Plugins

The Zopio CLI supports a powerful plugin system that allows you to extend its functionality with custom commands and features.

​
Using Plugins

Plugins are automatically loaded from the .zopio/plugins directory in your project. You can also specify additional plugin directories using the ZOPIO_PLUGINS_DIR environment variable.

​
Creating Plugins

A Zopio CLI plugin is a TypeScript module that exports a register function. This function receives the CLI instance and can register new commands or modify existing ones.

​
Basic Plugin Structure

// .zopio/plugins/my-plugin.ts
import { Command } from 'commander';
import { ZopioCLI } from 'zopio-cli';

export function register(cli: ZopioCLI) {
  const command = new Command('my-command')
    .description('My custom command')
    .option('-o, --option <value>', 'Custom option')
    .action((options) => {
      // Command implementation
      console.log('Running my custom command with options:', options);
    });

  cli.addCommand(command);
}

​
Plugin Configuration

Plugins can include a configuration file that defines metadata and dependencies: 
// .zopio/plugins/my-plugin.config.json
{
  "name": "my-plugin",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "My custom Zopio CLI plugin",
  "author": "Your Name",
  "dependencies": {
    "lodash": "^4.17.21"
  }
}

​
Example Plugins

// .zopio/plugins/deployment.ts
import { Command } from 'commander';
import { ZopioCLI } from 'zopio-cli';
import { deploy } from './deployment/utils';

export function register(cli: ZopioCLI) {
  const command = new Command('deploy')
    .description('Deploy your Zopio application')
    .option('-e, --environment <env>', 'Deployment environment', 'production')
    .option('-c, --config <path>', 'Path to deployment config')
    .action(async (options) => {
      await deploy(options);
    });

  cli.addCommand(command);
}

​
Hooks

Plugins can also register hooks to extend or modify the behavior of existing commands: 
// .zopio/plugins/hooks-example.ts
import { ZopioCLI } from 'zopio-cli';

export function register(cli: ZopioCLI) {
  // Pre-init hook
  cli.hooks.register('pre:init', async (options) => {
    console.log('Before initializing project with options:', options);
  });

  // Post-init hook
  cli.hooks.register('post:init', async (result) => {
    console.log('Project initialized successfully:', result);
  });
}

​
Available Hooks

HookDescription
pre:initBefore project initialization
post:initAfter project initialization
pre:generateBefore generating a module
post:generateAfter generating a module
pre:crudBefore generating CRUD operations
post:crudAfter generating CRUD operations
pre:jobBefore creating a job
post:jobAfter creating a job

​
Publishing Plugins

You can publish your plugins to npm to share them with the community: 
# Create a new plugin package
mkdir zopio-plugin-myfeature
cd zopio-plugin-myfeature

# Initialize package
npm init -y

# Implement your plugin
# ...

# Publish to npm
npm publish
Users can then install your plugin globally or locally: 
npm install -g zopio-plugin-myfeature
# or
npm install --save-dev zopio-plugin-myfeature
