Publishing skins

How to add your skin to the Meters on Demand database.

Requirements:

Your skin must have a repository on GitHub

• See Creating skins for a full guide on creating and uploading a skin to GitHub

The repository must have the right topic for mond to find it

• #rainmeter, #rainmeter-skin and #rmskin are valid topics

The repository must have a release with an .rmskin package in it

• You can use the package command to automatically create an .rmskin package for your skin.

Adding the #rainmeter-skin topic

See Classifying your repository with topics to learn how to modify your GitHub repositorys topics.

Creating a release

See Managing releases in a repository to learn how to make and manage releases.

Remember, you can use mond package <your skin> to automatically create the .rmskin package. Packages are moved to the desktop by default. You may also use the Rainmeter skin packager to manually create the .rmskin package.

Example of a valid release:

All done!

Once you've made your repo, added a valid topic and made a release, your skin will be added to the Meters on Demand database in about 12 hours (the API scrapes GitHub once a day).

See the optional steps on the next page if you want to customize or speed up the process of API discovery.
