Padre::PluginManager − Padre plug−in manager
The "PluginManager" class contains logic for locating and loading Padre plug-ins, as well as providing part of the interface to plug-in writers.
"new"
The constructor returns a new "Padre::PluginManager" object, but you should normally access it via the main Padre object:
my $manager = Padre−>ide−>plugin_manager;
First argument should be a Padre object.
"parent"
Stores a reference back to the parent IDE object.
"plugin_dir"
Returns the user plug-in directory (below the Padre configuration directory). This directory was added to the @INC module search path.
"plugins"
Returns a hash (reference) of plug-in names associated with a Padre::PluginHandle.
This hash is only populated after "load_plugins()" was called.
"plugins_with_context_menu"
Returns a hash (reference) with the names of all plug-ins as keys which define a hook for the context menu.
See Padre::Plugin.
"main"
A convenience method to get to the main window.
"load_plugins"
Scans for new plug-ins in the user plug-in directory, in @INC, and in .par files in the user plug-in directory.
Loads any given module only once, i.e. does not refresh if the plug-in has changed while Padre was running.
"reload_plugins"
For all registered plug-ins, unload them if they were loaded and then reload them.
"alert_new"
The "alert_new" method is called by the main window post-initialisation and checks for new plug-ins. If any are found, it presents a message to the user.
"failed"
Returns the plug-in names (without "Padre::Plugin::" prefixed) of all plug-ins that the editor attempted to load but failed. Note that after a failed attempt, the plug-in is usually disabled in the configuration and not loaded again when the editor is restarted.
"load_plugin"
Given a plug-in name such as "Foo" (the part after "Padre::Plugin"), load the corresponding module, enable the plug-in and update the Plug-ins menu, etc.
"unload_plugin"
Given a plug-in name such as "Foo" (the part after "Padre::Plugin"), disable the plug-in, unload the corresponding module, and update the Plug-ins menu, etc.
"reload_plugin"
Reload a single plug-in whose name (without "Padre::Plugin::") is passed in as first argument.
"plugin_db"
Given a plug-in name or namespace, returns a hash reference which corresponds to the configuration section in the Padre database of that plug-in. Any modifications of that hash reference will, on normal exit, be serialized and written back to the database file.
If the plug-in name is omitted and this method is called from a plug-in namespace, the plug-in name is determine automatically.
"reload_current_plugin"
When developing a plug-in one usually edits the files belonging to the plug-in (The "Padre::Plugin::Wonder" itself or "Padre::Documents::Wonder" located in the same project as the plug-in itself.
This call and the appropriate menu option should be able to load (or reload) that plug-in.
"on_context_menu"
Called by "Padre::Wx::Editor" when a context menu is about to be displayed. The method calls the context menu hooks in all plug-ins that have one for plug-in specific manipulation of the context menu.
