UMIL does not perform file edits, but only basic database actions that would be required to install a MOD.
Most modifications will be distributed with the UMIL package, you would need to simply follow the install instructions from within the install XML (MODX) file for the MOD.
If the developer is downloading UMIL from the downloads page, he will find a file called “install.xml” in the package. This file needs to be opened in a browser.
This file contains instructions for installing UMIL. Installation of UMIL is a simple process of draging the 'umil' directory from within the UMIL root directory to your phpBB directory and uploading to the server.
When a user downloads a UMIL enabled Modification, they can run the installation script (known as a UMIF - Unified MOD Install File) provided with the MOD.
To run a UMIF, browse to the file in the browser as directed by the MOD install instructions. UMI Files can be ran in much the same way phpBB3 is installed onto the server. UMIFs provide a nice user interface that enables the user to easily install, update and uninstall MODs.
UMIL makes installing modules, permissions, database tables, columns, configs, making SQL changes, purging caches, and other database operations an easy and pain-free task.
The user would simply run the installation script provided and the UMI Library would determine what actions to perform. Where MODs would normally use the complicated and detailed DIY-Instructions within MODX or their own installation script, they would now use the UMI Library to perform these tasks automatically.
