- Check for available ZeroMQ bindings
- All data is communicated via JSON (including core-node objects which are dictionaries with a
nodePath
androotId
). There for make sure that you have a convenient way of parsing (dynamically structured) JSONs. - Add a new directory at the top, e.g. python, java.
- Write a client in zmq and ensure you can connect to a running bin/corezmq_server.js
- Once the basics is working you can use generate_api for generating the core and project API.
- Make sure
jsdoc.json
is up-to-date with the latest webgme-enginenpm run update_docs_json
- Add an entry in config.json (generate_api uses ejs templates - do consider starting off from the existing ones.)
- Add a new mapping in typeMaps for the language inside generate_api.
- Make sure
- Generate a new test plugin for the language, e.g.,
webgme new plugin JavaBindings
- Make sure there is a way to start the "plugin" from the webgme framework (
run_plugin.py
) and from the language itself (run_debug.py
). The latter makes debugging much easier. For the js portion of the plugin most of PythonBindings can be reused. - Publish the API at a suiting registry (or include instructions on how to use it from this repo).
- In the webgme-engine repo, add an option to the language config in PluginGenerator and suitable templates.
