# Some background
|
|
|
|
Terminus is an Electron app, with the frontend written in Typescript with the help of Angular framework. It's built using Webpack.
|
|
|
|
# Getting started
|
|
|
|
First of all, clone this repository. You'll also need a recent version of Node installed.
|
|
|
|
First, install the dependencies:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# macOS/Linux:
|
|
npm install
|
|
./scripts/install-deps.js
|
|
./scripts/build-native.js
|
|
|
|
# Windows:
|
|
npm -g install windows-build-tools
|
|
npm install
|
|
node scripts\install-deps.js
|
|
node scripts\build-native.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, check if your build is working:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
npm run build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Start Terminus with
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
|

# Plugins
|
|
|
|
The app will load all plugins from the source checkout in the dev mode, from the user's plugins directory at all times (click `Open Plugins Directory` under `Settings` > `Plugins`) and from the directory specified by the `TERMINUS_PLUGINS` environment var.
|
|
|
|
Only modules whose `package.json` file contains a `terminus-plugin` keyword will be loaded.
|
|
|
|
If you're currently in your plugin's directory, start Terminus as `TERMINUS_PLUGINS=$(pwd) terminus --debug`
|
|
|
|
A plugin should only provide a default export, which should be a `NgModule` class (or a `NgModuleWithDependencies` where applicable). This module will be injected as a dependency to the app's root module.
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
|
|
|
|
@NgModule()
|
|
export default class MyModule {
|
|
constructor () {
|
|
console.log('Angular engaged, cap\'n.')
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Plugins provide functionality by exporting singular or multi providers:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
import { NgModule, Injectable } from '@angular/core'
|
|
import { ToolbarButtonProvider, IToolbarButton } from 'terminus-core'
|
|
|
|
@Injectable()
|
|
export class MyButtonProvider extends ToolbarButtonProvider {
|
|
provide (): IToolbarButton[] {
|
|
return [{
|
|
icon: 'star',
|
|
title: 'Foobar',
|
|
weight: 10,
|
|
click: () => {
|
|
alert('Woohoo!')
|
|
}
|
|
}]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
@NgModule({
|
|
providers: [
|
|
{ provide: ToolbarButtonProvider, useClass: MyButtonProvider, multi: true },
|
|
],
|
|
})
|
|
export default class MyModule { }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
See `terminus-core/src/api.ts`, `terminus-settings/src/api.ts` and `terminus-terminal/src/api.ts` for the available extension points.
|
|
|
|
Publish your plugin on NPM with a `terminus-plugin` keyword to make it appear in the Plugin Manager.
