0.9.0

• Plugins now inherit from PluginBase, it's now pretty simple to make plugins

• minimal plugin:

  from ..libs.pluginbase import PluginBase
  
  class Plugin(PluginBase):
      def __init__(self, start, *args):
          super().__init__(start, *args)
          self.version = "0.9.0"
  
      def _make_layout(self):
          """Here is where the ingredients to bake a
          great plugin and webview template go
          """
          pass
  
      def _event_loop(self, event):
          """Event getter
          before every _start cycle
          """
          pass
  
      def _start(self):
          """Main loop of the plugin
          this includes a refresh of self.screen
          """
          pass

0.0.3

• Plugins and libs have to use relative imports

• example:

  from ..libs.screen import Screen
  from ..libs.text import Text
  
  class Plugin():
      def __init__(self, matrix=True, show=False, guishow=False):
          super(Plugin, self).__init__()
          self.name = "Example Plugin"
          self.version = "0.0.3"
  
          self.sample_text = Text('sample text')
  
          self.screen = Screen(matrix=matrix, show=show)
          self.screen.add(self.sample_text, refresh=False)
  
      def start(self):
          self.screen.refresh()

0.0.2

• The Plugin class is now required to launch the plugin

• example:

  from libs.screen import Screen
  
  class Plugin():
      def __init__(self, matrix=True, show=False, guishow=False):
          super(Plugin, self).__init__()
          self.name = "Example Plugin"
          self.version = "0.0.2"
          self.screen = Screen(matrix=matrix, show=show)
  
      def start(self):
          self.screen.refresh()

0.0.1

• plugins are now in the plugins folder.

• each updated plugin must have a self.version attribute set to the last version value.

• remove the standalone code of the plugin as it has to be launched from glm.py

• example:

  from libs.screen import Screen
  
  class Plugin():
      def __init__(self, matrix=True, show=False, guishow=False):
          super(Plugin, self).__init__()
          self.version = "0.0.1"
          self.screen = Screen(matrix=matrix, show=show)
  
      def start(self):
          self.screen.refresh()
