Hi devs,
I’ve made a first attempt at adding an option to g.extension that lets users point to an alternative add-on server on Windows. You can see the PR (draft) here: g.extension: support alternative addon servers for MS-Windows users by ecodiv · Pull Request #7383 · OSGeo/grass · GitHub
It does work for me to install addons from my server (https://ecodiv.earth/share). Beyond code quality, I’d especially appreciate feedback on the overall approach. In particular, does it make sense to let users set the server URL through an environment variable via g.gisenv? And is this direction worth pursuing further?
Cheers,
Paulo
