Created attachment 111299 [details] Works for Gedit's plugins Discover has the ability to display plugins for apps, as long as their appstream metadata is set correctly. I'm attaching an image that shows it working for Gedit. If Kipi plugins got some AppStream metadata, we could do the same thing here, and show Kipi-plugins as a plugin for Digikam, Gwenview, Spectacle, and other KDE image manipulation apps.
Still valid for neon dev unstable.

This mostly needs someone to maintain kipi-plugins, there's a load of unused or obsolete plugins that should be kicked out, then the rest should get managed decline with stuff like appstream data added until it goes away in favour or purpose or other stuff.
'show Kipi-plugins as a plugin for Digikam, Gwenview, Spectacle, and other KDE image manipulation apps.' I'm pretty sure Gwenview is the only one there that can make use of kipi-plugins now
Spectacle still can.

Git commit c961ff4942f0fb041194f5f17d64818e86eccfec by Jonathan Riddell. Committed on 03/12/2019 at 16:19. Pushed by jriddell into branch 'master'. add appstream file M +2 -0 CMakeLists.txt A +24 -0 org.kde.kipi_plugins.metainfo.xml https://commits.kde.org/kipi-plugins/c961ff4942f0fb041194f5f17d64818e86eccfec
also updated gwenview to use it https://commits.kde.org/gwenview/09119995c8110ffce110ce0b35b4d4c9109c3877
however kipi-plugins is essentially unmaintained and it would be worth someone going over and checking that all the plugins actually still work
Thanks a bunch Jonathan!

Discover says "Couldn't open appstream://org.kde.kipi_plugins" after click on "Plugins" menu > "Install plugnis". Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.66.0 Qt Version: 5.13.2
Kipi hasn't gotten a release yet that includes that appstream version. Once it does, this will work.
