=================

Plugin support for Profanity is currently in development.
|
|
|
|
* The `master` branch of Profanity now includes support for C and Python plugins.
|
|
* The `plugins` branch contains additional support for Ruby and Lua, but is unstable.
|
|

Building Profanity with plugin support

|
|
|
|
Additional dependencies required:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
autoconf-archive
|
|
libtool
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Plus the development packages for supported languages:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python-dev
|
|
lua-dev
|
|
ruby-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build with:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./bootstrap.sh
|
|
./configure --enable-python-plugins
|
|
make
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
```
|
|

Only support for Python 2.7 is currently included, after building, run `profanity -v` to see which language support is available, example output:

|
|
|
Use the `/plugins install` command, e.g.

|
|
|
```
|
|
/plugins install ~/projects-git/profanity-plugins/say.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See the `/help plugins` command for further plugin management options.

|
Plugin themes
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The plugins API includes functions to print themed output to the console or a plugins window. The themes need to be added to
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
~/.local/share/profanity/plugin_themes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For example ([syscmd.py](https://github.com/boothj5/profanity-plugins/blob/master/syscmd.py) plugin):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[system]
|
|
command=cyan
|
|
result=green
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Plugin settings
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
The plugins API also includes functions to read and write settings. The settings are stored in:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
~/.local/share/profanity/plugin_settings
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For example ([say.py](https://github.com/boothj5/profanity-plugins/blob/master/say.py) plugin):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[say]
|
|
args=-v english -s 120
|
|
enabled=active
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
