XenCenter Plug-in Specification Guide
This document explains how to write a plug-in for XenCenter, the GUI for XenServer. Using the plug-in mechanism third-parties can:
-
Create menu entries in the XenCenter menus linked to an executable file or PowerShell script, including full use of the XenServer PowerShell Module (XenServerPSModule) cmdlets.
-
Cause a URL to be loaded into a tab in XenCenter.
The XenCenter plug-in mechanism is context aware, allowing you to use XenSearch to specify complicated queries. Also, plug-ins can take advantage of contextual information passed as arguments to executables or as replaceable parameters in URLs.
A XenCenter plug-in consists of the following components:
-
An XML configuration file.
-
A resource DLL for each supported locale. Currently XenCenter exists in an English version only.
-
The application and any resources it requires.
Put these components of a plug-in in a subdirectory of the XenCenter installation
directory. For example, a default installation of XenCenter requires that a plug-in
reside in C:\Program Files (x86)\XenServer\XenCenter\Plugins\<organization_name>\<plug-in_name>
XenCenter loads all valid plug-ins found in subdirectories of the plug-ins directory when it starts:
-
The plug-in name (<plug-in_name>) must be the same as the directory in which it is placed.
-
The resource DLL and the XML configuration file must follow these naming conventions:
<plug-in_name>.resources.dll<plug-in_name>.xcplugin.xml
For example, if your organization is called Citrix and you write a plug-in called
Example which runs a batch file called do_something.bat, the following files must exist:
C:\Program Files (x86)\XenServer\XenCenter\Plugins\Citrix\Example\Example.resources.dllC:\Program Files (x86)\XenServer\XenCenter\Plugins\Citrix\Example\example.xcplugin.xmlC:\Program Files (x86)\XenServer\XenCenter\Plugins\Citrix\Example\do_something.bat
These paths assume that you use the default XenCenter installation directory.
