Description

@AndrewBelt

The Repair team is the first VCV Community team to launch. The goal is simple: For each open-source plugin in the Plugin Manager, help the developer by sending a pull request that makes it build against the latest master branch of Rack. If you are not quite familiar with GitHub and git, the procedure is the following.

  • Make sure to git checkout master and git pull the latest Rack source code, and build it.
  • Pick your favorite plugin and click Fork on its GitHub page.
  • git clone the forked repo in your plugins/ folder.
  • Inspect the code, and apply the changes mentioned in the Plugin API Updates Thread
  • Update the form of the Makefile to follow the Template Makefile, including the RACK_DIR which will be useful later.
  • Try building it with make -j$(nproc). If you changed everything correctly and it finally builds, make a commit with a message like "Updated to Rack 0.6 API", and git push.
  • On your GitHub fork, click "Create Pull Request", and submit it back to the plugin developer.
  • After the plugin developer accepts your pull request, you may delete your personal repository.
