Extension structure

Folder structure

Compiled extension should be placed in the index.js file or /dist/index.js file in the public GIT repository

Extension entrypoint

Each extension should export an object by default with the following structure:

interface Extension {
  [key: string]: unknown;

  onMounted: (api: OrgNoteApi) => Promise<void>;
  onUnmounted?: (api: OrgNoteApi) => Promise<void>;
}

You can find available methods of OrgNoteApi here

Extension manifest

Also, each extension should export manifest const:

interface ExtensionManifest {
  /* Should be unique in the extension repo */
  name: string;
  version: string;
  category: 'theme' | 'extension' | 'language pack' | 'other';
  /* OrgNote api semver, 0.13.4 for example */
  apiVersion?: string;
  author?: string;
  description?: string;
  keywords?: string[];
  // Repository url
  sourceType: 'git' | 'file' | 'builtin';
  /* Default value is README.org */
  readmeFilePath?: string;
  /* WIP */
  permissions?: Array<'files' | 'personal info' | '*' | 'third party'>;
  reloadRequired?: boolean;
  sourceUrl?: string;
  sponsor?: string[];
  development?: boolean;
  icon?: string;
}

Extension API

Publish to official repository

OrgNote has an official repository for user-based extensions. You can easily add new recipes/<package>.json with ExtensionManifest
