The plugin template that php artisan pollora:make:plugin downloads: a WordPress plugin registered with Pollora, with a PSR-4 app/ directory, service providers, hooks declared with PHP attributes, Blade views and an optional Vite build. You start from a plugin that already loads, instead of wiring add_action() calls and a bootstrap file by hand.
php artisan pollora:make:plugin my-plugin
The command downloads the latest tag of this template, replaces its placeholders with your plugin's name, namespace and header, and offers to activate the plugin. With assets (--asset), it also runs npm install and npm run build; without them, the Vite files are left out.
Requirements: a Pollora project (PHP 8.4+ and WordPress 7.1+ for a new one; the framework itself runs on PHP 8.3+), and Node.js 20.19+ or 22.12+ (Vite 8) when the plugin has assets.

The main class declares its hooks with attributes, which Pollora discovers on its own:
#[Action('init', priority: 10)] public function onInit(): void { // … }
npm install # once npm run dev # Vite dev server with hot reload npm run build # production build

This repository is a template: its files carry placeholders that pollora:make:plugin substitutes, and the PHP classes in app/ are .stub files, so it does not run as is. Develop on a plugin generated under the code name set in bin/package-plugin.sh, then copy it back with ./bin/package-plugin.sh /path/to/the/plugin, which turns the names back into placeholders. php bin/tests/run.php checks the result.
