How to Add Private Repositories

1. Go to GitHub Personal Access Tokens.
2. Generate a new token.
3. Give the token a name and select the repositories you want to access.
4. Under permissions, enable Contents and Metadata.
5. Generate the token and copy it.
6. Paste it into the github_api_key field located at: .config/SCP Secret Laboratory/LabAPI/plugins/{port}/DeltaPatch/config.yml
7. Restart your server — your plugins will now automatically update to the latest release.

What if you’re using an organization?

Change the resource owner from your personal account to the organization before generating the token.

For Developers

Adding Compatibility

• Adding DeltaPatch compatibility is easy.
• Create a new public string value in your main file where the Plugin interface is used:

  public string githubRepo = "CHANGE THIS TO YOUR GITHUB REPOSITORY"; // example: KenleyundLeon/DeltaPatch

• Example image:
  

Adding Compatibility with AssemblyMetadata

• You can now add an AssemblyMetadata attribute in your AssemblyInfo.cs and recompile your plugin.
• Your metadata should follow this format: [assembly: AssemblyMetadata("RepositoryUrl", "https://github.com/YOUR-GITHUB-HERE")]
• Example image:
• This also works for [assembly: AssemblyCompany("https://github.com/YOUR-GITHUB-HERE")]

Adding Custom Dependencies

• It's easy: just put a dependencies.zip file in your release containing all required dependencies.
• Make sure all .dll files are in the main zip folder, not inside any subfolders.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Debug logs say I'm in a timeout — what should I do?

• You should raise the update timer in the config by 1–2 minutes.
• You can also add a GitHub Personal Access Token, which helps avoid GitHub timeout issues.

Some plugins aren't updating — what's the issue?

• Try installing the latest release.
  AssemblyMetadata checks (which some plugins use) were only added in version 2.0.

GitHub issues don’t work / I can’t add a tag — how can I contact you?

• You can reach me (Kenley M.) via Discord: m_kenley
  or via email: kenley@froback.de

Can I pay you to make a plugin for my server?

• Of course — just contact me!
  However, I only code for LabAPI, not for Exiled.
