Re: [orca-list] Introdusing Simple Orca Plugin System!




Hi Storm,
Is there some guideline or tutorial on how to write plugins for Orca?
Is this somewhat close to scripting Orca itself or is it more on writing dektop based plugins which are accessible to Orca?
And yes I like many others are still awaying for new chapters in Orca scripting, 3 I believe were released on this mailing list.
Is some one working on some more?
happy hacking.

Howdy,

Chrys and I are proud to announce the immediate availability of a simple plugin system for Orca. You can now write plugins for Orca in any language you choose. Arch linux users can install the plugin system from the AUR as simpleorcapluginsystem-git.
Other distro users can clone the package by typing:
git clone https://github.com/chrys87/simple-orca-plugin-system.git
cd simple-orca-plugin-system
view the README.md file for installation instructions. Setup is very easy.
When everything is installed, restart orca. You can access the plugin manager by pressing orca+control+p. 3 plugins are included by default. The plugin manager, which itself is a plugin, as well as workspace (tells which desktop you are currently using) and clipboard (tells you what is currently in the clipboard).
The plugin system is a work in progress. We have released it now as a public beta. there may be bugs, plese let us know if you find any.
Contact information:
Chrys and I are both available on irc.netwirc.tk in channel #talkingarch
the project page is https://github.com/chrys87/simple-orca-plugin-system
I am available also on GNU Social as @storm social stormdragon tk
You may also contact me via email with questions or bugs, or whatever.
my website is https://stormdragon.tk/
If you would like to host plugins for the plugin manager to install, please let me know.
I hope everyone enjoys this as much as I do. It's been fun to write plugins for this thing :) Also, thanks Chrys for all your awesome work on this code.
Storm
