# Server-side hooks
|
|
These hooks are called on server-side.
|
|
|
|
## loadSettings
|
|
Called from: src/node/server.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. settings - the settings object
|
|
|
|
Use this hook to receive the global settings in your plugin.
|
|
|
|
## pluginUninstall
|
|
Called from: src/static/js/pluginfw/installer.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. plugin_name - self-explanatory
|
|
|
|
If this hook returns an error, the callback to the uninstall function gets an error as well. This mostly seems useful for handling additional features added in based on the installation of other plugins, which is pretty cool!
|
|
|
|
## pluginInstall
|
|
Called from: src/static/js/pluginfw/installer.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. plugin_name - self-explanatory
|
|
|
|
If this hook returns an error, the callback to the install function gets an error, too. This seems useful for adding in features when a particular plugin is installed.
|
|
|
|
## init_`<plugin name>`
|
|
Called from: src/static/js/pluginfw/plugins.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context: None
|
|
|
|
This function is called after a specific plugin is initialized. This would probably be more useful than the previous two functions if you only wanted to add in features to one specific plugin.
|
|
|
|
## expressConfigure
|
|
Called from: src/node/server.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. app - the main application object
|
|
|
|
This is a helpful hook for changing the behavior and configuration of the application. It's called right after the application gets configured.
|
|
|
|
## expressCreateServer
|
|
Called from: src/node/server.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. app - the main express application object (helpful for adding new paths and such)
|
|
2. server - the http server object
|
|
|
|
This hook gets called after the application object has been created, but before it starts listening. This is similar to the expressConfigure hook, but it's not guaranteed that the application object will have all relevant configuration variables.
|
|
|
|
## eejsBlock_`<name>`
|
|
Called from: src/node/eejs/index.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. content - the content of the block
|
|
|
|
This hook gets called upon the rendering of an ejs template block. For any specific kind of block, you can change how that block gets rendered by modifying the content object passed in.
|
|
|

Available blocks in `pad.html` are:

|
|
|
* `htmlHead` - after `<html>` and immediately before the title tag
|
|
* `styles` - the style `<link>`s
|
|
* `body` - the contents of the body tag
|
|
* `editbarMenuLeft` - the left tool bar (consider using the toolbar controller instead of manually adding html here)
|
|
* `editbarMenuRight` - right tool bar
|
|
* `afterEditbar` - allows you to add stuff immediately after the toolbar
|
|
* `userlist` - the contents of the userlist dropdown
|
|
* `loading` - the intial loading message
|
|
* `mySettings` - the left column of the settings dropdown ("My view"); intended for adding checkboxes only
|
|
* `mySettings.dropdowns` - add your dropdown settings here
|
|
* `globalSettings` - the right column of the settings dropdown ("Global view")
|
|
* `importColumn` - import form
|
|
* `exportColumn` - export form
|
|
* `modals` - Contains all connectivity messages
|
|
* `embedPopup` - the embed dropdown
|
|
* `scripts` - Add your script tags here, if you really have to (consider use client-side hooks instead)
|
|
|
|
`timeslider.html` blocks:
|
|
|
|
* `timesliderStyles`
|
|
* `timesliderScripts`
|
|
* `timesliderBody`
|
|
* `timesliderTop`
|
|
* `timesliderEditbarRight`
|
|

|
|
|
|
`index.html` blocks:
|
|
|
|
* `indexWrapper` - contains the form for creating new pads
|

## authenticate

|
2. res - the response object
|
|

|
|
## handleMessage
|
|
Called from: src/node/handler/PadMessageHandler.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. message - the message being handled
|
|
2. client - the client object from socket.io
|
|
|
|
This hook will be called once a message arrive. If a plugin calls `callback(null)` the message will be dropped. However it is not possible to modify the message.
|
|
|
|
Plugins may also decide to implement custom behavior once a message arrives.
|
|
|
|
**WARNING**: handleMessage will be called, even if the client is not authorized to send this message. It's up to the plugin to check permissions.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
function handleMessage ( hook, context, callback ) {
|
|
if ( context.message.type == 'USERINFO_UPDATE' ) {
|
|
// If the message type is USERINFO_UPDATE, drop the message
|
|
callback(null);
|
|
}else{
|
|
callback();
|
|
}
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## clientVars
|
|
Called from: src/node/handler/PadMessageHandler.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. clientVars - the basic `clientVars` built by the core
|
|
2. pad - the pad this session is about
|
|
|
|
This hook will be called once a client connects and the `clientVars` are being sent. Plugins can use this hook to give the client a initial configuriation, like the tracking-id of an external analytics-tool that is used on the client-side. You can also overwrite values from the original `clientVars`.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
exports.clientVars = function(hook, context, callback)
|
|
{
|
|
// tell the client which year we are in
|
|
return callback({ "currentYear": new Date().getFullYear() });
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This can be accessed on the client-side using `clientVars.currentYear`.
|
|
|
|
## getLineHTMLForExport
|
|
Called from: src/node/utils/ExportHtml.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. apool - pool object
|
|
2. attribLine - line attributes
|
|
3. text - line text
|
|
|
|
This hook will allow a plug-in developer to re-write each line when exporting to HTML.
|
|
|
|
## exportFileName
|
|
Called from src/node/handler/ExportHandler.js
|
|
|
|
Things in context:
|
|
|
|
1. padId
|
|
|
|
This hook will allow a plug-in developer to modify the file name of an exported pad. This is useful if you want to export a pad under another name and/or hide the padId under export. Note that the doctype or file extension cannot be modified for security reasons.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
exports.exportFileName = function(hook, padId, callback){
|
|
callback("newFileName"+padId);
|
|
}
|
|
```
