However, there will be an overlay * button that when clicked, will show all available applications with their names, * icons and provider plugins. When one clicks on an app's icon, they will be directed * to // to access the application. */ /** * Plugins * * Plugins are just node modules. * * 1. code-server uses $CS_PLUGIN to find plugins. * * e.g. CS_PLUGIN=/tmp/will:/tmp/teffen will cause code-server to load * /tmp/will and /tmp/teffen as plugins. * * 2. code-server uses $CS_PLUGIN_PATH to find plugins. Each subdirectory in * $CS_PLUGIN_PATH with a package.json where the engine is code-server is * a valid plugin. * * e.g. CS_PLUGIN_PATH=/tmp/nhooyr:/tmp/ash will cause code-server to search * /tmp/nhooyr and then /tmp/ash for plugins. * * CS_PLUGIN_PATH defaults to * ~/.local/share/code-server/plugins:/usr/share/code-server/plugins * if unset. * * * 3. Built in plugins are loaded from __dirname/../plugins * * Plugins are required as soon as they are found and then initialized. * See the Plugin interface for details. * * If two plugins are found with the exact same name, then code-server will * use the first one and emit a warning. * * There is also a /api/applications endpoint to allow programmatic access to all * available applications. It could be used to create a custom application dashboard * for example. An important difference with the API is that all application paths * will be absolute (i.e have the plugin path prepended) so that they may be used * directly. */ /** * Your plugin module must implement this interface. * * The plugin's router will be mounted at / */ export interface Plugin { /** * name is used as the plugin's unique identifier. * No two plugins may share the same name. * * Fetched from package.json. */ readonly name?: string /** * The version for the plugin in the overlay. * * Fetched from package.json. */ readonly version?: string /** * Name used in the overlay. */ readonly displayName: string /** * Used in overlay. * Should be a full sentence describing the plugin. */ readonly description: string /** * The path at which the plugin router is to be registered. */ readonly routerPath: string /** * init is called so that the plugin may initialize itself with the config. */ init(config: PluginConfig): void /** * Returns the plugin's router. * * Mounted at / */ router(): express.Router /** * code-server uses this to collect the list of applications that * the plugin can currently provide. * It is called when /api/applications is hit or the overlay needs to * refresh the list of applications * * Ensure this is as fast as possible. */ applications(): Application[] | Promise } /** * PluginConfig contains the configuration required for initializing * a plugin. */ export interface PluginConfig { /** * All plugin logs should be logged via this logger. */ readonly logger: Logger } /** * Application represents a user accessible application. */ export interface Application { readonly name: string readonly version: string /** * When the user clicks on the icon in the overlay, they will be * redirected to // * where the application should be accessible. * * If undefined, then / is used. */ readonly path?: string readonly description?: string /** * The path at which the icon for this application can be accessed. * /// */ readonly iconPath: string }
