Marketplace¶

Find plugins, micro packs and themes for rich. This page lists what the plugin marketplace holds, and gives the command that installs each package. In a terminal, rich plugin search and rich plugin browse show the same list (In the terminal). The marketplace also has its own site: buchochelliq-labs.github.io/rs-rich-marketplace.

How to read a package¶

Which packages are rs-rich's own. A package marked ✓ Official · by rs-rich is built and published by rs-rich, from its repository. The mark comes only from the listing's tier, which only a maintainer can set, and the marketplace refuses official for a package whose repository is not rs-rich's. Every other package is someone else's: reviewed means a maintainer read its source and rebuilt the same file; community means the marketplace's checks passed and nothing more, so read its source and permissions first. A package's own name, description and authors are its author's words; "Authored by" names them in quotes when they claim to be rs-rich. The tiers say more.

Kinds. A WASM plugin runs in a sandbox with no files, network, clock or processes. A micro pack and a theme are data. A crate is native code: it is never installed by rich, so its command is the cargo add line for your own program.

Trust¶

This page only lists packages: it reads the marketplace's index.json and each listing in your browser, checks each listing's SHA-256 against the index, and sends nothing else anywhere. It does not check the index's signature. rich plugin install does: it verifies the index's minisign signature with the keys compiled into rich, then the listing's hash, then the downloaded file's size and SHA-256, before it writes anything.

Download counts and ratings come from the marketplace's stats.json, refreshed nightly. They are not part of the signed index, and rich never reads them. A rating is the 👍 and 👎 reactions on the package's GitHub discussion, and its reviews are that discussion's comments; Read or write reviews on GitHub opens it. A count shows as "—" where nothing was counted, such as a version published before counting began.

In the terminal¶

rich plugin search                          # every package: kind, tier, version, author
rich plugin search rot13                    # every word must match: id, name, description,
                                            # keywords, authors or capabilities
rich plugin search --kind theme --tier official
rich plugin info textcase                   # who publishes it, every version, permissions
rich plugin install textcase                # shows what it is and asks first
rich plugin browse                          # all of it in a selector
