Check for existance of another addon
 

Hello,

is there an "easy" way to check whether a particular another addon is loaded in my addon? I want to implement a check to keep things save in case of both addons are loaded.

Thank you for your help and best regards

Each addon runs through event_addon_loaded.
Add the other addon to your addons txt file at ##OptionalDependsOn: OtherAddon

In your callback function of event_addon_loaded you'll be able to check the parameter addonName == Other Addon finally.

Or simply check the other addons code if it got a global variable defined.
Inside your code check if this var exists like this:
If otherAddonVar and otherAddonVar.functionName then
--other addon is loaded
End

Thank you, that solved it :-)

Or :


If addOn_variable_GLOBAL then
//your code
end
