# Plugin Development
|
||||
|
||||
## Plugin types
|
||||
|
||||
CodePress has two kinds of plugins, determined by the `type` field in `plugin.json`:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Content plugins** (`type: "content"`) — Appear in the sidebar and in the plugin selection on content-edit pages. Provide sidebar content via `getSidebarContent()`.
|
||||
- **System plugins** (`type: "system"`) — Are loaded by PluginManager but do NOT appear in the sidebar. Provide functionality via admin menu, routes and the CMSAPI.
|
||||
|
||||
When no `type` field is present, `content` is assumed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Plugin structure
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
plugins/MyPlugin/
|
||||
├── plugin.json # Plugin metadata
|
||||
├── plugin.php # Plugin code
|
||||
└── config.json # Optional configuration
|
||||
├── MyPlugin.php # Plugin code (NOT plugin.php)
|
||||
├── plugin.json # Metadata with type field
|
||||
├── config.json # Optional configuration
|
||||
└── assets/
|
||||
├── scss/myplugin.scss # SCSS source (optional)
|
||||
└── css/myplugin.css # CSS (manually maintained)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Plugin files are named `<PluginName>.php` (e.g. `Navigation.php`, `HTMLBlock.php`). `PluginManager` loads `$pluginDir . '/' . $pluginName . '.php'`.
|
||||
|
||||
## plugin.json
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"name": "My Plugin",
|
||||
"version": "1.0.0",
|
||||
"author": "Your Name",
|
||||
"description": "Description"
|
||||
"name": "My Plugin",
|
||||
"version": "1.0.0",
|
||||
"author": "Your Name",
|
||||
"description": "Description",
|
||||
"type": "content"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## plugin.php example
|
||||
- `name` — Display name
|
||||
- `type` — `"content"` or `"system"` (default: `content`)
|
||||
|
||||
## Content plugin example
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
<?php
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* Plugin: MyPlugin
|
||||
* Plugin: MyPlugin (content)
|
||||
*/
|
||||
class MyPlugin
|
||||
{
|
||||
public function getConfig(): array
|
||||
{
|
||||
return [
|
||||
'title' => 'My Plugin',
|
||||
'type' => 'content',
|
||||
];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
echo '<div class="my-plugin">Hello World</div>';
|
||||
public function getSidebarContent(): string
|
||||
{
|
||||
return '<p>Hello World</p>';
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## System plugin example
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
<?php
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* Plugin: MySystem (system)
|
||||
*/
|
||||
class MySystem
|
||||
{
|
||||
public function getConfig(): array
|
||||
{
|
||||
return [
|
||||
'title' => 'My System',
|
||||
'type' => 'system',
|
||||
];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
public function getAdminMenu(): array
|
||||
{
|
||||
return [
|
||||
['label' => 'My System', 'route' => 'my-system', 'icon' => 'bi-gear'],
|
||||
];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
public function getAdminRoutes(): array
|
||||
{
|
||||
return ['my-system'];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
public function handleAdminRoute(string $route): void
|
||||
{
|
||||
echo '<h1>My System page</h1>';
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
System plugins are shown in the admin sidebar via `PluginManager::getAdminMenuItems()` and handled via `PluginManager::handleAdminRoute()`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Using CMSAPI
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
<?php
|
||||
require_once '../../cms/core/class/PluginManager.php';
|
||||
|
||||
$api = PluginManager::getAPI();
|
||||
$config = $api->getConfig();
|
||||
$content = $api->getContent();
|
||||
```
|
||||
$page = $api->getPage($path);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`setAPI()` is called automatically by `PluginManager` if the plugin has the method.
|
||||
|
||||
## Plugin CSS
|
||||
|
||||
- Plugin CSS in `assets/css/` is manually maintained (SCSS compilation for plugins is not yet automatic)
|
||||
- Plugin CSS is automatically loaded after theme CSS (in `base.twig`), so themes can override plugin styling
|
||||
- Plugin assets are served via `cms/router.php` at URL `/plugins/<Name>/assets/...`
|
||||
- Implement `getCssUrl()` in the plugin class to return the CSS URL
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
public function getCssUrl(): string
|
||||
{
|
||||
return '/plugins/MyPlugin/assets/css/myplugin.css';
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Hooks and filters
|
||||
|
||||
PluginManager auto-registers these methods as hooks/filters:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Hooks**: `onPageLoad`, `onBeforeRender`, `onAfterRender`, `onSearch`, `onMenuBuild`
|
||||
- **Filters**: `onContentFilter`, `onTitleFilter`, `onMenuFilter`
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
public function onPageLoad($page) { /* ... */ }
|
||||
public function onContentFilter($content) { return $content; }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Essential plugins
|
||||
|
||||
Essential plugins are defined in `getProtectedPlugins()` in `public/admin.php`. Current essential plugin: **Navigation**.
|
||||
|
||||
These plugins cannot be deactivated, edited or deleted. Always add the `isProtectedPlugin()` check to new plugin handlers.
