Manage Plugin
To manage plugins, you need to have downloaded the LUA
programming language, available at Lua.
Editing of the LUA code must be done only by a qualified developer
with knowledge of the programming language. Click on in the MBG interface for documentation for
a LUA developer.
The Manage Plugin page contains two sections:
- Sample plugins
- Installed plugins
Sample Plugins
The sample plugins are samples to help a LUA developer get started. There are a few default sample plugins to get you started. These plugins may not be used directly in a pipeline, it must be downloaded, modified, and uploaded back as an installed plugin to be used.
Download Sample Plugin
To download a sample
plugin, click against the plugin you want to download. After you have downloaded
a plugin, you will need to upload the plugin to be able to add it
to a pipeline. See Upload Plugin below.
Installed Plugins
Installed plugins can be added to pipelines.
Upload Plugin
To upload a plugin, do the following:
- Click
under the Install Plugins table in the Manage Plugin page.

box.Note: The valid characters for the name are letters of the alphabet (uppercase and lowercase), underscore (_), period (.), and the digits (0 to 9).
- Browse and upload the plugin.
- Click Install. The uploaded plugin is now available in
the Installed plugin table.Note: When the plugin is uploaded, Unix line-endings are expected, as MSL is a Linux platform.
