    New Addon Template  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
    Version: 1.29
    by: Phuein [More]
    Gift me @phuein in-game, if you have extra crowns and appreciate my addons. (Can even ask which DLC I missed.) Thank you!

    This is not a game addon and it does nothing meaningful.

    Requirements:
    • LibAddonMenu-2.0 >= 28

    This is a template for new addons. I often use these features when making or upgrading an addon. It is intended to be a "blank slate" to work with quickly and efficiently. Easier to remove a few code blocks, than it is to write them from scratch.

    Included in this template are the following:
    • Manifest.
    • Keybinding.
    • LibAddonMenu-2.0 with all the default menu options.
    • Multiple language support.
    • Chat output, an animated announcement (center), and an alert (top-right.)
    • A slash command: "/newaddon".
    • Colors.
    • XML UI elements.
    • Notification when loaded for the first time.
    • Events handled: EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED, EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED, zo_callLater() [which uses RegisterForUpdate().]
    • Toggle savedVars per character or account-wide.

    More useful features can be added in time. I welcome all code input, improvements, and requests. I suggest opening all of the project's files together (except the external libraries,) to see how they interact; from language, to hotkeys, to menus.

    Writing addons shouldn't be about hunting for code online, but rather focusing on functionality and aesthetics.
    1.29
    - Added the AddOnVersion identifier, for other addons to match against if needed.

    1.28

    - Updated the slash commands autocomplete.

    1.26
    - Fix.

    1.25
    - Minor tweaks.

    1.23
    - Minor tweaks.

    1.2

    1.1
    - Bugfixes.
    - Separated Settings menu to its own file.
    - Changed some code format for readability.

    1.0

    Thanks for the template! It's quite helpful and has encouraged me to start poking at things.

    I just needed to change "Junkee" on line 84 to "NewAddon" and was good to go.

    Cheers.
