ClipCC Extension Writing Guide

This tutorial will illustrate the basic process of writing ClipCC extensions by demonstrating the writing of a simple extension. Please note! This document is time-sensitive, so there is no guarantee that the content is still relevant for the current version. Please see the documentation and jsdoc as final reference.

Preparation

  1. you need a computer with acceptable performance. for device safety, please do not developing by smartphone🤔.
  2. you need to install Node.js and npm (you can also use yarn instead).

Create a new project

To make it easier to write the extension, please go to your working folder and then run the following commands in order.

npm -g install clipcc-extension-cli # You can also replace it with yarn global add clipcc-extension-cli
mkdir example-extension # example-extension can be replaced with the name of your own extension project
cd example-extension
npm init # can also be replaced with yarn init
ccext-cli

In the last step, the ClipCC extension development scaffold will ask questions about the extension information. please note that we will use JavaScript(CommonJS) for development, so please choose JavaScript as your programming language.Although I prefer TypeScript

After answering the questions, the scaffold will automatically install the dependencies and wait for the installation to complete before creating a new ClipCC extension project.

Write an extension

After running, the contents of your folder should look like this.

/src
package.json
webpack.config.js

Where the core code of the extension is stored under the src folder, the contents of the folder should look like this (it's normal that the locales folder doesn't exist, so please create it yourself to attach files)

assets/
- icon.jpg
- inset_icon.svg
locales/
- en.json
index.js
info.json

The locales directory is used to store the text of the block in different languages, assets is used to store the plugin resources, index.js is the main file to register the block/implement the function, and info.json is the plugin information.

First, open src/index.js and fill in the following content.

const {api, type, extension} = require('clipcc-extension');
class ExampleExtension extends Extension {
    onInit() {
        api.addCategory({
            categoryId: 'clipteam.example.category',
            messageId: 'clipteam.example.category.category',
            color: '#339900'
        });
        api.addBlock({
            opcode: 'clipteam.example.return',
            type: type.BlockType.REPORTER,
            messageId: 'clipteam.example.return.message',
            categoryId: 'clipteam.example.category',
            param: {
                VALUE: {
                    type: type.ParameterType.STRING,
                    default: 'Hello World!'
                }
            },
            function: args => this.ReturnValue(args.VALUE)
        });
        api.addBlock({
            opcode: 'clipteam.example.helloworld',
            type: type.BlockType.COMMAND,
            messageId: 'clipteam.example.helloworld.message',
            categoryId: 'clipteam.example.category',
            function: args => this.HelloWorld()
        });
    }
    onUninit() {
        api.removeCategory('clipteam.example.category');
    }
    ReturnValue(VALUE) {
        return VALUE;
    }
    HelloWorld() {
        console.log("Hello World!");
        alert("Hello World!");
    }
}
module.exports = ExampleExtension;

Then open locales/en.json and fill in

{
    "clipteam.example.name": "Example",
    "clipteam.example.category.message": "Example",
    "clipteam.example.description": "ClipCC example extension,
    "clipteam.example.return.message": "return [VALUE]",
    "clipteam.example.message": "Hello World!"
}

After writing, run npm run build in the project top-level folder and the generated plugin can be found under dist/. Afterwards, import the generated plugin directly into ClipCC 3.1 and it will work as follows.
