Plugin SDK

Go module git.dev.alexdunmow.com/block/pluginsdk.

Purpose: this is the ONE plugin-facing artifact. BlockNinja CMS plugins import this module and nothing else from the internal Go tree. Plugins must NOT import the first-party core module — core exists only for code shared between first-party entities (cms, orchestrator, ninja CLI).

The contract is proto, not Go

  • abi/proto/v1/*.proto is the contract. The host↔guest wire is proto-only; a plugin in ANY language generates its own bindings from these files.
  • abi/v1/ is the Go binding of that contract (abiv1). The rest of the Go surface here — plugin/, plugin/wasmguest/**, and the guest-facing type packages — is one language binding of the SDK. A non-Go plugin implements the ABI hooks directly and never sees these Go structs.
  • The SDK ships no page chrome. A template renders only its TemplateDocument; the host composes the document envelope (doctype / <html> / <head> / <body> + bn chrome) around it. A guest expresses its envelope needs (title, meta, asset hooks) through templates.PageDocument — never by emitting head/body markup itself.

Critical Rules

  • NEVER use replace directives in go.mod — not here, not in any consumer. All module resolution goes through the Gitea module proxy. To test local changes, tag and push a version.
  • All consumers are in-house — no backwards-compatibility shims. Change the API and update consumers.
  • Regenerate Go bindings after editing any .proto: make proto.
