//! # Nu Plugin: Plugin library for Nushell
|
|
//!
|
|
//! This crate contains the interface necessary to build Nushell plugins in Rust.
|
|
//! Additionally, it contains public, but undocumented, items used by Nushell itself
|
|
//! to interface with Nushell plugins. This documentation focuses on the interface
|
|
//! needed to write an independent plugin.
|
|
//!
|
|
//! Nushell plugins are stand-alone applications that communicate with Nushell
|
|
//! over stdin and stdout using a standardizes serialization framework to exchange
|
|
//! the typed data that Nushell commands utilize natively.
|
|
//!
|
|
//! A typical plugin application will define a struct that implements the [`Plugin`]
|
|
//! trait and then, in its main method, pass that [`Plugin`] to the [`serve_plugin()`]
|
|
//! function, which will handle all of the input and output serialization when
|
|
//! invoked by Nushell.
|
|
//!
|
|
//! ```rust,no_run
|
|
//! use nu_plugin::{EvaluatedCall, MsgPackSerializer, serve_plugin};
|
|
//! use nu_plugin::{EngineInterface, Plugin, PluginCommand, SimplePluginCommand};
|
|
//! use nu_protocol::{LabeledError, Signature, Value};
|
|
//!
|
|
//! struct MyPlugin;
|
|
//! struct MyCommand;
|
|
//!
|
|
//! impl Plugin for MyPlugin {
|
|
//! fn version(&self) -> String {
|
|
//! env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION").into()
|
|
//! }
|
|
//!
|
|
//! fn commands(&self) -> Vec<Box<dyn PluginCommand<Plugin = Self>>> {
|
|
//! vec![Box::new(MyCommand)]
|
|
//! }
|
|
//! }
|
|
//!
|
|
//! impl SimplePluginCommand for MyCommand {
|
|
//! type Plugin = MyPlugin;
|
|
//!
|
|
//! fn name(&self) -> &str {
|
|
//! "my-command"
|
|
//! }
|
|
//!
|
|
//! fn description(&self) -> &str {
|
|
//! todo!();
|
|
//! }
|
|
//!
|
|
//! fn signature(&self) -> Signature {
|
|
//! todo!();
|
|
//! }
|
|
//!
|
|
//! fn run(
|
|
//! &self,
|
|
//! plugin: &MyPlugin,
|
|
//! engine: &EngineInterface,
|
|
//! call: &EvaluatedCall,
|
|
//! input: &Value
|
|
//! ) -> Result<Value, LabeledError> {
|
|
//! todo!();
|
|
//! }
|
|
//! }
|
|
//!
|
|
//! fn main() {
|
|
//! serve_plugin(&MyPlugin{}, MsgPackSerializer)
|
|
//! }
|
|
//! ```
|
|
//!
|
|
//! Nushell's source tree contains a
|
|
//! [Plugin Example](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/tree/main/crates/nu_plugin_example)
|
|
//! that demonstrates the full range of plugin capabilities.
