This is an example Zellij plugin in Rust. It can be used as a template to start developing your own plugins.

More about Zellij plugins: Zellij Documentation

Note: you will need to have wasm32-wasi added to rust as a target to build the plugin. This can be done with rustup target add wasm32-wasi.

You can load the ./plugin-dev-workspace.kdl file as a Zellij layout to get a terminal development environment:

Either when starting Zellij:

zellij --layout ./plugin-dev-workspace.kdl

Note that in this case there's a small bug where the plugin is opened twice, it can be remedied by closing the oldest instance or loading with the new-tab action as secified below - this will be addressed in the near future

Or from a running Zellij session:

zellij action new-tab --layout ./plugin-dev-workspace.kdl

1. Build the project: cargo build
2. Load it inside a running Zellij session: zellij action start-or-reload-plugin file:target/wasm32-wasi/debug/rust-plugin-example.wasm
3. Repeat on changes (perhaps with a watchexec or similar command to run on fs changes).
