[CLOSED] v39.0.0

Getting there
I have some feedback about the new compiler:
Why do you have rollup add the call to
W.loadPlugin(...)
instead of having the plugin dev call it?Kind of the same questions for both the html and the css. They shouldn't need any special treatment now that you are using rollup. You should be able to remove both
buildPluginHtml
andbuildPluginCss
.Also why would the build system define the
meta
object?You can have a look at what I did on the published version of my plugin to use rollup (+existing plugins) without having to build a custom solution.
The only thing that seems useful to me in the new compiler is the rewrite of the imports. But I am not sure I like it either. I preferred to use
W.require(...)
before than usingimport ...
today which is not a real import.I'll work on testing/polishing my plugin for v39 now and I hope I can be ready in time.

@vicb Thanks for the feedback! The only reason was to keep it as compatible as possible with the old version, that is all. We are making things too complicated for the developers already, so we have tried to make it so they do not have to deal with too much around the build.
Feel free to make this package and take care of it, I would be more than happy if someone takes over and I do not have to worry about it.
We will remove
W
global object andW.require
as well in a favor of ESM. So do not use it. That is why the new compiler was created, so that we could prepare it for people beforehand and the codes would work properly with minimal changes. -
BTW, I have merged
v39
into master: https://github.com/windycom/windy-plugins -
Beta has been update to include a fix for autoloading the plugins.
Now:
windy.com/plugins/windy-plugin-abc
works again.You can send a querystring like this:
windy.com/plugins/windy-plugin-abc?something=123
You can then access it within the plugin with onopen function:
export const onopen = params => { console.log(params.query) }
You can also send params to another plugin that you may wish to open like this:
broadcast.emit('rqstOpen', pluginName, {query:{ something: 123}} )
Finally: params can also be sent to the dev plugin:
www.windy.com/dev?something=1234&query2=1234

I'll take a stab when I understand what is coming with "We will remove W global object and W.require as well in a favor of ESM. So do not use it" and when
