Usage

([ENVIRONMENT] is a placeholder for the actual environment name.)

1. Copy the file homebrew_on_menu.wps into sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/plugins.
2. Requires the WiiUPluginLoaderBackend in sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/modules.
3. Requires the RPXLoadingModule in sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/modules.
4. Requires the WUHBUtilsModule in sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/modules.
5. Requires the ContentRedirectionModule in sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/modules.
6. Requires the SDHotSwapModule in sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/modules.

Save data redirection

In order to preserve the order of homebrew apps even when you run the Wii U Menu without this plugin, this plugin will redirect the Wii U Menu save data to sd:/wiiu/homebrew_on_menu_plugin. When no save data is found on the sd card, the current save data is copied from the console, but after that it's never updated.

Buildflags

Logging

Building via make only logs errors (via OSReport). To enable logging via the LoggingModule set DEBUG to 1 or VERBOSE.

make Logs errors only (via OSReport).
make DEBUG=1 Enables information and error logging via LoggingModule.
make DEBUG=VERBOSE Enables verbose information and error logging via LoggingModule.

If the LoggingModule is not present, it'll fallback to UDP (Port 4405) and CafeOS logging.

Building using the Dockerfile

It's possible to use a docker image for building. This way you don't need anything installed on your host system.

# Build docker image (only needed once)
docker build . -t homebrew_on_menu_plugin-builder

# make 
docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/project homebrew_on_menu_plugin-builder make

# make clean
docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/project homebrew_on_menu_plugin-builder make clean

Format the code via docker

docker run --rm -v ${PWD}:/src wiiuenv/clang-format:13.0.0-2 -r ./src -i
