[Lichtblick] allows developers to create extensions, or custom code that is loaded and executed inside the Lichtblick application. This can be used to add custom panels. Extensions are authored in TypeScript using the @lichtblick/suite
SDK.
Extension development uses the npm
package manager to install development dependencies and run build scripts.
To install extension dependencies, run npm
from the root of the extension package.
npm install
To build and install the extension into your local Lichtblick desktop app, run:
npm run local-install
Open the Lichtblick desktop (or ctrl-R
to refresh if it is already open). Your extension is installed and available within the app.
Extensions are packaged into .foxe
files. These files contain the metadata (package.json) and the build code for the extension.
Before packaging, make sure to set name
, publisher
, version
, and description
fields in package.json. When ready to distribute the extension, run:
npm run package
This command will package the extension into a .foxe
file in the local directory.
You can publish the extension to the public registry or privately for your organization.
