/*! \page module_install_page Installing 3rd-Party Modules

There are various places in Autopsy that developers can write custom plug-in modules. This page covers how to install them.
|
|
|
|
There are two types of modules:
|
|
- Modules written in Java that are shipped in NBM (NetBeans Module) files.
|
|
- Modules written in Python that are shipped as a folder in a ZIP file.
|
|
|
|
\section module_install_nbm Installing NetBeans Modules
|
|
If you have an NBM file, then it may contain one or more Autopsy modules. To install it, use the plugin manager at "Tools", "Plugins".

|

|
|
|
|
Choose the "Downloaded" tab and then choose "Add Plugins". Browse to the NBM file. It may require you to restart Autopsy.
|
|
|
|
\section module_install_python Installing Python Modules
|
|
If you have a ZIP file with a Python module in it, then unzip the file and you should get a folder. Open the Python module library folder through Autopsy using "Tools", "Python Plugins".
|

On Windows this will be under your user directory in "AppData\Roaming\autopsy\python_modules". Copy the module folder into there and Autopsy should identify and use it next time it loads modules.
