5.2 Addons

From Gramps

This page list Third-party Addons written by users and developers to work only with Gramps version 5.2.

Please use carefully on data that is backed up.
Help make these Third-party Addons better by reporting any comments or problems to the author, or issues and Feature requests to the bug tracker
Unless otherwise stated on this page, you can download these plugin by following these instructions. An Addons Offline Manual is available for review.
Please note that some Addons have prerequisites that need to be installed before they can be used.
These Third-party Addons unless stated are not officially part of Gramps.
This Addon/Plugin system is controlled by the Addon Manager and Plugin Manager.

Gramps comes with a core set of plugins which provide all of the critical features.

However, you can extend this functionality with additional Third-party Addons. These addons provide reports, filters, View modes, Gramplets, and more.

From Gramps Addon Manager...> Scheduled update checks section, you can check for available extra (or updated) addons and select which to download. Then, they will be retrieved from the internet from the Gramps-Project file server and installed locally on your computer.

Once installed, an addon is found in the same place as a built-in feature of the same Type. That is, Tool addons become new menu items on the Tools menu... while addon Gramplets become new choices in the appropriate Category View sidebar, bottombar or Dashboard options.

Installed addons can be enabled or disabled via the Plugin Manager.

Can not find it?

The Plugin Manager and Preferences are good places to search when a feature is being elusive.

Addons are not typically cross-referenced in the wiki and might not be where you would expect in the interface.

What you recalled as a Report might actually be a Quick View... and those are found in entirely different menus. Or you might have installed an Addon for a different machine or in another version of Gramps.

So looking through the addons available for download and among those installed can help you rediscover the feature.


Installing Addons in Gramps

Fig. .1 "Addon Manager..." window showing default "Settings..." for Gramps 5.2

You can have Gramps manage the process of checking and downloading Addon updates by changing your settings to match the highlighted section in the screenshot to the right or read the following.

    1. New and updated addons - checks for all new and updated addons (This is the recommended setting)
  7. Change the Do not ask about previously notified addons checkbox to:
    1. Unchecked as it means that new/updated addons are always shown to you (This is the recommended setting)
  8. If needed you can verify that in the Project's tab > Where to check option has the correct URL. To locate the list of addons for your current language and version, it should be set to:
    https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gramps-project/addons/master/gramps52 if not; select the Restore project defaults button. (Also see the Discourse forum discussion for the URL of the 5.2 beta repository of Isotammi addons.)

Manually installed Addons

A few addons have to be installed manually. Some are scripts and need to be installed as described in the documentation provided with that addon. Some are still in the exploratory stage and have not yet been published to the list used by the Addon Manager.

Addons in the exploratory stages tend to be initially posted to the GitHub Gramps-Project repositories and have to be manually installed. Be certain to backup your Tree before installing anything. There is a potential for data loss with such preliminary versions.

  1. Download the compressed file. (Click on a download link from the list of Addons below; or for unpublished exploratory addons, select the Download ZIP option from the <> Code button's menu in their GitHub repository)
  2. Open the compressed file ( *.ZIP ; *.gz ; *.tgz / etc ...using 7-ZIP) and extract the contents to in your Gramps User Directory, in the gramps52/plugins folder.
  3. After manually installing any addons, it may be necessary to restart Gramps to register plug-ins again.

The ZipInstall addon from the Isotammi project of the Finland Genealogical Society can simplify the install of a downloaded ZIP (or a .tgz) compressed archive from GitHub.

Addon/Plugin Errors

Any addons/plugins which failed to load can be identified in the Help > Plugin Manager. View the Status column and double-click on any entry that shows an error. Some may rely on prerequisite modules that need to be installed.
You can report any errors to the plugin contact.
