Adds 'smart plugin' support to your base application.
Install with npm:
$ npm install --save base-plugins
What does this do?
This plugin augments the generic plugin functionality that ships with base.
use method and are only called once upon init.plugins array, and can be called again later with the run method.var plugins = require('base-plugins');
var Base = require('base');
var base = new Base();
// register the `plugins` plugin
base.use(plugins());
Once the use method is called:
fns array is added to the instance for storing plugin functionsrun method is added to the instance for running stored pluginsuse method is modified so that anytime a function is returned by a plugin, the function will be pushed onto the fns array. Aside from that, you shouldn't see any difference in how the use method works.The run method iterates over the fns array and calls each stored plugin function on the given object.
var collection = {};
base.use(function(app) {
app.x = 'y';
return function(obj) {
obj.a = 'b';
};
});
base.run(collection);
console.log(base.x);
//=> 'y'
console.log(collection.a);
//=> 'b'
Define a plugin function to be called immediately upon init. The only parameter exposed to the plugin is the application instance.
Also, if a plugin returns a function, the function will be pushed
onto the fns array, allowing the plugin to be called at a
later point, elsewhere in the application.
