Plugin API documentation
========================
BasePlugin
----------
.. module:: poezio.plugin
.. autoclass:: BasePlugin
:members: init, cleanup, api, core
.. method:: init(self)
Method called at the creation of the plugin.
Do not override __init__ and use this instead.
.. method:: cleanup(self)
Method called before the destruction of the plugin.
Use it to erase or save things before the plugin is disabled.
.. attribute:: core
The Poezio :py:class:`~Core` object. Use it carefully.
.. attribute:: api
The :py:class:`~PluginAPI` instance for this plugin.
Each plugin inheriting :py:class:`~BasePlugin` has an ``api`` member variable, which refers
to a :py:class:`~PluginAPI` object.
The :py:class:`~PluginAPI` object is an a interface through which the :py:class:`~BasePlugin`
(and inheritors) *should* go to interact with poezio. If it is not sufficient, then the ``core``
member can be used.

Example plugins
---------------
**Example 1:** Add a simple command that sends "Hello World!" into the conversation
.. code-block:: python
class Plugin(BasePlugin):
def init(self):
self.add_command('hello', self.command_hello, "Send 'Hello World!'")
def command_hello(self, arg):
self.core.send_message('Hello World!')
**Example 2:** Adds an event handler that sends “tg” to a groupchat when a message is received from someone named “Partauche”
.. code-block:: python
class Plugin(BasePlugin):
def init(self):
self.add_event_handler('muc_msg', self.on_groupchat_message)
def on_groupchat_message(self, message, tab):
if message['mucnick'] == "Partauche":
tab.command_say('tg')
