### Creating Plugins
Plugins are external, dynamically-loaded components that extend DankBar functionality. Plugins are stored in `~/.config/DankMaterialShell/plugins/` and have their settings isolated from core DMS settings.
1. **Create plugin directory**:
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.config/DankMaterialShell/plugins/YourPlugin
```
2. **Create manifest** (`plugin.json`):
```json
{
"id": "yourPlugin",
"name": "Your Plugin",
"description": "Widget description",
"version": "1.0.0",
"author": "Your Name",
"icon": "extension",
"component": "./YourWidget.qml",
"settings": "./YourSettings.qml",
"permissions": ["settings_read", "settings_write"]
}
```
3. **Create widget component** (`YourWidget.qml`):
```qml
import QtQuick
import qs.Services
Rectangle {
id: root
property bool compactMode: false
property string section: "center"
property real widgetHeight: 30
property var pluginService: null
width: content.implicitWidth + 16
height: widgetHeight
radius: 8
color: "#20FFFFFF"
Component.onCompleted: {
if (pluginService) {
var data = pluginService.loadPluginData("yourPlugin", "key", defaultValue)
}
}
}
```
4. **Create settings component** (`YourSettings.qml`):
```qml
import QtQuick
import QtQuick.Controls
FocusScope {
id: root
property var pluginService: null
implicitHeight: settingsColumn.implicitHeight
height: implicitHeight
Column {
id: settingsColumn
anchors.fill: parent
anchors.margins: 16
spacing: 12
Text {
text: "Your Plugin Settings"
font.pixelSize: 18
font.weight: Font.Bold
}
// Your settings UI here
}
function saveSettings(key, value) {
if (pluginService) {
pluginService.savePluginData("yourPlugin", key, value)
}
}
function loadSettings(key, defaultValue) {
if (pluginService) {
return pluginService.loadPluginData("yourPlugin", key, defaultValue)
}
return defaultValue
}
}
```
5. **Enable plugin**:
- Open Settings → Plugins
- Click "Scan for Plugins"
- Toggle plugin to enable
- Add plugin ID to DankBar widget list
**Plugin Directory Structure:**
```
~/.config/DankMaterialShell/
├── settings.json # Core DMS settings + plugin settings
│ └── pluginSettings: {
│ └── yourPlugin: {
│ ├── enabled: true,
│ └── customData: {...}
│ }
│ }
└── plugins/ # Plugin files directory
└── YourPlugin/ # Plugin directory (matches manifest ID)
├── plugin.json # Plugin manifest
├── YourWidget.qml # Widget component
└── YourSettings.qml # Settings UI (optional)
```
**Key Plugin APIs:**
- `pluginService.loadPluginData(pluginId, key, default)` - Load persistent data
- `pluginService.savePluginData(pluginId, key, value)` - Save persistent data
- `PluginService.enablePlugin(pluginId)` - Load plugin
- `PluginService.disablePlugin(pluginId)` - Unload plugin
**Important Notes:**
- Plugin settings are automatically injected by the PluginService via `item.pluginService = PluginService`
- Settings are stored in the main settings.json but namespaced under `pluginSettings.{pluginId}`
- Plugin directories must match the plugin ID in the manifest
- Use the injected `pluginService` property in both widget and settings components
### Debugging Common Issues
1. **Import errors**: Check import paths

- **Function Discovery**: Use grep/search tools to find existing utility functions before implementing new ones
- **Modern QML Patterns**: Leverage new widgets like DankTextField, DankDropdown, CachingImage
- **Structured Organization**: Follow the established Services/Modules/Widgets/Modals separation
- **Plugin System**: For user extensions, create plugins instead of modifying core modules - see docs/PLUGINS.md
