custom plugin - increment in reputations

[Vijay-Kumavat]

Hi

I am trying to create plugin for after each reply increment in in the reputation point of topic Author.

I tried something in library.js file. (Two more files i have created package.json and plugin.js)

Could you please help me to correct out.

'use strict';
 
var Topics = require.main.require('./src/topics');
var User = require.main.require('./src/user');
var meta = require.main.require('./src/meta');
 
var reputationPoints = 1; // Number of reputation points to award per reply
 
var plugin = {};
 
plugin.postReply = async function (payload) {
  var tid = payload.topic.tid;
  var topic = await Topics.getTopicFields(tid, ['uid']);
 
  await User.incrementUserReputationBy(topic.uid, reputationPoints); // Increase reputation points by the specified amount
};
 
module.exports = plugin;

@Vijay-Kumavat-0 are you attempting to modify or extend nodebb-plugin-rewards-essential?

[Vijay-Kumavat]

Yes, I saw this plugin,

But i tried to create new rather than customize nodebb-plugin-rewards-essential. Because it is bit confusing me.

Am i on the right track?

@Vijay-Kumavat-0 I think you’d be better off customising the plugin above to be honest. It seems like you’d be reinventing the wheel otherwise.

I’d modify

/nodebb/node_modules/nodebb-rewards-essentials/lib/conditions.js
/nodebb/node_modules/nodebb-rewards-essentials/lib/rewards.js

These seem to be the two files that control what is in the dropdown lists.
