Developing Discourse Plugins - Part 1 - Create a basic plugin

Documentation Developer Guides

Soon, I will start plugin development…

Question:

Is there a list of hooks where we actually can plugin?

For example, say we want to write a plugin to process the cooked data in a post before it is displayed, we would expect there to be at least one hook at the beginning and one at the end, like (for example):

  • display_post_start

  • display_post_complex

Then, our plugin would hook into the code at the hook location of our choice above.

Is there a list of these plugin hooks and what are these plugin hooks called in DiscourseWorld?

Update: Found this:

git grep "plugin-outlet" -- "*.hbs"

But there was no outlet for modifying cooked post content, that I can see.

Is there a tutorial on creating our own outlets, for example, an outlet to modify the cooked part of posts?
