Clone me, to create a new Haraka plugin!

Template Instructions

These instructions will not self-destruct after use. Use and destroy.

See also, How to Write a Plugin and Plugins.md for additional plugin writing information.

Create a new repo for your plugin

Haraka plugins are named like haraka-plugin-something. All the namespace after haraka-plugin- is yours for the taking. Please check the Plugins page and a Google search to see what plugins already exist.

Once you've settled on a name, create the GitHub repo. On the template repo's main page, click the Use this template button and create your new repository. Then paste that URL into a local ENV variable with a command like this:

export MY_GITHUB_ORG=haraka
export MY_PLUGIN_NAME=haraka-plugin-SOMETHING

Clone and rename the template repo:

git clone git@github.com:haraka/$MY_PLUGIN_NAME.git
cd $MY_PLUGIN_NAME

Now you'll have a local git repo to begin authoring your plugin

rename boilerplate

Replaces all uses of the word template with your plugin's name.

./redress.sh [something]

You'll then be prompted to update package.json and then force push this repo onto the GitHub repo you've created earlier.
