Plugin Development Quickstart

Create a custom plugin for Ever Gauzy in 10 minutes.

Prerequisites​

  • Node.js 20+
  • Gauzy development environment set up
  • Understanding of NestJS modules

Step 1: Generate Plugin Skeleton​

mkdir packages/plugins/my-awesome-plugin
cd packages/plugins/my-awesome-plugin

Create the file structure:

my-awesome-plugin/
β”œβ”€β”€ src/
β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ index.ts
β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ my-awesome-plugin.module.ts
β”‚   β”œβ”€β”€ my-awesome-plugin.service.ts
β”‚   └── my-awesome-plugin.controller.ts
β”œβ”€β”€ package.json
└── tsconfig.json

Step 2: Define the Module​

// src/my-awesome-plugin.module.ts
import { Module } from "@nestjs/common";
import { MyAwesomeService } from "./my-awesome-plugin.service";
import { MyAwesomeController } from "./my-awesome-plugin.controller";

@Module({
  controllers: [MyAwesomeController],
  providers: [MyAwesomeService],
  exports: [MyAwesomeService],
})
export class MyAwesomePluginModule {}

Step 3: Create a Service​

// src/my-awesome-plugin.service.ts
import { Injectable } from "@nestjs/common";

@Injectable()
export class MyAwesomeService {
  getHello(): string {
    return "Hello from My Awesome Plugin!";
  }
}

Step 4: Add a Controller​

// src/my-awesome-plugin.controller.ts
import { Controller, Get } from "@nestjs/common";
import { MyAwesomeService } from "./my-awesome-plugin.service";

@Controller("my-awesome")
export class MyAwesomeController {
  constructor(private readonly service: MyAwesomeService) {}

  @Get()
  hello() {
    return this.service.getHello();
  }
}

Step 5: Register the Plugin​

Add to packages/core/src/app.module.ts:

import { MyAwesomePluginModule } from "@gauzy/plugin-my-awesome";

@Module({
  imports: [
    // ... other modules
    MyAwesomePluginModule,
  ],
})
export class AppModule {}

Step 6: Test​

yarn start:api
curl http://localhost:3000/api/my-awesome
# β†’ "Hello from My Awesome Plugin!"
