Ignition Extensions module installs on Gateway 8.3.4, but not available in Designer Post:

I installed the Ignition Extensions module from GitHub (link below) on an Ignition 8.3.4 Gateway.
The module installs correctly and shows as Active in the Gateway module list, with no faults or warnings.

GitHub link:

The problem is that the module does not seem to load inside the Designer.
When I open the Script Console and run:

print dir(system)

There is no system.extensions namespace.

So the module is clearly active on the Gateway, but nothing shows up in the Designer.

This module never created a system extensions namespace. It adds the functions to the relevant namespaces.
In the designer extension functions from this module are added to the following areas

system.dataset

system.util

system.project

If you're ever curious about which modules are successfully loaded in the client/designer, you can go to the diagnostics menu and open the 'about' section, which shows an accurate list of the modules on the system.
