Use this template to bootstrap the creation of a TypeScript Jan extension. 🚀
Create Your Own Extension
To create your own extension, you can use this repository as a template! Just follow the below instructions:
- Click the Use this template button at the top of the repository
- Select Create a new repository
- Select an owner and name for your new repository
- Click Create repository
- Clone your new repository
Initial Setup
After you've cloned the repository to your local machine or codespace, you'll need to perform some initial setup steps before you can develop your extension.
Note
You'll need to have a reasonably modern version of Node.js handy. If you are using a version manager like
nodenvornvm, you can runnodenv installin the root of your repository to install the version specified inpackage.json. Otherwise, 20.x or later should work!
-
🛠️ Install the dependencies
npm install -
🏗️ Package the TypeScript for distribution
npm run bundle -
✅ Check your artifact
There will be a tgz file in your extension directory now
Update the Extension Metadata
The package.json file defines metadata about your extension, such as
extension name, main entry, description and version.
When you copy this repository, update package.json with the name, description for your extension.
Update the Extension Code
The src/ directory is the heart of your extension! This contains the
source code that will be run when your extension functions are invoked. You can replace the
contents of this directory with your own code.
There are a few things to keep in mind when writing your extension code:
-
Most Jan Extension functions are processed asynchronously. In
index.ts, you will see that the extension function will return aPromise<any>.import { events, MessageEvent, MessageRequest } from '@janhq/core' function onStart(): Promise<any> { return events.on(MessageEvent.OnMessageSent, (data: MessageRequest) => this.inference(data) ) }For more information about the Jan Extension Core module, see the documentation.
So, what are you waiting for? Go ahead and start customizing your extension!
