'm missing?
- Any versioning issues? It was originally launched with PS CC 14.1, but has there been "evolution"? I.e. are there things that works only in newer releases of CC (and hence the internal Node.js) or are all versions equal?
- Any known issues, don't do's, mines I should be aware of?
- How should you use temporary files? When the plugin would be run in the internal Node.js, where would that actually be? Can you just write temporary stuff there where ever your files happen to be lying ('./tmp/foo*')?
- How do you package the plugin as a zxp/something for distribution?
- Can you start the generator plugin from a panel? So can you put an on/off switch to your panel or do you have to tell users to go to File->Generator->Your plugin?
Lots of questions and any answers are appreciated
