Summary: This prefixes APIs of `flipper-plugin`, that are used by Flipper, but should not be used by plugins directly, with `_`. Also added tests to make sure we are always intentional when extending the exposed APIs Reviewed By: passy Differential Revision: D24991700 fbshipit-source-id: ed3700efa188fca7f5a14d5c68250598cf011e42
flipper-plugin
flipper-plugin is the dependency used by all modern Flipper plugins (project "Tommy").
For background: https://fb.quip.com/YHOGAnaPqAVJ
flipper-plugin is to be used as dev and peer dependency of all Flipper plugins. It provides:
- (TODO) Standard API's to interact with Flipper, such as the client connection.
- (TODO) Standard components to organize the UI
- (TODO) Testing utilities
API's provided by flipper-plugin are documented at fbflipper.com (TODO).
There should normally be no need to install flipper-plugin as dependency.
Rather, plugins should be scaffolded using npx flipper-pkg init (TODO) as documented here
