OpenRGB Unraid plugin

This repository contains the Unraid plugin and Slackware packaging files for OpenRGB. It does not contain a copy or fork of the OpenRGB source code.

How the package is built

GitHub Actions checks the upstream OpenRGB release feed every six hours. When it finds a stable release that this repository has not packaged, the workflow:

1. Selects that exact OpenRGB release from Codeberg.
2. Downloads the exact x86_64 AppImage from that upstream release.
3. Creates a generic Unraid Slackware package.
4. Creates a GitHub release with the package, checksum, and openrgb.plg.

The package is a user-space application package. It does not contain a kernel module, so the package name does not include an Unraid kernel version.

Install on Unraid

Install the latest plugin with:

https://github.com/unraid/unraid-openrgb/releases/latest/download/openrgb.plg

The plugin installs the OpenRGB runtime, command wrapper, udev rule, and the post-install udev reload. It does not install SSH files or replace system libraries.

Run a build manually

Use the Check for OpenRGB updates workflow and enter an upstream tag such as release_1.0. Leave the field empty to use the newest stable release. A prerelease tag such as release_candidate_1.0rc3.1 creates a separate GitHub prerelease and applies the MSI Z890 Carbon WiFi mapping patch.

The workflow is the supported release path. For a local Linux build, provide an OpenRGB source checkout explicitly:

packaging/slackware/build-package.sh \
  --source-root /path/to/OpenRGB \
  --build-appimage \
  --version 1.0

The package build and verifier documentation is in packaging/slackware/README.md.
