Plugin Directory Audit
Audit Process
We have a simple process in place to audit the plugins in the Plugin Directory:
- On a quarterly basis we run the following script:
node ./scripts/plugin-directory-audit.js --audit - This script will flag any plugin as
inactivethat has not been updated on NPM in more than 365 days if it wasactive. - It will also flag any plugin that has not been updated on NPM in more than 365 days as
archivedif it wasinactive. - For any plugin flagged as
inactiveorarchivedand has been updated on NPM in less than 365 days they will be flagged asactiveagain. - These changes will then be submitted as a PR, approved and merged.
The impact of a plugin being set to inactive means they will show in the inactive section at the bottom of the Plugin Directory. A plugin that is set to archived will not show up in the Plugin Directory at all.
tip
If your plugin moved to inactive or archived and you update it, please submit a PR to update the status to active!
