Plugins

Two kinds of plugins run inside Joystick Diagrams. Parser plugins (below) read your game and tool config files and pull in all your bindings. Output plugins run after export to push your diagrams wherever you need them. OpenKneeboard is the first bundled example. Both types can also be installed from the community.

Parser Plugins (Bundled)

Read config files from these games and tools. Shipped with every release, can't be uninstalled.

DCS World

Official

Parses DCS World user profile input bindings. Supports all aircraft, native modifiers, and per-aircraft profile detection.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020

Official

Reads MSFS controller binding profiles. Buttons, axes, and hats from all your devices.

Star Citizen

Official

Reads ActionMaps.XML from Star Citizen. Full modifier support.

IL-2 Sturmovik: Great Battles

Official

Parses IL-2 Sturmovik input config files. All aircraft profiles, all bindings.

Joystick Gremlin

Official

Joystick Gremlin is a remapping tool, not a game. It operates at the device level, so bindings exist regardless of which game is running. Importing your JG profiles alongside game profiles gives you a complete, unified picture of what every button does.

Output Plugins (Bundled)

Output plugins run after every export and receive the exported file plus the full binding model. They can push diagrams to other applications, extract binding data in other formats, or notify external services. One output plugin ships with the app.

Community Plugins

The plugin API is open and documented. You can install community-written parser plugins (new game support) and output plugins (alternate integrations) directly from the Settings page. Installed plugins survive app updates.
