We created a set of utilities to make it easier to create and add functionality to plugins.
Feel free to check all the utilities here: `talk/plugin-api`.
## Actions
#### Admin
* `viewUserDetail`
#### Auth
* `setAuthToken`
* `handleSuccessfulLogin`
* `logout`
#### Notification
* `notify`
#### Stream
* `setSort`
* `showSignInDialog``
### Import
```
import {notify} 'plugin-api/beta/actions';
```
### Usage
```js
// Trigger a notification
notify('success', t('suspenduser.notify_suspend_until', username, timeago(until))
// mapDispatchToProps
const mapDispatchToProps = dispatch => ({
...bindActionCreators(
{
notify,
},
dispatch
),
});
```
## Components
* `Slot`
You probably wont need to use the `<Slot/>` component in your plugin. But theres a chance you might want to add a Slot so another plugin gets injected in your plugin.
### Props
* `fill ` : <String | Array> Name of the slot
* `defaultComponent` : <Element | Array> The default component if no plugin component is provided to the Slot
* `size` : <Number | Array> - How many components this Slot should show - Slot size or an Array of slot size
* `passthrough`: <Object> - The properties that you want to pass to the Slot, therefore to the plugins.
* `className` : <String> - Slots class name
### Import
```
import {Slot} 'plugin-api/beta/components';
```
### Usage
```js
const slotPassthrough = {
clearHeightCache,
root,
asset,
comment,
};
<Slot
fill="adminCommentContent"
className={className}
defaultComponent={CommentFormatter}
size={1}
passthrough={slotPassthrough}
/>
```
* `IfSlotIsEmpty`
### Import
```
import {IfSlotIsEmpty} 'plugin-api/beta/components';
```
### Usage
```js
<IfSlotIsEmpty
slot="adminCommentContent"
passthrough={slotPassthrough}
/>
```
* `IfSlotIsNotEmpty`
### Import
```
import {IfSlotIsNotEmpty} 'plugin-api/beta/components';
```
### Usage
```js
<IfSlotIsNotEmpty
slot="adminCommentContent"
passthrough={slotPassthrough}
/>
```
* `ClickOutside`
This utility handle click events outside the component.
### Props
* `onClickOutside` : Takes handler function
#### Import
```js
import { ClickOutside } from 'plugin-api/beta/client/components';
```
#### Usage
```js
<ClickOutside onClickOutside={this.handleClickOutside}>
// Your component
</ClickOutside>
```
* `CommentAuthorName`
* `CommentTimestamp`
* `CommentDetail`
* `CommentContent`
* `ConfigureCard`
* `StreamConfiguration`

*`withGraphQLExtension`*
This HOC allows components to register GraphQLExtensions for the framework. IMPORTANT: The extensions are only picked up when the component is used in a slot.
### Import

import { withGraphQLExtension } from 'plugin-api/beta/hoc';
```

```js
withGraphQLExtension({

})
},
fragments: {...},
query: {...},
})(MyComponent);
```
And then update your `my-plugin/client/index.js`
```js
export default {
mySlot: [MyComponent],
}
```
