Genie Plugins
You MUST have the Vala bindings installed on your system for this to work. They are built by the default GPlugin build.
Example Genie Plugin
Like all plugins in GPlugin, Genie plugins must also implement the
gplugin_query
, gplugin_load
, and gplugin_unload
functions.
Due to the way GPlugin.PluginInfo
info works, you must subclass it and set
your values in the new constructor.
The following is a basic Genie plugin.
uses GPlugin
class BasicPluginInfo : GPlugin.PluginInfo
construct()
authors : array of string = {"author1"}
Object(
id: "gplugin/genie-basic-plugin",
abi_version: 0x01020304,
name: "basic plugin",
authors: authors,
category: "test",
version: "version",
license_id: "license",
summary: "summary",
website: "website",
description: "description"
)
def gplugin_query(out error : Error) : GPlugin.PluginInfo
error = null
return new BasicPluginInfo()
def gplugin_load(plugin : GPlugin.Plugin, out error : Error) : bool
error = null
return true
def gplugin_unload(plugin : GPlugin.Plugin, out error : Error) : bool
error = null
return true
