Accessing engine stores from plugins?

Help
1

Attempting to build a stat assignment/character build screen using a custom plugin. I will admit I am new to typescript and pina and more advanced javascript programming in general. I’m a database guy whose done some front end javascript, so I’m out of my depth but trying to learn by the sink or swim method.

When I attempt to import a constant to execute its methods (in this case, to get and modify skill values) I get this error:

–

Is accessing the engine stores from a plugin even possible or am I barking up the wrong tree.

You shouldn’t import file paths directly from node modules, it won’t work, especially with typescript.

You can only import what’s exported by narrat. I think I’ve put stores in the exports list but not sure.

So this should work:

import { useSkills } from 'narrat';

You can also see all the exports in this folder: narrat-engine/packages/narrat/src/exports at main · liana-p/narrat-engine · GitHub

exports.ts exports the other files in there which themselves export a bunch of narrat things, that can all be imported from narrat

That did the trick, thank you! :smiley: Appreciate the instruction. Still trying to wrap my head around the data structure.

Ah! There it is! I was looking everywhere for these hooks.

Thanks again! And thanks for making this engine, its really cool!
