This repository acts as an documentation, playground and boilerplate for your own Windy plugin.

Plugins are written in Javascript and published as npm package. This is a prerequisite for writing plugins. If you are not fully familiar with it, this repo is not for you, sorry.

Fork this repository and then clone it

git clone https://github.com/yourUsername/windy-plugins
cd windy-plugins
npm ci

Now open your browser browser at https://localhost:9999/plugin.js to accept self signed SSL certificate.

Then open your browser at www.windy.com/dev to test your plugin.

Our custom Windy Plugin Compiler does all the job for you. Just run npm start to launch it or npm run start-dev to skip beginner's prompt.

1. Make sure, that your package.json is updated, and that:
   • name, is unique name of your plugin
   • description, describes what your plugin does
   • author and repository reflects your name and where the plugin hosted is
2. Remove this README.md and put there few words about your plugin (and maybe some screenshot if you want). The text from README file will be used in our planned plugins gallery.
3. Publish your plugin as npm package by npm publish. (If you are not familiar with npm, create and account and login: https://docs.npmjs.com/creating-a-new-npm-user-account.)
4. Test your published npm package on Windy's Plugin page
5. Let us know in our community about your new achievement.
6. Once you are satisfied with your plugin, you can request permission for it to be approved. Your plugin will then be listed in the "windy.com/plugins" gallery, and you will be able to use the url query string.
7. Commit your work and pull your repository back to GitHub. Rename your repository to reflect name of your plugin.

It is strictly prohibited to use plugin to:

• Modify user's setting without his consent
• Download any of user's settings, favorites or location to your server
• Download any meteorological data from Windy to your own server or use them in any other scope than inside your plugin
• Do any action that would harm our privacy policy
