Plugin Installation Script
This is pure PHP Script, nothing fancy, we usually just call DB Queries in it. e.g
1
​
2
//Creating Table for anncoument if not exists
3
function install_global_announcement()
4
{
5
	global $db;
6
	$db->Execute(
7
	'CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS '.tbl("global_announcement").' (
8
	  `announcement` text NOT NULL
9
	) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;;'
10
	);
11
	
12
	//inserting new announcment
13
	$db->Execute("INSERT INTO  ".tbl('global_announcement')." (announcement) VALUES ('')");
14
}

//This will first check if plugin is installed or not, if not this function will install the plugin details
18
install_global_announcement();

Plugin Uninstall Script
1
//Function used to uninstall Plugin

        'DROP TABLE '.tbl("global_announcement").''
