Vite Plugin Elm: A Plugin That Enables You to Compile an Elm Module.

vite-plugin-elm 

A plugin enables you to compile an Elm application/document/element on your Vite project. Hot module replacement works roughly in development.

import { Elm } from './MyApplication.elm'

Elm.MyApplication.init()

Setup

npm i -D vite-plugin-elm

Update vite.config.(js|ts)

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import elmPlugin from 'vite-plugin-elm'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [elmPlugin()]
})

Then you can import .elm file like:

import { Elm } from './Hello.elm'

then

// Mount "Hello" Browser.{element,document} on #root
Elm.Hello.init({
  node: document.getElementById('root'),
  flags: "Initial Message"
})

See /example dir to play with an actual Vite project. And this working website may help you to learn how to use.

Plugin Options

debug (Default: process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production')

By giving a boolean, can control debug mode of Elm (means toggle Elm Debugger)

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import elmPlugin from 'vite-plugin-elm'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [elmPlugin({ debug: false })]
})

When it's false, disables debug mode in both development and production. Conversely, enables debug mode even in production by true. When production build gets debug mode, Elm's compile optimization doesn't happen.

optimize (Default: !debug && process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production')

By giving a boolean, can control build optimization, useful to use Debug elm functions

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import elmPlugin from 'vite-plugin-elm'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [elmPlugin({ debug: false, optimize: false })]
})

When true, optimize build and forbid usage of Debug elm functions. When specify optimize attribute, had to tell if need to debug or not. It's not why you want to make debug traces you want to see all actions.

Static Assets Handling

This plugin supports importing assets by giving a particular tag [VITE_PLUGIN_ELM_ASSET:<path to asset>] to leverage Vite's asset handling. When Elm code has a string, this plugin replaces it with an imported asset. That string should be just a string without any concatenation.

Html.img [ Html.Attributes.src "[VITE_PLUGIN_ELM_ASSET:/assets/logo.jpg]" ] []

Helper package

By using a Elm package elm-vite-plugin-helper, you can shorten such the tagging:

elm install hmsk/elm-vite-plugin-helper

import VitePluginHelper

Html.img [ Html.Attributes.src <| VitePluginHelper.asset "/assets/logo.png?inline" ] []

Combine multiple main files (Experimental from 2.7.0-beta.1)

By passing importing path via with URL-ish parameter(s), the plugin compiles multiple main files in a single compilation process. That generates a single Elm export which has multiple properties for each given main files. This way reduces bundle size comparing to a total size of importing each file separately since common modules/Elm core codes are not repeated.

// `Elm.App` and `Elm.Another`, both can work as like importing individually.
import { Elm } from './App.elm?with=./Another.elm'

Elm.App.init({
  node: document.getElementById('rootForApp'),
})
Elm.Another.init({
  node: document.getElementById('rootForAnother'),
})

For 3+ main files:

import { Elm } from './App.elm?with=./Another.elm&./YetAnother.elm'

How To Customize WordPress Plugins? (4 Easy Ways To Do)

WordPress needs no introduction. It has been in the world for quite a long time. And up till now, it has given a tough fight to leading web development technology. The main reason behind its remarkable success is, it is highly customizable and also SEO-friendly. Other benefits include open-source technology, security, user-friendliness, and the thousands of free plugins it offers.

Talking of WordPress plugins, are a piece of software that enables you to add more features to the website. They are easy to integrate into your website and don’t hamper the performance of the site. WordPress, as a leading technology, has to offer many out-of-the-box plugins.

However, not always the WordPress would be able to meet your all needs. Hence you have to customize the WordPress plugin to provide you the functionality you wished. WordPress Plugins are easy to install and customize. You don’t have to build the solution from scratch and that’s one of the reasons why small and medium-sized businesses love it. It doesn’t need a hefty investment or the hiring of an in-house development team. You can use the core functionality of the plugin and expand it as your like.

In this blog, we would be talking in-depth about plugins and how to customize WordPress plugins to improve the functionality of your web applications.

What Is The Working Of The WordPress Plugins?

Developing your own plugin requires you to have some knowledge of the way they work. It ensures the better functioning of the customized plugins and avoids any mistakes that can hamper the experience on your site.

1. Hooks

Plugins operate primarily using hooks. As a hook attaches you to something, the same way a feature or functionality is hooked to your website. The piece of code interacts with the other components present on the website. There are two types of hooks: a. Action and b. Filter.

A. Action

If you want something to happen at a particular time, you need to use a WordPress “action” hook. With actions, you can add, change and improve the functionality of your plugin. It allows you to attach a new action that can be triggered by your users on the website.

There are several predefined actions available on WordPress, custom WordPress plugin development also allows you to develop your own action. This way you can make your plugin function as your want. It also allows you to set values for which the hook function. The add_ action function will then connect that function to a specific action.

B. Filters

They are the type of hooks that are accepted to a single variable or a series of variables. It sends them back after they have modified it. It allows you to change the content displayed to the user.

You can add the filter on your website with the apply_filter function, then you can define the filter under the function. To add a filter hook on the website, you have to add the $tag (the filter name) and $value (the filtered value or variable), this allows the hook to work. Also, you can add extra function values under $var.

Once you have made your filter, you can execute it with the add_filter function. This will activate your filter and would work when a specific function is triggered. You can also manipulate the variable and return it.

2. Shortcodes

Shortcodes are a good way to create and display the custom functionality of your website to visitors. They are client-side bits of code. They can be placed in the posts and pages like in the menu and widgets, etc.

There are many plugins that use shortcodes. By creating your very own shortcode, you too can customize the WordPress plugin. You can create your own shortcode with the add_shortcode function. The name of the shortcode that you use would be the first variable and the second variable would be the output of it when it is triggered. The output can be – attributes, content, and name.

3. Widgets

Other than the hooks and shortcodes, you can use the widgets to add functionality to the site. WordPress Widgets are a good way to create a widget by extending the WP_Widget class. They render a user-friendly experience, as they have an object-oriented design approach and the functions and values are stored in a single entity.

How To Customize WordPress Plugins?

There are various methods to customize the WordPress plugins. Depending on your need, and the degree of customization you wish to make in the plugin, choose the right option for you. Also, don’t forget to keep in mind that it requires a little bit of technical knowledge too. So find an expert WordPress plugin development company in case you lack the knowledge to do it by yourself.

1. Hire A Plugin Developer3

One of the best ways to customize a WordPress plugin is by hiring a plugin developer. There are many plugin developers listed in the WordPress directory. You can contact them and collaborate with world-class WordPress developers. It is quite easy to find a WordPress plugin developer.

Since it is not much work and doesn’t pay well or for the long term a lot of developers would be unwilling to collaborate but, you will eventually find people.

2. Creating A Supporting Plugin

If you are looking for added functionality in an already existing plugin go for this option. It is a cheap way to meet your needs and creating a supporting plugin takes very little time as it has very limited needs. Furthermore, you can extend a plugin to a current feature set without altering its base code.

However, to do so, you have to hire a WordPress developer as it also requires some technical knowledge.

3. Use Custom Hooks

Use the WordPress hooks to integrate some other feature into an existing plugin. You can add an action or a filter as per your need and improve the functionality of the website.

If the plugin you want to customize has the hook, you don’t have to do much to customize it. You can write your own plugin that works with these hooks. This way you don’t have to build a WordPress plugin right from scratch. If the hook is not present in the plugin code, you can contact a WordPress developer or write the code yourself. It may take some time, but it works.

Once the hook is added, you just have to manually patch each one upon the release of the new plugin update.

4. Override Callbacks

The last way to customize WordPress plugins is by override callbacks. You can alter the core functionality of the WordPress plugin with this method. You can completely change the way it functions with your website. It is a way to completely transform the plugin. By adding your own custom callbacks, you can create the exact functionality you desire.

We suggest you go for a web developer proficient in WordPress as this requires a good amount of technical knowledge and the working of a plugin.

Beginner's Guide to Compilation in Java

Java applications are complied to bytecode then JIT and JVM takes care of code execution. Here you will find some insights about how JIT compiler works.

I am guessing that many of you use Java as your primary language in your day-to-day work. Have you ever thought about why HotSpot is even called HotSpot or what the Tiered Compilation is and how it relates to Java? I will answer these questions and a few others through the course of this article. I will begin this by explaining a few things about compilation itself and the theory behind it.

Turning Source Code to Machine Code

In general, we can differentiate two basic ways of translating human readable code to instructions that can be understood by our computers:

Static (native, AOT) Compilation

• After code is written, a compiler will take it and produce a binary executable file. This file will contain set of machine code instructions targeted for particular CPU architecture. Of course the same binary should be able to run on CPUs with similar set of instructions but in more complex cases your binary may fail to run and may require recompiling to meet server requirements. We lose the ability to run on multiple platforms for the benefit of faster execution on a dedicated platform.

Interpretation

• Already existing source code will be run and turned into binary code line by line by the interpreter while the exact line is being executed. Thanks to this feature, the application may run on every CPU that has the correct interpreter. On the other hand, it will make the execution slower than in the case of statically compiled languages. We benefit from the ability to run on multiple platforms but lose on execution time.

As you can see both types have their advantages and disadvantages and are dedicated to specific use cases and will probably fail if not used in the correct case. You may ask – if there are only two ways does it mean that Java is an interpreted or a statically compiled language?
