A lean framework for developing Elgato Stream Deck plugins.
streamdeck.mp4
To create a new plugin, use the following command:
npx @fnando/streamdeck create /path/to/your/plugin \
--name 'Your Plugin Name' \
--description 'Your plugin description' \
--id 'com.sample.streamdeck-your-plugin' \
--github your-github-userIf you prefer Gitlab, use --gitlab instead. There are
other options you may use, so if you want to check them out, the following
command instead:
$ npx @fnando/streamdeck create --help
streamdeck create [path]
Create a new Stream Deck extension
Positionals:
path The extension path. [string]
Options:
--version Show version number [boolean]
--help Show help [boolean]
--name The human-readable name of the extension.
[string] [required]
--id A reversed-DNS format that identifies the extension.
[string] [required]
--author The author name. [default: ""]
--email The author email. [default: ""]
--url The extension url. [default: ""]
--description The extension description.
[default: "Your new Stream Deck plugin"]
--github Your Github user. When present, an origin pointing to
Github will be added. [default: ""]
--gitlab Your Gitlab user. When present, an origin pointing to
Gitlab will be added. [default: ""]
--install Install dependencies using npm. [default: true]$ streamdeck -h
Usage: streamdeck <command> [options]
Commands:
streamdeck bundle Build files under `build` directory. While
developing, use `--dev` to generate the
files that can be linked to Stream Deck's
plugins directory. It'll generate the
`.streamDeckPlugin` otherwise.
streamdeck release Release a new version of the plugin. This
command will export a new bundle, make a
new commit, tag it with the provided
version, alter CHANGELOG.md, and push to
your Git's repo origin source.
streamdeck create [path] Create a new Stream Deck extension
streamdeck images Create file with embedded images
streamdeck link Link the dist directory to Stream Deck's
plugin directory.
streamdeck unlink Remove the Stream Deck directory's link.
streamdeck docs Open Elgato's docs.
streamdeck styleguide Show Elgato's style guide
streamdeck debug [action] Manage debugging mode.
Options:

- First, you need to enable the
debugging mode.
This can be done by running
streamdeck debug enable. - Symlink the plugin directory into Stream Deck's plugins directory by running
streamdeck link. - To open the debugger page, you'll need a Chrome-based browser (Google Chrome,
Brave, Microsoft Edge, Opera, etc). Use
streamdeck debugto openhttp://127.0.0.1:23654/on your browser automatically. - It's recommended that you use watchman
to automatically export files while developing your plugin. Make sure it's
installed and then run
watchman-make -p 'src/**/*' '*.json' --run 'streamdeck bundle --dev'to watch for changes and create the bundle automatically. Notice that some changes will also require that you restart the Stream Deck app.
Once your plugin is done, run streamdeck release --version [version]. This
command will update CHANGELOG.md, change src/streamdeck.json, generate the
releases/*.streamDeckPlugin, make a Git commit, tag this commit, and push to
your preferred Git hosting service (Github or Gitlab).
