Introduce DispatcherHelper for safe UI thread access and replace direct Dispatcher.Invoke calls across the codebase. This centralizes thread invocation logic, reduces boilerplate, and improves maintainability. Some methods are refactored for clarity and UI thread safety.
Logging when a plugin's minimum Flow Launcher version is not met
has been removed. The method now returns false without logging
any informational message.
Improved the message shown when a plugin requires a newer Flow Launcher version by adding line breaks for clarity and updating the title wording. Adjusted code to pass Environment.NewLine and modified resource strings in en.xaml to support the new format.
Throw a JsonException if deserializing plugin metadata from JSON returns null. This prevents null metadata from being used and improves error handling for invalid or corrupted plugin.json files.
Refactored the plugin minimum app version check to use Version.TryParse instead of try-catch with Version.Parse, preventing exceptions on invalid input. Improved error handling by logging parse failures as errors and version mismatches as info, making the logic clearer and more robust.
Previously, installing a plugin with an invalid or corrupted plugin.json would cause an unhandled exception. Now, deserialization errors are caught, a user-friendly error message is shown, and the exception is logged. Added a new localized error message for this scenario in en.xaml.
Introduced MinimumAppVersion property to PluginMetadata, enabling plugins to specify required Flow Launcher version. Plugin installation now checks this requirement and prompts users if unsatisfied. Minimum app version logic moved to PluginManager and applied to manifest updates. Added localized strings for user prompts. Refactored SameOrLesserPluginVersionExists to accept PluginMetadata.
Removed the `Score = -100` property from multiple result objects
in `PluginManager.cs` to simplify the code and improve clarity.
Adjusted the formatting and structure to ensure proper syntax
and maintain code consistency. This includes changes to result
objects that handle re-querying and exception handling.
Updated the log level for the plugin constructor cost message
from `LogInfo` to `LogDebug` to reduce verbosity in production
logs and make this information available primarily during
debugging sessions.
