Methods


boot()

This method is called when the Scene boots. It is only ever called once.

By this point the plugin properties scene and systems will have already been set.

In here you can listen for Scene events and set-up whatever you need for this plugin to run. Here are the Scene events you can listen to:

  • start
  • ready
  • preupdate
  • update
  • postupdate
  • resize
  • pause
  • resume
  • sleep
  • wake
  • transitioninit
  • transitionstart
  • transitioncomplete
  • transitionout
  • shutdown
  • destroy

At the very least you should offer a destroy handler for when the Scene closes down, i.e:

var eventEmitter = this.systems.events;
eventEmitter.once('destroy', this.sceneDestroy, this);

destroy()

Game instance has been destroyed.

You must release everything in here, all references, all objects, free it all up.

Overrides:
Source: src/plugins/ScenePlugin.js (Line 104)

init( [data])

The PluginManager calls this method on a Global Plugin when the plugin is first instantiated. It will never be called again on this instance. In here you can set-up whatever you need for this plugin to run. If a plugin is set to automatically start then BasePlugin.start will be called immediately after this. On a Scene Plugin, this method is never called. Use Phaser.Plugins.ScenePlugin#boot instead.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
data any <optional>
<nullable>

A value specified by the user, if any, from the data property of the plugin's configuration object (if started at game boot) or passed in the PluginManager's install method (if started manually).

start()

The PluginManager calls this method on a Global Plugin when the plugin is started. If a plugin is stopped, and then started again, this will get called again. Typically called immediately after BasePlugin.init. On a Scene Plugin, this method is never called.

Since: 3.8.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/plugins/BasePlugin.js (Line 65)

stop()

The PluginManager calls this method on a Global Plugin when the plugin is stopped. The game code has requested that your plugin stop doing whatever it does. It is now considered as 'inactive' by the PluginManager. Handle that process here (i.e. stop listening for events, etc) If the plugin is started again then BasePlugin.start will be called again. On a Scene Plugin, this method is never called.
