# Pumpkin Plugin API for C
This package provides everything needed to write a Pumpkin server plugin compiled to WebAssembly using C or C++.
## Quick start
1. Download the latest release of this package.
You'll want to download the latest version of the bindings from the [CI release](https://github.com/Pumpkin-MC/pumpkin-api-c/releases/tag/CI).
We don't have stable versions as Pumpkin and its API is still pre-release.
```bash
# Assuming the latest commit is 2428b8a. Skip this if you downloaded manually
curl -OL https://github.com/Pumpkin-MC/pumpkin-api-c/releases/download/CI/pumpkin-api-c-2428b8a.tar.xz
tar -xJvf pumpkin-api-c-2428b8a.tar.xz
# Move and/or name it somewhere/something predictable
mv pumpkin-api-c-2428b8a pumpkin-api
```
2. Create your plugin (`main.c`):
```c
#include "pumpkin_api.h"
#include <stdio.h>
pumpkin_metadata_t get_meta(void) {
static const char* authors[] = {"you"};
return (pumpkin_metadata_t) {
.name = "my-c-plugin",
.version = "0.1.0",
.authors = authors,
.authors_count = 1,
.description = "A simple C plugin for Pumpkin",
.dependencies_count = 0,
.permissions_count = 0
};
}
void on_load(plugin_own_context_t ctx) {
printf("C plugin loaded!\n");
}
REGISTER_PUMPKIN_PLUGIN(((pumpkin_plugin_t){
.get_metadata = get_meta,
.on_load = on_load
}))
```
3. Build your plugin into a WebAssembly component:
To build for Pumpkin, you'll need the `wasi-sdk`.
```bash
# Compile to Wasm using wasi-sdk
/path/to/wasi-sdk/bin/wasm32-wasip2-clang -Oz \
-Ipumpkin-api/include \
pumpkin-api/lib/libpumpkin-api.a \
main.c \
-o my_plugin.wasm \
-mexec-model=reactor
```
