Creating Your Own Plugins

babicli is designed to make plugin creation extremely simple.

Option 1: Auto-Generate a Plugin (Recommended)

babicli mgenerate myplugin

Creates:

babicli/plugins/myplugin.py

With boilerplate:

defrun(): print("Plugin myplugin loaded successfully!")

Run it:

babicli myplugin

Option 2: Manual Creation

Create a file:

babicli/plugins/hello.py

Add:

defrun(): print("Hello from babicli!")

Run it:

babicli hello

Troubleshooting

babicli: command not found

Try reinstalling:

pip install --force-reinstall babicli

Or run directly:

python -m babicli help

Plugin not detected

Check the following:

  • Plugin file is in: babicli/plugins/
  • Filename is lowercase
  • Contains a run() function
  • __init__.py exists inside the plugins folder

Ideas for Future Plugins

  • memwatch — detect RAM leaks
  • powercheck — Raspberry Pi undervoltage monitor
  • sdhealth — SD card corruption detector
  • netdoctor — deep network diagnostics
  • logguard — detect rapidly growing log files
  • sshwatch — detect SSH brute-force attempts
  • zombies — zombie process detector
