How long does it take until my extension is updated in the marketplace?

Hi there,

Yesterday i updated my extension (GitHub - Attacler/TextToAnything-Directus: This extension allows you to generate PDFs, QRCodes and Barcodes within Directus trough TextToAnyThing API).
According to the docs this should be updated by now “The Directus Extensions Registry is updated every few hours”.
Are the docs incorrect or is there something wrong with (indexing) my extension?

Additionally, interesting to know, does the Directus extension cache it (would another instance show the updated version for instance)?

The marketplace registry does get updated every couple of hours. So I would think that your extension should certainly be updated and showing up within marketplace results now.

But if it’s not, definitely reach out to our team. We’d be happy to take a look.

One thing that does trip up a lot of extensions from being published is having proper metadata, especially the directus-extension keyword in the package.json.

See the docs.

Make sure you have something like this in your package.json:

{
  "keywords": [
    "directus",
    "directus-extension",
    "directus-custom-interface"
  ]
}

The marketplace uses these keywords to identify and categorize extensions properly.
