# Architectural Patterns
|
|
|
|
## 1. Plugin Structure
|
|
```
|
|
plugin-name/
|
|
├── src/
|
|
│ ├── main.ts # Plugin entry point
|
|
│ ├── settings.ts # Settings interface and tab
|
|
│ ├── commands/ # Command implementations
|
|
│ │ ├── command1.ts
|
|
│ │ └── command2.ts
|
|
│ ├── modals/ # Modal components
|
|
│ │ ├── InputModal.ts
|
|
│ │ └── SuggestModal.ts
|
|
│ ├── views/ # Custom views
|
|
│ │ └── CustomView.ts
|
|
│ ├── components/ # React components (if using React)
|
|
│ │ └── MyComponent.tsx
|
|
│ ├── services/ # Business logic
|
|
│ │ ├── ApiService.ts
|
|
│ │ └── DataService.ts
|

|
|
├── tsconfig.json
|
|
└── esbuild.config.mjs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 2. Separation of Concerns
|
|
|
|
### Main Plugin Class (main.ts)
|
|
```typescript
|
|
export default class MyPlugin extends Plugin {
|
|
settings: MyPluginSettings;
|
|
private apiService: ApiService;
|
|
private dataService: DataService;
|
|
|
|
async onload() {
|
|
await this.loadSettings();
|
|
|
|
// Initialize services
|
|
this.apiService = new ApiService(this.settings);
|
|
this.dataService = new DataService(this.app);
|
|
|
|
// Register components
|
|
this.registerCommands();
|
|
this.registerViews();
|
|
this.registerEvents();
|
|
|
|
// Add settings tab
|
|
this.addSettingTab(new MySettingTab(this.app, this));
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
private registerCommands() {
|
|
this.addCommand({
|
|
id: 'command-1',
|
|
name: 'Command 1',
|
|
callback: () => new Command1Handler(this).execute()
|
|
});
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
private registerViews() {
|
|
this.registerView(
|
|
MY_VIEW_TYPE,
|
|
(leaf) => new MyCustomView(leaf)
|
|
);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
private registerEvents() {
|
|
this.registerEvent(
|
|
this.app.workspace.on('file-open', this.handleFileOpen.bind(this))
|
|
);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Service Layer Pattern
|
|
```typescript
|
|
// services/ApiService.ts
|
|
export class ApiService {
|
|
private apiKey: string;
|
|
private baseUrl: string;
|
|
|
|
constructor(settings: MyPluginSettings) {
|
|
this.apiKey = settings.apiKey;
|
|
this.baseUrl = settings.baseUrl;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
async fetchData(query: string): Promise<ApiResponse> {
|
|
const response = await fetch(`${this.baseUrl}/api`, {
|
|
headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${this.apiKey}` }
|
|
});
|
|
return await response.json();
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// services/DataService.ts
|
|
export class DataService {
|
|
private app: App;
|
|
|
|
constructor(app: App) {
|
|
this.app = app;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
async getAllNotes(): Promise<TFile[]> {
|
|
return this.app.vault.getMarkdownFiles();
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
async processNotes(notes: TFile[]): Promise<ProcessedNote[]> {
|
|
return Promise.all(notes.map(note => this.processNote(note)));
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 3. Command Pattern
|
|
```typescript
|
|
// commands/BaseCommand.ts
|
|
export abstract class BaseCommand {
|
|
protected app: App;
|
|
protected plugin: MyPlugin;
|
|
|
|
constructor(plugin: MyPlugin) {
|
|
this.app = plugin.app;
|
|
this.plugin = plugin;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
abstract execute(): Promise<void>;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// commands/ProcessNotesCommand.ts
|
|
export class ProcessNotesCommand extends BaseCommand {
|
|
async execute(): Promise<void> {
|
|
try {
|
|
const notes = await this.plugin.dataService.getAllNotes();
|
|
const processed = await this.plugin.dataService.processNotes(notes);
|
|
new Notice(`Processed ${processed.length} notes`);
|
|
} catch (error) {
|
|
console.error(error);
|
|
new Notice('Error processing notes');
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 4. State Management
|
|
```typescript
|
|
// For simple state
|
|
export class SimpleStateManager {
|
|
private state: Map<string, any> = new Map();
|
|
|
|
get<T>(key: string): T | undefined {
|
|
return this.state.get(key);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
set<T>(key: string, value: T): void {
|
|
this.state.set(key, value);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
clear(): void {
|
|
this.state.clear();
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// For complex state with events
|
|
export class EventfulStateManager extends Events {
|
|
private state: MyState;
|
|
|
|
constructor(initialState: MyState) {
|
|
super();
|
|
this.state = initialState;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
updateState(updates: Partial<MyState>): void {
|
|
this.state = { ...this.state, ...updates };
|
|
this.trigger('state-change', this.state);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
getState(): MyState {
|
|
return { ...this.state };
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 5. Backend Integration Pattern
|
|
```typescript
|
|
// For plugins that need a backend server
|
|
|
|
// services/BackendService.ts
|
|
export class BackendService {
|
|
private serverUrl: string;
|
|
private healthCheckInterval: number;
|
|
|
|
constructor(serverUrl: string) {
|
|
this.serverUrl = serverUrl;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
async checkHealth(): Promise<boolean> {
|
|
try {
|
|
const response = await fetch(`${this.serverUrl}/health`);
|
|
return response.ok;
|
|
} catch {
|
|
return false;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
async sendRequest<T>(endpoint: string, data: any): Promise<T> {
|
|
const response = await fetch(`${this.serverUrl}${endpoint}`, {
|
|
method: 'POST',
|
|
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
|
|
body: JSON.stringify(data)
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
if (!response.ok) {
|
|
throw new Error(`Backend error: ${response.statusText}`);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return await response.json();
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
startHealthCheck(callback: (healthy: boolean) => void): void {
|
|
this.healthCheckInterval = window.setInterval(async () => {
|
|
const healthy = await this.checkHealth();
|
|
callback(healthy);
|
|
}, 30000); // Check every 30s
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
stopHealthCheck(): void {
|
|
if (this.healthCheckInterval) {
|
|
window.clearInterval(this.healthCheckInterval);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 6. Data Persistence Pattern
|
|
```typescript
|
|
export class DataManager {
|
|
private app: App;
|
|
private dataFilePath: string;
|
|
|
|
constructor(app: App, dataFilePath: string) {
|
|
this.app = app;
|
|
this.dataFilePath = dataFilePath;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
async ensureDataFile(): Promise<void> {
|
|
const exists = await this.app.vault.adapter.exists(this.dataFilePath);
|
|
if (!exists) {
|
|
await this.app.vault.create(this.dataFilePath, '[]');
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
async loadData<T>(): Promise<T[]> {
|
|
await this.ensureDataFile();
|
|
const file = this.app.vault.getAbstractFileByPath(this.dataFilePath);
|
|
if (file instanceof TFile) {
|
|
const content = await this.app.vault.read(file);
|
|
return JSON.parse(content);
|
|
}
|
|
return [];
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
async saveData<T>(data: T[]): Promise<void> {
|
|
const file = this.app.vault.getAbstractFileByPath(this.dataFilePath);
|
|
if (file instanceof TFile) {
|
|
await this.app.vault.modify(file, JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|

# Design Decision Guidelines
|
|
|
|
## When to use what:
|
|
|
|
**Simple Plugin (< 500 lines)**
|
|
- Single main.ts file
|
|
- Inline command handlers
|
|
- Direct state in plugin class
|
|
|
|
**Medium Plugin (500-2000 lines)**
|
|
- Separate files for commands, modals, settings
|
|
- Service layer for API/data operations
|
|
- Organized folder structure
|
|
|
|
**Complex Plugin (> 2000 lines)**
|
|
- Full separation of concerns
|
|
- Command pattern
|
|
- Service layer
|
|
- State management
|
|
- Utils and helpers
|
|
- Consider React for complex UI
|
|
|
|
**Backend Needed When:**
|
|
- Need to run Python/other languages
|
|
- Heavy computation (ML, embeddings)
|
|
- Access to packages not available in browser
|
|
- Need persistent processes
|
|
|
|
**React Needed When:**
|
|
- Complex interactive UI
|
|
- Forms with multiple inputs
|
|
- Real-time updates
|
|
- Component reusability important
|
|
|
|
# Performance Considerations
|
|
1. Lazy load heavy dependencies
|
|
2. Debounce/throttle frequent operations
|
|
3. Use workers for heavy computation
|
|
4. Cache expensive operations
|
|
5. Minimize file system operations
|
|
6. Use virtual scrolling for long lists
|
|
|
|
# When helping with architecture:
|
|
1. Understand the plugin's purpose and complexity
|
|
2. Recommend appropriate structure
|
|
3. Identify separation of concerns issues
|
|
4. Suggest performance optimizations
|
|
5. Guide on when to use advanced patterns
