Umbraco

Hey does anyone know what I need to use instead of `IManifestFilter` if I want to register the version and packageName of my package in v14? (I don't include any HTML, CSS or JS in my package)

I haven't really looked much at V14 yet, but I'm fairly certain HQ has communicated that this won't be possible for V14.

:large-sad-face:

IIRC it was mentioned that this could potentially be added later, but without any certainty or timeframe.

yes, can't register packages in code in 14

Yep you will need an umbraco-package.json file

And if your using an RCL it can then just get served from wwwroot RCL for App_Plugins/NiksPackage/umbraco-package.json

Anyone knows how it gets package stats for telemetry data then?

🤷‍♂️ one for <@296714509035372545> or <@818832337135206410>

We still have the `PackageManifestService` which uses `IPackageManifestReader` readers of which we have a few registered in the core:

so you could set up your own IPackageManifestReader if you wanted to

the interface isn't too big:
```public interface IPackageManifestReader
{
    Task<IEnumerable<PackageManifest>> ReadPackageManifestsAsync();
}```

So it just reads package manifests from umbraco-package.json files on the disk?

yeah, just like the old backoffice did with package.manifest files

Cool - I might do a feature request for a C# way of registering, eg. for a package that only has C# in it (like https://marketplace.umbraco.com/package/umbraco.community.imagesharpremoteimages), it doesn't make sense to require a static file containing the info.
