Plugin Examples

These examples demonstrate Scriptling plugins loaded from executable files with --plugin-dir.

Go Plugin

hello-go demonstrates all registration styles in one plugin:

go build -o /tmp/scriptling-plugins/hello-go ./examples/plugins/hello-go
scriptling --plugin-dir /tmp/scriptling-plugins -c 'import plugin.hello; print(plugin.hello.greet("Ada"))'

It exposes:

• plugin.hello.greet(name) — function via RegisterFunc
• plugin.hello.label(name) — function via RegisterFunc
• plugin.hello.Config(name).get(key) — class via RegisterClass
• plugin.hello.Counter(start).inc(amount) — class via RegisterClass
• plugin.hello.default_name — constant

Mixed Wrapper Plugin

mixed-wrapper shows generated proxies and custom Scriptling wrappers in the same plugin:

go build -o /tmp/scriptling-plugins/wrap ./examples/plugins/mixed-wrapper
scriptling --plugin-dir /tmp/scriptling-plugins -c 'import plugin.wrap; print(plugin.wrap.greet("Ada"))'

It exposes:

• plugin.wrap.generated(name) — auto-generated function proxy
• plugin.wrap.greet(name) — custom function wrapper
• plugin.wrap.Settings(name) — auto-generated class proxy
• plugin.wrap.Config(name) — custom class wrapper with a defaulted get

Bash Plugin

bash/hello-plugin.sh implements the JSON-RPC protocol directly. It requires jq and is meant as a small protocol example rather than a production plugin.

mkdir -p /tmp/scriptling-plugins
cp examples/plugins/bash/hello-plugin.sh /tmp/scriptling-plugins/hello-plugin
chmod +x /tmp/scriptling-plugins/hello-plugin
scriptling --plugin-dir /tmp/scriptling-plugins -c 'import plugin.hello; print(plugin.hello.greet("Ada"))'

Callback Plugin

callback demonstrates passing a Scriptling function into a Go plugin. The plugin invokes it several times while the outer function is still running.

go build -o /tmp/scriptling-plugins/callback ./examples/plugins/callback
cat > /tmp/callback-demo.sl <<'EOF'
import plugin.callback
events = []

def on_event(e):
    events.append(e)

print(plugin.callback.stream(on_event))
print(events)
EOF
scriptling --plugin-dir /tmp/scriptling-plugins /tmp/callback-demo.sl
