With all the variety in add-ons i'm not sure it would be feasible to standardize a simple set of functions, but i'm not the best person to evaluate this.
In any case, i think that the primary site for discussing this shouldn't be here. You probably should post on the forum to gauge interest and feasibility from add-on developers.

I would just enable the navigation of an adoon like Yatse did. In Yatse you can navigate the current content of an addon. Nothing more - everything else would complicate things.

@bromix what do you mean by navigation? Using the d-pad on add-ons? That's possible (if there are any issues with this it might have something to do with threads and TCP on Kodi, and the solution is to disable TCP in Kore).

Here is an example from the YouTube app. It seems to fetch the list items

Instead of simply showing installed add-ons and taking you to the add-on's screen, it would be great if we could actually control the add-on from Kore.

That would be really nice.

I've been using Yatse to invoke add-ons and Kore for everything else. I'm considering implementing this. Has there been any discussion elsewhere?
Beyond the Addons.GetAddons
call, the protocol seems to be just directory/file traversal with the special plugin://
URI scheme. It may be fairly easy to adapt the Files browser to this.

Yes, i believe you're right. With the addonid
returned by Addons.GetAddonDetails
we should be able to browse it using Files.GetDirectory
with the directory being plugin://addonid
.
2 things to consider:
- I think this should be started from the Addon details screen, not from the Files section (going into that section to browse addons doesn't make much sense). Ideally, the FAB on the details screen would be a + sign that would reveal the Start (existing) and Browse options when touched. As a simpler alternative to implement, a new icon could be included on the icon row that starts the browsing. The icon should be something from Google's material icons (https://design.google.com/icons/), svg in white 24dp. Can't seem to find something totally appropriate... maybe the "open in browser".
- For addon navigation the logic in
FileListFragment
probably works, and should be reused, though it needs to be tweaked, as the path is somewhat different, and the back actions can't go all the way to the top (the fragment expects to be able to get back to "Sources", which doesn't make sense in this context). Haven't looked at it in detail though.

Thanks for your interest and help. UI-wise, I thought perhaps a tab like on TV Overview/Episodes might be suitable. I haven't seen the action button being used for accessing more navigation elsewhere. I would have thought it should be for actions like play/launch/enqueue, rather than opening a browse fragment.
You're right that the root/parent thing needs a little adjustment. The Sources stuff won't be invoked if the ".." entry is not it added, so the changes will be quite small.

Without doing anything special, my plugins work in Yatse where I can choose which item to play. In Kore this is indeed still not possible and without looking at the screen, I cannot start any item. So support for this is greatly welcomed.
from kore.
Would you be able to give me an example plugin? I don't ask that to question what you said, just to save time. I don't use many plugins, but I've been able to play items straight from the menu in Kore, so I'm guessing that plugins differ in some way.
Thanks
