# Example on Plugin Development
|
|
|
|
## File Structure
|
|
```
|
|
- root
|
|
- flaschengeist_example
|
|
- __init__.py
|
|
- plugin.py
|
|
[- migrations]
|
|
- setup.cfg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In a minimal example, you would only need two python source files and
|
|
your setup configuration.
|
|
If you also use custom database tables, you would also need a directory
|
|
containing your _alembic_-migration files.
|
|
|
|
## Source code
|
|
Code is seperated in two locations, the meta data of your plugin goes into the `__init__.py` and all logic goes into the `plugin.py`, of cause you could add more files, but make sure to not depend on some external packages in the `__init__.py`.
|
|
|
|
### Project data / setuptools
|
|
For **Flaschengeist** to find your plugin, you have to
|
|
install it corretly, especially the entry points have to be set.
|
|
```ini
|
|
[metadata]
|
|
license = MIT
|
|
version = 1.0.0
|
|
name = flaschengeist-example
|
|
description = Example plugin for Flaschengeist
|
|
# ...
|
|
|
|
[options]
|
|
packages =
|
|
flaschengeist_example
|
|
install_requires =
|
|
flaschengeist == 2.0.*
|
|
|
|
[options.entry_points]
|
|
# Path to your meta data instance
|
|
flaschengeist.plugins =
|
|
example = flaschengeist_example:plugin
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Metadata
|
|
The `__init__.py` contains the plugin meta data.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# __init__.py
|
|
from flaschengeist.plugins import PluginMetadata
|
|
plugin = PluginMetadata(
|
|
id="com.example.plugin", # unique, recommend FQN
|
|
name="Example Plugin", # Human readable name
|
|
version="1.0.0", # Optional
|
|
module="flaschengeist_example.plugin.ExamplePlugin" # module and class of your plugin
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`version` is optional, if not provided the version of your distribution (set in setup.cfg) is used.
|
|
|
|
### Implementation
|
|
You plugin implementation goes into the `plugin.py`.
|
|
Here you define your Plugin class, make sure it inheritates from `flaschengeist.plugins.Plugin` or `flaschengeist.plugins.AuthPlugin` respectivly.
|
|
|
|
It will get initalized with the meta data you defined in the `__init__.py` and the configuration object.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from flaschengeist.plugins import Plugin
|
|
from flask import Blueprint
|
|
|
|
bp = Blueprint(...)
|
|
|
|
class ExamplePlugin(Plugin):
|
|
blueprint = bp
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
@bp.route("/example")
|
|
def get_example():
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
``` |
