NSIS installer script for a NPVR plugin?

[McBainUK]

Anyone got an NSIS installer script I could use as a template for my Spotify plugin installer?

I enjoy writing installers less than I like then creating skins... :eek:

I find scripting much more natural then skinning.

Here is one script as an example, note that I prefer installing to Program Files for binaries so that is how this works for the Plugin and Common folders.

The source files are kept under this structure in this example

Template.msi
MusicBox
----Skin
----Plugins
----Support
----Common

Thanks. Looks like a good base.

What can I use to create a setup exe from the .msi file?

[mvallevand]

You specify the .exe name in the .msi file

OutFile "MusicBoxSetup.exe"

and then just use nsis to build it. In my setup this would be

"C:\Program Files\NSIS\makensis.exe" template.msi

Ah ha! I didn't know NSIS worked with .msi files, always used .nsi files with it.

Thanks.

Sorry for the confusion, I made a typo on that, it should have been .nsi
