WeeChat Plugin API Reference
============================
Sébastien Helleu <flashcode@flashtux.org>
This manual documents WeeChat chat client, it is part of WeeChat.
Latest version of this document can be found on this page:
http://www.weechat.org/doc
[[introduction]]
Introduction
------------
WeeChat (Wee Enhanced Environment for Chat) is a free chat client, fast and
light, designed for many operating systems.
This manual documents WeeChat plugins API, used by C plugins to interact with
WeeChat core.
[[plugins_in_weechat]]
Plugins in WeeChat
------------------
A plugin is a C program which can call WeeChat functions defined in an
interface.
This C program does not need WeeChat sources to compile and can be dynamically
loaded into WeeChat with command `/plugin`.
The plugin has to be a dynamic library, for dynamic loading by operating
system.
Under GNU/Linux, the file has ".so" extension, ".dll" under Windows.
The plugin has to include "weechat-plugin.h" file (available in WeeChat source
code).
This file defines structures and types used to communicate with WeeChat.
[[macros]]
Macros
~~~~~~
The plugin must use some macros (to define some variables):
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_NAME("name")::
plugin name
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION("description")::
short description of plugin
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_VERSION("1.0")::
plugin version
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_LICENSE("GPL3")::
plugin license
[[main_functions]]
Main functions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The plugin must use two functions:
* weechat_plugin_init
* weechat_plugin_end
weechat_plugin_init
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This function is called when plugin is loaded by WeeChat.
Prototype:
[source,C]
----------------------------------------
int weechat_plugin_init (struct t_weechat_plugin *plugin,
int argc, char *argv[]);
----------------------------------------
Arguments:
* 'plugin': pointer to WeeChat plugin structure
* 'argc': number of arguments for plugin (given on command line by user)
* 'argv': arguments for plugin
Return value:
* 'WEECHAT_RC_OK' if successful (plugin will be loaded)
* 'WEECHAT_RC_ERROR' if error (plugin will NOT be loaded)
weechat_plugin_end
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This function is called when plugin is unloaded by WeeChat.
Prototype:
[source,C]
----------------------------------------
int weechat_plugin_end (struct t_weechat_plugin *plugin);
----------------------------------------
Arguments:
* 'plugin': pointer to WeeChat plugin structure
Return value:
* 'WEECHAT_RC_OK' if successful
* 'WEECHAT_RC_ERROR' if error
[[compile_plugin]]
Compile plugin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Compile does not need WeeChat sources, only file 'weechat-plugin.h' is
required.
To compile a plugin which has one file "toto.c" (under GNU/Linux):
----------------------------------------
$ gcc -fPIC -Wall -c toto.c
$ gcc -shared -fPIC -o libtoto.so toto.o
----------------------------------------
[[load_plugin]]
Load plugin
~~~~~~~~~~~
Copy file 'libtoto.so' into system plugins directory (for example
'/usr/local/lib/weechat/plugins') or into user's plugins directory (for example
'/home/xxx/.weechat/plugins').
Under WeeChat:
----------------------------------------
/plugin load toto
----------------------------------------
[[plugin_example]]
Plugin example
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Full example of plugin, which adds a command '/double': displays two times
arguments on current buffer, or execute two times a command (ok that's not
very useful, but that's just an example!):
[source,C]
----------------------------------------
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "weechat-plugin.h"
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_NAME("double");
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION("Test plugin for WeeChat");
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_AUTHOR("Sebastien Helleu <flashcode@flashtux.org>");
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_VERSION("0.1");
WEECHAT_PLUGIN_LICENSE("GPL3");
struct t_weechat_plugin *weechat_plugin = NULL;
/* callback for command "/double" */
int
command_double_cb (void *data, struct t_gui_buffer *buffer, int argc,
char **argv, char **argv_eol)
{
/* make C compiler happy */
(void) data;
(void) buffer;
(void) argv;
if (argc > 1)
{
weechat_command (NULL, argv_eol[1]);
weechat_command (NULL, argv_eol[1]);
}
return WEECHAT_RC_OK;
}
int
weechat_plugin_init (struct t_weechat_plugin *plugin,
int argc, char *argv[])
{
weechat_plugin = plugin;
weechat_hook_command ("double",
"Display two times a message "
"or execute two times a command",
"message | command",
"message: message to display two times\n"
"command: command to execute two times",
NULL,
&command_double_cb, NULL);
return WEECHAT_RC_OK;
}
int
weechat_plugin_end (struct t_weechat_plugin *plugin)
{
/* make C compiler happy */
(void) plugin;
return WEECHAT_RC_OK;
}
----------------------------------------
[[plugin_api]]
Plugin API
----------
Following chapters describe functions in API, sorted by category.
For each function, we give:
* description of function,
* C prototype,
* detail of arguments,
* return value,
* C example,
* example in Python script (syntax for other scripting languages is similar).

[[hooks]]
Hooks
~~~~~
[[hook_priority]]
[float]
Hook priority
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
_New in version 0.3.4._
In some hooks, you can set a priority. A hook with higher priority is at the
beginning of hooks list, so it will be found and executed before other hooks.
It's useful for modifiers, because execution order is important.
To set a priority, you must use this syntax, for argument where priority is
allowed: "nnn|name" where "nnn" is nonnegative integer with priority and "name"
the name for argument (priority does not appear in name, it is automatically
removed from string).
Default priority is 1000.
C example:
[source,C]
----------------------------------------
/* hook modifier with priority = 2000 */
weechat_hook_modifier ("2000|input_text_display", &modifier_cb, NULL);
----------------------------------------
Following hook types allow priority: command, command_run, signal, config,
completion, modifier, info, infolist.
weechat_hook_command
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hook a command.
Prototype:
[source,C]
----------------------------------------
struct t_hook *weechat_hook_command (const char *command,
const char *description,
const char *args,
const char *args_description,
const char *completion,
int (*callback)(void *data,
struct t_gui_buffer *buffer,
int argc,
char **argv,
char **argv_eol),
void *callback_data);
----------------------------------------
Arguments:
* 'command': command name
(priority allowed, see note about <<hook_priority,priority>>)
* 'description': description for command (displayed with `/help command`)
* 'args': arguments for command (displayed with `/help command`)
* 'args_description': description of arguments (displayed with `/help command`)
* 'completion': completion template for command: list of completions for each
argument, separated by space. Many completions are possible for one
argument, separated by "|". Many templates are possible for same command,
separated by "||".
* 'callback': function called when command is used, arguments:
** 'void *data': pointer
** 'struct t_gui_buffer *buffer': buffer where command is executed
** 'int argc': number of arguments given for command
** 'char **argv': arguments given for command
** 'char **argv_eol': arguments given for command (until end of line for each
argument)
* 'callback_data': pointer given to callback when it is called by WeeChat
Default completion codes are:
include::autogen/plugin_api/completions.txt[]
Special codes:
* '%%command': reuse completion template from command 'command'
* '%-': stop completion
* '%*': repeat last completion
Return value:
* pointer to new hook, NULL if error occured
C example:
[source,C]
----------------------------------------
int
my_command_cb (void *data, struct t_gui_buffer *buffer, int argc,
char **argv, char **argv_eol)
{
/* ... */
return WEECHAT_RC_OK;
}
/* this example is inspired by command /filter */
struct t_hook *my_command_hook =
weechat_hook_command (/* command name */
"myfilter",
/* description */
"description of myfilter",
/* args */
"[list] | [enable|disable|toggle [name]] | "
"[add name plugin.buffer tags regex] | "
"[del name|-all]",
/* args description */
"description of arguments...",
/* completion */
"list"
" || enable %(filters_names)"
" || disable %(filters_names)"
" || toggle %(filters_names)"
" || add %(filters_names) %(buffers_plugins_names)|*"
" || del %(filters_names)|-all",
/* callback */
&my_command_cb,
/* callback_data */
NULL);
----------------------------------------
For example, if command called is `/command abc def ghi`, then argv and
argv_eol contain following values:
* 'argv':
** 'argv[0]' == "abc"
** 'argv[1]' == "def"
** 'argv[2]' == "ghi"
* 'argv_eol':
** 'argv_eol[0]' == "abc def ghi"
** 'argv_eol[1]' == "def ghi"
** 'argv_eol[2]' == "ghi"
