265## Tips
266
267### Compatibility with PeerTube
268
269Unfortunately, we don't have enough resources to provide hook compatibility between minor releases of PeerTube (for example between `1.2.x` and `1.3.x`).
270So please:
271 * Don't make assumptions and check every parameter you want to use. For example:
272
273```js
274registerHook({
275 target: 'filter:api.video.get.result',
276 handler: video => {
277 // We check the parameter exists and the name field exists too, to avoid exceptions
278 if (video && video.name) video.name += ' <3'
279
280 return video
281 }
282})
283```
284 * Don't try to require parent PeerTube modules, only use `peertubeHelpers`. If you need another helper or a specific, please [create an issue](https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/new)
285 * Don't use PeerTube dependencies. Use your own :)
286
287If your plugin is broken with a new PeerTube release, update your code and the `peertubeEngine` `package.json` field.
288This way, older PeerTube versions will still use your old plugin, and new PeerTube versions will use your updated plugin.
289
290### Spam/moderation plugin
291
292If you want to create an antispam/moderation plugin, you could use the following hooks:
293 * `filter:api.video.upload.accept.result`: to accept or not local uploads
294 * `filter:api.video-thread.create.accept.result`: to accept or not local thread
295 * `filter:api.video-comment-reply.create.accept.result`: to accept or not local replies
296 * `filter:api.video-threads.list.result`: to change/hide the text of threads
297 * `filter:api.video-thread-comments.list.result`: to change/hide the text of replies
298 * `filter:video.auto-blacklist.result`: to automatically blacklist local or remote videos
