Plugin Development
ClipBucket was inspired by Wordpress For the Development however its not as efficient as Wordpress, we will try to get things done vial available options
Good news is Vodlix & ClipBucket share the same Core for the Plugins
- plugins
|-plugin_folder
|- plugin_name.php
|- plugin_name_install.php //Call when plugin is about to install
|- plugin_name_uninstall.php //Caled when plugin is about to uninstall
//Example
- plugins
|-global_announcement
|-global_announcement.php
Just like wordpress, you have mention the plugin detail at the top in comments just as shown below
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Global announcement
Description: This will let you post a global announcement on your website
Author: Arslan Hassan
ClipBucket Version: 1.8
Plugin Version: 1.0
Website: http://google.com/
*/
This is pure PHP Script, nothing fancy, we usually just call DB Queries in it. e.g
//Creating Table for anncoument if not exists
function install_global_announcement()
{
global $db;
$db->Execute(
'CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS '.tbl("global_announcement").' (
`announcement` text NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;;'
);
//inserting new announcment
$db->Execute("INSERT INTO ".tbl('global_announcement')." (announcement) VALUES ('')");
}
//This will first check if plugin is installed or not, if not this function will install the plugin details
install_global_announcement();
//Function used to uninstall Plugin
function un_install_global_announcement()
{
global $db;
$db->Execute(
'DROP TABLE '.tbl("global_announcement").''
);
}
un_install_global_announcement();
