Hi

I want to update some outdated plugin and probably create new plugin.

I downloaded the code and run it successfully but the amount of codes is huge. is there any documentation or guide to help me what I have to do?

Sadly there isn't much but you can place your questions here.

Hi,

Can you briefly explain what is it the step to add a new Plugin ? Where I have to started first ?

or

can you give me an example plugin which included most of the JDownloader features such as Login, config page, crawling and captcha ? It would be brilliant if you give me order of classes I have to look.

Again depends for which website you're planning to create a plugin.
Out of the blue I'd say instagram.com because there is a crawler plugin, host plugin and settings but the code-quality and complexity really varies over the different plugins ...

@armindvd: You can contact me via support@jdownloader.org for deeper helper/guiding

jd.plugins.PluginForDecrypt (Crawler) are processing links and may return one or multiple other links. Crawler plugins are used to process galleries/sets of links and/or find/return multiple qualities. the most important method to override here is decryptIt

jd.plugins.PluginForHost (Hoster) are handling the actual download of a single link! They contain logic for account/link check and free/premium(with account) downloading.

You basically create new class in either jd.plugins.decrypter or jd.plugins.hoster and extend either PluginForDecrypt or PluginForHost. Take a look at any of the existing plugins!
And just ask Don't ask to ask.

We can provide better help/guiding when you tell us what kind of site/plugin you want to fix/write. Maybe provide example link?
