Plugin

interface Plugin

Represents a runtime Motion Canvas plugin.

Properties​

name​

name: string

A unique name of the plugin.

The name should be unique across the entire ecosystem of Motion Canvas. If a plugin with the same name has already been registered, this plugin will be ignored.

If you intend to publish your plugin to npm, it is recommended to prefix this name with the name of your npm package.

Other identifiers defined by the plugin, such as a tab id, will be automatically prefixed with this name and as such don't have to be unique.
