melonJS Plugin Template

A starter template for creating melonJS plugins, built with esbuild and TypeScript.

Getting Started

1. Clone or fork this repository

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

3. Update package.json with your plugin name and description

4. Implement your plugin in src/index.js

Build

npm run build

The generated files will be in the dist/ directory:

• index.js — ES module bundle
• index.d.ts — TypeScript declarations

Publishing

Update the name, description, and version fields in package.json, then:

npm publish

Plugin Structure

src/
└── index.js # your plugin entry point
scripts/
└── build.ts # esbuild configuration
dist/ # generated output (gitignored)

The template extends plugin.BasePlugin from melonJS. See the plugin API docs for available hooks and methods.
