C# (.NET) Language Module for Plugify

The C# (.NET) Language Module for Plugify facilitates the development of plugins in C# for the Plugify framework. With this module, you can seamlessly integrate C# plugins, allowing dynamic loading and management by the Plugify core.

Features

• C# (.NET) Plugin Support: Write your plugins in C# (.NET) and seamlessly integrate them with the Plugify framework.
• Automatic Exporting: Effortlessly export and import methods between plugins and the language module.
• Initialization and Cleanup: Handle plugin initialization, startup, and cleanup with dedicated module events.
• Interoperability: Communicate with plugins written in other languages through auto-generated interfaces.

Note: All C# (.NET) plugins are hosted within the single domain. This allows for seamless collaboration and interaction between C# plugins without the Plugify framework.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• .NET Runtime (.NET 8.0.3)
• Plugify Framework Installed

Installation

Option 1: Install via Plugify Plugin Manager

You can install the C++ Language Module using the Plugify plugin manager by running the following command:

plg install plugify-module-dotnet

Option 2: Manual Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/untrustedmodders/plugify-module-dotnet.git --recursive
   cd plugify-module-dotnet

2. Build the C# (.NET) language module:

   mkdir build && cd build
   cmake ..
   cmake --build .

Usage

1. Integration with Plugify

   Ensure that your C# (.NET) language module is available in the same directory as your Plugify setup.

2. Write C# Plugins

   Develop your plugins in C# using the Plugify C# API. Refer to the Plugify C# Plugin Guide for detailed instructions.

3. Build and Install Plugins

   Compile your C# plugins and place the assemblies in a directory accessible to the Plugify core.

4. Run Plugify

   Start the Plugify framework, and it will dynamically load your C# plugins.

Example

using Plugify;

namespace ExamplePlugin
{
    public class SamplePlugin : Plugin
    {
        public void OnStart()
        {
            Console.WriteLine(".NET: OnStart");
        }
    
        public void OnEnd()
        {
            Console.WriteLine(".NET: OnEnd");
        }
    }
}
