Plugin Development

do I have to read the source for each object to learns its methods?

Yes, you will have to read the source code to see what methods are available.

@Yve-Salazar Are you still looking to distinguish between API calls via curl?

@baris thanks! This was very helpful. @Sebastián-Cisneros and I really appreciate it.

That's not possible out of the box, you would have to write a plugin to set the groupTitle value to all the groups the user is a member of.

@baris This worked like a charm. Thank you!

@julian This worked great. I did this in my main client file (like persona.js).

require(['hooks'], (hooks) => { hooks.on('filter:script.load', (data) => { const replaceMap = { register: { target: 'forum/register', with: 'replacement/register', }, }; const replace = replaceMap[data.tpl_url]; if (replace) { const index = data.scripts.indexOf(replace.target); if (index > -1) data.scripts[index] = replace.with; else data.scripts.push(replace.with); } return data; }); });

Then I can just add my scripts that I want to replace to the replaceMap object.

I guess the right one is this one

filter:email.cancel

accodring to nodebb documents

const result = await Plugins.hooks.fire('filter:email.cancel', { cancel: false, // set to true in plugin to cancel sending email template: template, params: params, });

right?

@baris Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.

Thanks to @julian we finaly found the problem.
Here is the pull request.

In fact, this bug only occurs when an administrator update a member profile.

See GitHub for reference, https://github.com/LM1LC3N7/nodebb-plugin-private-forum/issues/4#issuecomment-1034840197

Wondering if anyone has an idea why the calendar page is accessible when not logged in while using the private forum plugin.

@PitaJ No errors, I redid it from scratch and it worked, I must have done something wrong. Thank you.

@PitaJ said in How to call API from client side.:

require(['api', 'translator'], (api, translator) => {
// Your code here
});

genius! and fast reply!

After install "nodebb-plugin-sso-beer-qq", my server crashed and nginx return code 502.

After reset all plugins, my server is back to normal again.

Hooks that are fired on the server side are only available for use for plugins in their server side code. Same for client side hooks they are only available for use in the client side code of plugins.

@tobiasdossinger The real question here is why you need javascript enabled...

I am 95% certain you came here because maybe a theme of yours you have suddenly stopped working, with a cryptic error about turning javascriptEnabled on, yes?

In that case, you may want to audit your theme and figure out what exactly needs javascript in your LESS... there really is no reason to that I have come across... although I could be mistaken.

In Persona's case, it was the .opacity() mixin, which was not required anymore, as opacity is well supported cross-browser now: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-theme-persona/commit/e14d38b827591c9681a5fcd43ca4b206297eaff5

You need to make your controller async for it to work.

init: async params => { RouteHelpers.setupAdminPageRoute(params.router, '/admin/plugins/myplugin', params.middleware, [], async (req, res) => { res.render('admin/plugins/myplugin', { username: await User.getUserField(req.uid, 'username') }) }) }

I suggest using user.updateProfile to make these changes, since it updates the necessary sorted sets for email/fullname.

You can use the same function to update the picture url as well.

await User.updateProfile(callerUid, { uid: targetUid, uploadedpicture: url, picture: url, }, ['uploadedpicture', 'picture']);

@sebastián-cisneros In static:api.routes, you'll want to call controllerHelpers.setupAPIRoute to mount the route to the appropriate /api/v3/plugins mount point.

You can see an example of how we do it in the quickstart plugin

@julian thanks!
I successed with plugin socket https://community.nodebb.org/post/76984

You can set the templates directory to anything in plugin.json, I think it defaults to just templates if you don't specify.

Them you match the path from views, so it would be templates/emails where you put them.
