mainInstance

getPluginData

  • getPluginData(key): string

  • Retrieves the data for our own plugin, given a specific key.

    Parameters

    • key: string

      The key for which to retrieve the data.

    Returns string

    Returns the data associated with the key as a string.

    Example

    const data = shape.getPluginData('exampleKey');
    console.log(data);

setPluginData

  • setPluginData(key, value): void

  • Sets the plugin-specific data for the given key.

    Parameters

    • key: string

      The key for which to set the data.

    • value: string

      The data to set for the key.

    Returns void

    Example

    shape.setPluginData('exampleKey', 'exampleValue');

getPluginDataKeys

  • getPluginDataKeys(): string[]

  • Retrieves all the keys for the plugin-specific data.

    Returns string[]

    Returns an array of strings representing all the keys.

    Example

    const keys = shape.getPluginDataKeys();
    console.log(keys);

getSharedPluginData

  • getSharedPluginData(namespace, key): string

  • If we know the namespace of an external plugin, this is the way to get their data.

    Parameters

    • namespace: string

      The namespace for the shared data.

    • key: string
