Plugin Lifecycle events

You can detect whether or not your plugin panel is visible with the help of UXP APIs

data-variant=warning

data-slots=text1, text2, text3

IMPORTANT

This is only applicable to plugins with a panel. You cannot detect the execution of a command plugin via these hooks. Familiarize yourself with plugin entrypoints to know the difference between a command and a panel plugin.

Also, for plugins that have multiple panels, you cannot differentiate between them, at present.

Example

              data-slots=heading, code

            

              data-repeat=2

            

              data-languages=JavaScript, JSON

            

              JavaScript
            

              const entrypoints = require("uxp").entrypoints;
entrypoints.setup({
  panels: {
    "mainPanel": {
      create(rootNode) {
        return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
          console.log('Plugin panel created');
          resolve();
        });
      },
      destroy(rootNode) {
        return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
          console.log('Destroy panel');
          resolve();
        });
      }
    }
  }
});

            

              manifest
            

              {
  /**/
  "entrypoints": [{
      "type": "panel",
      "id": "mainPanel",
      "label": "My plugin",
      "minimumSize": {
          "width": 400,
          "height": 400
      },
      "maximumSize": {
          "width": 800,
          "height": 800
      },
      "preferredDockedSize": {
          "width": 400,
          "height": 400
      },
      "preferredFloatingSize": {
          "width": 600,
          "height": 600
      }
  }]
}
