Hi,
I developped a plugin that takes datasets as inputs.
I uploaded it via the 'Advanced' option i.e. by uploading a zip.
I can see my plugin in the plugin list but it does not appear when I click on a dataset in the Flow view.
And when I go to the Installed Plugin tab the right column is empty (there should be something like (Recipe: take a dataset and do...).
Do you have any idea what might be causing this ?
Thank you for your help !

Does your plugin appear in the "New recipe" menu ?
* If it does, then to make it also appear in the dataset actions, you need to add in the recipe.json file a line like:
"selectableFromDataset": "main",
Where "main" must be replaced by the name of the input role in which the "current" dataset will go
* If it does not, then it means your plugin does not work properly, probably because of a parsing error somewhere. In the dev section, do you see warnings about components not loaded ? You can also check the backend.log file for errors loading that plugin -
Thanks for your answer !
The recipe.json had the "selectable from dataset" line and the plugin worked properly.
The issue was that the folder in which I had the recipe.py and recipe.json files (let's call it the 'recipe folder') had the same name as another 'recipe folder' from another plugin...
I changed the name and solved the issue.
