How to create categories from plugin

Dev

I am developing new community-hub plugin for discourse where any registered users can create categories for their group / community. So the plugin should create categories itself in some criteria.

Can anyone help me to do this programmatically via plugin. And I welcome contributors for my new plugin :slight_smile:

I would also be interested to know how to programmatically create Categories!
EDIT: Okay, figured it out. Put something like this in your plugin.rb

  @cat =Category.new({"user_id"=> 1 ,"name"=>"bla", "color"=>"0088CC", "text_color"=>"FFFFFF", "permissions"=>{"everyone"=>"1"},"required_tag_group_name"=>"", "topic_featured_link_allowed"=>"true", "search_priority"=>"0"})
  @cat.save
  puts @cat.errors.inspect
