Getting Started¶

All Moonhook plugins are written in Luau Before creating plugins for Moonhook, you should learn the Luau syntax first.

Making your first plugin¶

To make your first plugin, navigate to the Plugins within your Moonhook installation. Create a file with a .luau or .lua extension. This will be your plugin.

Before writing the code for your plugin, you should add headers. Headers for Moonhook plugins are defined like:

--!plugin
Name: Plugin Name
Description: Plugin Description
Author: Your Name
Version: v0.1.0 (or your plugin version)
--!end

After you've defined the headers, you can get to writing the code. To make options, you need to use the moonhook.Option function. Let's make a test main menu option.

moonhook.Option("Option Name", moonhook.MAIN_MENU_OPTION, function ()
    moonhook.log("Hello, world!");
    moonhook.pause();
end)

This code will create a main menu option, which will be visible when you open Moonhook.

Now, for Webhook menu options:

moonhook.Option("Send Message", moonhook.WEBHOOKS_OPTION, function (ctx)
    local hook = ctx.new(ctx.url);
    moonhook.log("Sending hello...");
    hook:send("Hello from my test plugin!");
    moonhook.log("Sent!");
    moonhook.pause();
end)

Webhook options recieve a ctx table that contains:

• ctx.url (The webhook url)
• ctx.new() (Function to create a Webhook object.)

To be able to send messages or use a webhook, you need to create a Webhook object.

Bot options recieve a ctx table that contains:

• ctx.token (The bot token)
• ctx.guild_id (The guild ID)
• ctx.new(token) (Funtion to create a Bot object.)

To be able to use the bot, you need to create a Bot object.
