This guide provides an overview of the plugin development process for the projectADocumentation plugin. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced developer, this document will help you understand the necessary steps to create and integrate plugins into the projectADocumentation framework.

Getting Started

Before you begin developing plugins, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

  • Basic knowledge of JavaScript or Python
  • Familiarity with the projectADocumentation framework
  • A local development environment set up with the necessary tools

Plugin Structure

A plugin for projectADocumentation consists of several components:

  • Main.js: The main JavaScript file that contains the plugin's logic.
  • styles.css: The CSS file that defines the plugin's visual appearance.
  • README.md: A brief description of the plugin and its features.

Developing Your Plugin

  1. Create a new directory for your plugin in the plugins folder of the projectADocumentation installation.
  2. Initialize your plugin by creating the Main.js, styles.css, and README.md files.
  3. Implement the plugin's functionality in the Main.js file.
  4. Style your plugin using the styles.css file.
  5. Document your plugin in the README.md file.

Example: Plugin for Embedding Videos

Here's a simple example of a plugin that embeds videos from a given URL.

// Main.js
const videoPlugin = (videoUrl) => {
  const videoContainer = document.createElement('div');
  videoContainer.innerHTML = `<iframe src="${videoUrl}" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>`;
  document.body.appendChild(videoContainer);
};

export default videoPlugin;

/* styles.css */
iframe {
  width: 100%;
  height: 500px;
}

# README.md

This plugin embeds videos from a given URL into the projectADocumentation framework.

## Usage

To use this plugin, simply pass the video URL as an argument to the `videoPlugin` function.

```javascript
import videoPlugin from './Main.js';

videoPlugin('https://www.example.com/video.mp4');


## Extending Your Plugin

Once you have a basic plugin, you can extend its functionality by adding new features, such as:

- **Interactivity**: Adding buttons or controls to manipulate the video.
- **Customization**: Allowing users to customize the plugin's appearance and behavior.
- **Integration**: Integrating the plugin with other projectADocumentation features.

Remember to test your plugin thoroughly before deploying it to ensure it works as expected.
