At the beginning at the script there should be a part that define the Extension's Attribute (See Extension File Structure).
// @api = 1.0
// @id = ch.banana.apps.example.docfilepath
// @description = Hello world
// @task = app.command
// @doctype = nodocument
// @publisher = Banana.ch SA
// @pubdate = 2015-05-12
// @inputdatasource = none
// @timeout = -1
The attribute is a commented text line
- Start with //
- Followed by the attribute that start with @
- Followed by the " = " and the value
