CREATE BUDDY PLUGIN

With Buddy plugins, you can enhance Manticore Search’s capabilities and accommodate certain queries that Manticore doesn’t support natively. We strongly recommend reading this article to learn the basics of working with plugins.

CREATE PLUGIN <username/package name on https://packagist.org/> TYPE 'buddy' VERSION <package version>

There is also an alias that is created specifically for use with Buddy and is easier to remember.

CREATE BUDDY PLUGIN <username/package name on https://packagist.org/> VERSION <package version>

This will install the show-hostname plugin to plugin_dir and will enable it without the need to restart the server.

Examples

CREATE PLUGIN manticoresoftware/buddy-plugin-show-hostname TYPE 'buddy' VERSION 'dev-main';

CREATE BUDDY PLUGIN manticoresoftware/buddy-plugin-show-hostname VERSION 'dev-main';
