+Hooks prefixed by `action:api` also give access the original **express** [Request](http://expressjs.com/en/api.html#req) and [Response](http://expressjs.com/en/api.html#res):
+
+```js
+async function register ({
+ registerHook,
+ peertubeHelpers: { logger }
+}) {
+ registerHook({
+ target: 'action:api.video.updated',
+ handler: ({ req, res }) => logger.debug('original request parameters', { params: req.params })
+ })
+}
+```
+
On client side, these hooks are registered by the `clientScripts` files defined in `package.json`.
All client scripts have scopes so PeerTube client only loads scripts it needs:
type: 'input',
// type: 'input' | 'input-checkbox' | 'input-password' | 'input-textarea' | 'markdown-text' | 'markdown-enhanced' | 'select' | 'html'
+ // If type: 'select', give the select available options
+ options: [
+ { label: 'Label 1', value: 'value1' },
+ { label: 'Label 2', value: 'value2' }
+ ],
+
+ // If type: 'html', set the HTML that will be injected in the page
+ html: '<strong class="...">Hello</strong><br /><br />'
+
// Optional
descriptionHTML: 'The purpose of this field is...',
result['admin-name]
settingsManager.onSettingsChange(settings => {
- settings['admin-name])
+ settings['admin-name']
})
}
```
#### Update video constants
-You can add/delete video categories, licences or languages using the appropriate managers:
+You can add/delete video categories, licences or languages using the appropriate constant managers:
```js
-function register (...) {
- videoLanguageManager.addLanguage('al_bhed', 'Al Bhed')
- videoLanguageManager.deleteLanguage('fr')
+function register ({
+ videoLanguageManager,
+ videoCategoryManager,
+ videoLicenceManager,
+ videoPrivacyManager,
+ playlistPrivacyManager
+}) {
+ videoLanguageManager.addConstant('al_bhed', 'Al Bhed')
+ videoLanguageManager.deleteConstant('fr')
- videoCategoryManager.addCategory(42, 'Best category')
- videoCategoryManager.deleteCategory(1) // Music
+ videoCategoryManager.addConstant(42, 'Best category')
+ videoCategoryManager.deleteConstant(1) // Music
+ videoCategoryManager.resetConstants() // Reset to initial categories
+ videoCategoryManager.getConstants() // Retrieve all category constants
- videoLicenceManager.addLicence(42, 'Best licence')
- videoLicenceManager.deleteLicence(7) // Public domain
+ videoLicenceManager.addConstant(42, 'Best licence')
+ videoLicenceManager.deleteConstant(7) // Public domain
- videoPrivacyManager.deletePrivacy(2) // Remove Unlisted video privacy
- playlistPrivacyManager.deletePlaylistPrivacy(3) // Remove Private video playlist privacy
+ videoPrivacyManager.deleteConstant(2) // Remove Unlisted video privacy
+ playlistPrivacyManager.deleteConstant(3) // Remove Private video playlist privacy
}
```
* Or `/plugins/:pluginName/router/ping`
+#### Add custom WebSocket handlers
+
+You can create custom WebSocket servers (like [ws](https://github.com/websockets/ws) for example) using `registerWebSocketRoute`:
+
+```js
+function register ({
+ registerWebSocketRoute,
+ peertubeHelpers
+}) {
+ const wss = new WebSocketServer({ noServer: true })
+
+ wss.on('connection', function connection(ws) {
+ peertubeHelpers.logger.info('WebSocket connected!')
+
+ setInterval(() => {
+ ws.send('WebSocket message sent by server');
+ }, 1000)
+ })
+
+ registerWebSocketRoute({
+ route: '/my-websocket-route',
+
+ handler: (request, socket, head) => {
+ wss.handleUpgrade(request, socket, head, ws => {
+ wss.emit('connection', ws, request)
+ })
+ }
+ })
+}
+```
+
+The `my-websocket-route` route can be accessed using:
+ * `/plugins/:pluginName/:pluginVersion/ws/my-websocket-route`
+ * Or `/plugins/:pluginName/ws/my-websocket-route`
+
#### Add external auth methods
If you want to add a classic username/email and password auth method (like [LDAP](https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/official-plugins/-/tree/master/peertube-plugin-auth-ldap) for example):
### Client API (themes & plugins)
-#### Plugin static route
+#### Get plugin static and router routes
To get your plugin static route:
}
```
+And to get your plugin router route, use `peertubeHelpers.getBaseRouterRoute()`:
+
+```js
+function register (...) {
+ registerHook({
+ target: 'action:video-watch.video.loaded',
+ handler: ({ video }) => {
+ fetch(peertubeHelpers.getBaseRouterRoute() + '/my/plugin/api', {
+ method: 'GET',
+ headers: peertubeHelpers.getAuthHeader()
+ }).then(res => res.json())
+ .then(data => console.log('Hi %s.', data))
+ }
+ })
+}
+```
+
+
#### Notifier
To notify the user with the PeerTube ToastModule:
}
```
-#### Plugin router route
-
-**PeerTube >= 3.3**
-
-To get your plugin router route, you can use `peertubeHelpers.getBaseRouterRoute()`:
-
-```js
-function register (...) {
- registerHook({
- target: 'action:video-watch.video.loaded',
- handler: ({ video }) => {
- fetch(peertubeHelpers.getBaseRouterRoute() + '/my/plugin/api', {
- method: 'GET',
- headers: peertubeHelpers.getAuthHeader()
- }).then(res => res.json())
- .then(data => console.log('Hi %s.', data))
- }
- })
-}
-```
-
#### Custom Modal
To show a custom modal:
name: 'my-field-name,
label: 'My added field',
descriptionHTML: 'Optional description',
+
+ // type: 'input' | 'input-checkbox' | 'input-password' | 'input-textarea' | 'markdown-text' | 'markdown-enhanced' | 'select' | 'html'
+ // /!\ 'input-checkbox' could send "false" and "true" strings instead of boolean
type: 'input-textarea',
+
default: '',
+
// Optional, to hide a field depending on the current form state
// liveVideo is in the options object when the user is creating/updating a live
// videoToUpdate is in the options object when the user is updating a video
hidden: ({ formValues, videoToUpdate, liveVideo }) => {
return formValues.pluginData['other-field'] === 'toto'
+ },
+
+ // Optional, to display an error depending on the form state
+ error: ({ formValues, value }) => {
+ if (formValues['privacy'] !== 1 && formValues['privacy'] !== 2) return { error: false }
+ if (value === true) return { error: false }
+
+ return { error: true, text: 'Should be enabled' }
}
}
+ const videoFormOptions = {
+ // Optional, to choose to put your setting in a specific tab in video form
+ // type: 'main' | 'plugin-settings'
+ tab: 'main'
+ }
+
for (const type of [ 'upload', 'import-url', 'import-torrent', 'update', 'go-live' ]) {
- registerVideoField(commonOptions, { type })
+ registerVideoField(commonOptions, { type, ...videoFormOptions })
}
}
```
})
}
```
+#### Plugin selector on HTML elements
+
+PeerTube provides some selectors (using `id` HTML attribute) on important blocks so plugins can easily change their style.
+
+For example `#plugin-selector-login-form` could be used to hide the login form.
+
+See the complete list on https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-plugins
#### HTML placeholder elements
Left menu links can be filtered (add/remove a section or add/remove links) using the `filter:left-menu.links.create.result` client hook.
+#### Create client page
+
+To create a client page, register a new client route:
+
+```js
+function register ({ registerClientRoute }) {
+ registerClientRoute({
+ route: 'my-super/route',
+ onMount: ({ rootEl }) => {
+ rootEl.innerHTML = 'hello'
+ }
+ })
+}
+```
+
### Publishing
PeerTube plugins and themes should be published on [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/) so that PeerTube indexes take into account your plugin (after ~ 1 day). An official plugin index is available on [packages.joinpeertube.org](https://packages.joinpeertube.org/api/v1/plugins), with no interface to present packages.
+> The official plugin index source code is available at https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/plugin-index
+
## Write a plugin/theme
Steps:
### Write code
Now you can register hooks or settings, write CSS and add static directories to your plugin or your theme :)
+It's up to you to check the code you write will be compatible with the PeerTube NodeJS version, and will be supported by web browsers.
+
+**JavaScript**
-**Caution:** It's up to you to check the code you write will be compatible with the PeerTube NodeJS version,
-and will be supported by web browsers.
If you want to write modern JavaScript, please use a transpiler like [Babel](https://babeljs.io/).
+**Typescript**
+
+The easiest way to use __Typescript__ for both front-end and backend code is to clone [peertube-plugin-quickstart-typescript](https://github.com/JohnXLivingston/peertube-plugin-quickstart-typescript/) (also available on [framagit](https://framagit.org/Livingston/peertube-plugin-quickstart-typescript/)) instead of `peertube-plugin-quickstart`.
+Please read carefully the [README file](https://github.com/JohnXLivingston/peertube-plugin-quickstart-typescript/blob/main/README.md), as there are some other differences with `peertube-plugin-quickstart` (using SCSS instead of CSS, linting rules, ...).
+
+If you don't want to use `peertube-plugin-quickstart-typescript`, you can also manually add a dev dependency to __Peertube__ types:
+
+```
+npm install --save-dev @peertube/peertube-types
+```
+
+This package exposes *server* definition files by default:
+```ts
+import { RegisterServerOptions } from '@peertube/peertube-types'
+
+export async function register ({ registerHook }: RegisterServerOptions) {
+ registerHook({
+ target: 'action:application.listening',
+ handler: () => displayHelloWorld()
+ })
+}
+```
+
+But it also exposes client types and various models used in __PeerTube__:
+```ts
+import { Video } from '@peertube/peertube-types';
+import { RegisterClientOptions } from '@peertube/peertube-types/client';
+
+function register({ registerHook, peertubeHelpers }: RegisterClientOptions) {
+ registerHook({
+ target: 'action:admin-plugin-settings.init',
+ handler: ({ npmName }: { npmName: string }) => {
+ if ('peertube-plugin-transcription' !== npmName) {
+ return;
+ }
+ },
+ });
+
+ registerHook({
+ target: 'action:video-watch.video.loaded',
+ handler: ({ video }: { video: Video }) => {
+ fetch(`${peertubeHelpers.getBaseRouterRoute()}/videos/${video.uuid}/captions`, {
+ method: 'PUT',
+ headers: peertubeHelpers.getAuthHeader(),
+ }).then((res) => res.json())
+ .then((data) => console.log('Hi %s.', data));
+ },
+ });
+}
+
+export { register };
+```
+
### Add translations
If you want to translate strings of your plugin (like labels of your registered settings), create a file and add it to `package.json`:
### Test your plugin/theme
+PeerTube dev server (ran with `npm run dev` on `localhost:3000`) can't inject plugin CSS.
+It's the reason why we don't use the dev mode but build PeerTube instead.
+
You'll need to have a local PeerTube instance:
* Follow the [dev prerequisites](https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/develop/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md#prerequisites)
(to clone the repository, install dependencies and prepare the database)
- * Build PeerTube (`--light` to only build the english language):
+ * Build PeerTube:
```
-$ npm run build -- --light
+$ npm run build
```
* Build the CLI:
* Run PeerTube (you can access to your instance on http://localhost:9000):
```
-$ NODE_ENV=test npm start
+$ NODE_ENV=dev npm start
```
* Register the instance via the CLI:
Every time you want to publish another version of your plugin/theme, just update the `version` key from the `package.json`
and republish it on NPM. Remember that the PeerTube index will take into account your new plugin/theme version after ~24 hours.
+> If you need to force your plugin update on a specific __PeerTube__ instance, you may update the latest available version manually:
+> ```sql
+> UPDATE "plugin" SET "latestVersion" = 'X.X.X' WHERE "plugin"."name" = 'plugin-shortname';
+> ```
+> You'll then be able to click the __Update plugin__ button on the plugin list.
+
### Unpublish
If for a particular reason you don't want to maintain your plugin/theme anymore
