Init

The plugin development environment is divided into two types, the development environment and the production environment. Because of the different environments, the initialization methods are also different:

• In the development environment, you need to provide the configuration file required by the plugin, which is used to initialize the plugin and obtain the data required by the plugin.

• In the production environment, you need to install the plugin, then the plugin can directly read the data of the base in the current browser to initialize the plugin.

Initialize the plugin

Development environment

Initialize the plugin in the development environment

import DTable from 'dtable-sdk';

const dtable = new DTable();
const settings = {
  "server": "https://cloud.seatable.cn",
  "APIToken": "50c17897ae8b1c7c428d459fc2c379a9bc3806cc",
}
await dtable.init(config);

Production environment

Initialize the plugin in the production environment

import DTable from 'dtable-sdk';

const dtable = new Dtable();
const dtableStore = window.app.dtableStore; // Get initialization data from the production environment
await dtable.initBrowser(dtableStore);

Monitoring event changes

Subscribe events

Event type	description	use
dtable-connect	Indicates that a link has been established with the server, and the data loading is complete	Update state and UI display
local-dtable-changed	Indicates that some operations have been performed locally, and the data has changed	Update state and UI display
remote-dtable-changed	Indicates that some operations sent by the server have been performed locally, and the data has changed	Update state and UI display

import DTable from 'dtable-sdk';

const dtable = new Dtable();
dtable.subscribe('dtable-connect', () => {...});
dtable.subscribe('local-dtable-changed', () => {...});
dtable.subscribe('remote-dtable-changed', () => {...});

Example

This is an initialization example in the development environment.

Since two environments need to be compatible, the initialization operations for general plugin development are as follows:

import Dtable from 'dtable-sdk';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

const propsTypes = {
  isDevelopment: PropTypes.bool
};

const settings = {
  "server": "https://cloud.seatable.cn",
  "APIToken": "50c17897ae8b1c7c428d459fc2c379a9bc3806cc",
};

class App extends React.Component {

  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      isLoading: true
    };
    this.dtable = new Dtable();
  }

  async componentDidMount() {
    const { isDevelopment } = this.props;
    if (isDevelopment) {
      await dtable.init(settings);
      await this.dtable.syncWithServer();
      this.dtable.subscribe('dtable-connect', this.resetData);
    } else {
      const dtableStore = window.app.dtableStore;
      dtable.initBrowser(dtableStore);
    }

    this.dtable.subscribe('local-dtable-changed', this.resetData);
    this.dtable.subscribe('remote-dtable-changed', this.resetData);
  }

  resetData = () => {
    // ...
    this.setState({isLoading: false});
  }

  render() {
    return (
      ...
    );
  }

}
