Whale Kit Sketch Plugin

Usage

Install the dependencies

npm install

Once the installation is done, you can run some commands inside the project folder:

npm run build

To watch for changes:

npm run watch

Additionally, if you wish to run the plugin every time it is built:

npm run start

Custom Configuration

Babel

To customize Babel, you have two options:

• You may create a .babelrc file in your project’s root directory. Any settings you define here will overwrite matching config-keys within skpm preset. For example, if you pass a “presets” object, it will replace & reset all Babel presets that skpm defaults to.
• If you’d like to modify or add to the existing Babel config, you must use a webpack.skpm.config.js file. Visit the Webpack section for more info.

Webpack

To customize webpack create webpack.skpm.config.js file which exports function that will change webpack’s config.

/**
 * Function that mutates original webpack config.
 * Supports asynchronous changes when promise is returned.
 *
 * @param {object} config - original webpack config.
 * @param {boolean} isPluginCommand - whether the config is for a plugin command or a resource
 **/
module.exports = function(config, isPluginCommand) {
  /** you can change config here **/
}

Debugging

To view the output of your console.log, you have a few different options:

• Use the sketch-dev-tools
• Open Console.app and look for the sketch logs
• Look at the ~/Library/Logs/com.bohemiancoding.sketch3/Plugin Output.log file

Skpm provides a convenient way to do the latter:

skpm log

The -f option causes skpm log to not stop when the end of logs is reached, but rather to wait for additional data to be appended to the input
