Usage

const clerk = require('pluginclerk').create({
	// Required: The keyword that must be specified inside the plugin's package.json:keywords property
	keyword: 'docpad-plugin',

	// Optional: A prefix that the name of the plugin must be prefixed by to be valid
	// Defaults to nothing
	prefix: 'docpad-plugin-',

	// Optional: A function used for logging receives the arguments (logLevel, ...message)
	// Defaults to nothing
	log: console.log,

	// Optional: The amount of milliseconds until we have to query the npm database again
	// Defaults to one day
	cacheDuration: null,

	// Optional: The URL of the npm registry's byKeyword view that we should use for fetching the plugins
	// Defaults to http://skimdb.npmjs.com/registry/_design/app/_view/byKeyword
	registryKeywordUrl: null
})

// Fetch the latest version of a particular plugin
// Note the `installPeers` result,
//   as `docpad-plugin-eco` has the peerDependency `docpad`, and no dependencies where supplied, it should be installed
clerk.fetchPlugin({name: 'docpad-plugin-eco'}, function (err, result) {
	/* result will be an object like {
		success: true,
		message: 'Successfully fetched the latest and compatible version of the plugin docpad-plugin-eco',
		skippedVersions: {},
		latestVersion: '2.1.0',
		installVersion: '2.1.0',
		installPeers: [ 'docpad' ]
	} */
})

// Fetch the latest version of a particular plugin that is compatible with the specified dependencies
// Note the `installPeers` result,
//   as `docpad-plugin-eco` has the peerDependency `docpad`, and we supplied it, there is no need to install it
clerk.fetchPlugin({name: 'docpad-plugin-eco', dependencies: {docpad: '6.78.0'}}, function (err, result) {
	/* result will be an object like {
		success: true,
		message: 'Successfully fetched the latest and compatible version of the plugin docpad-plugin-eco',
		skippedVersions: {},
		latestVersion: '2.1.0',
		installVersion: '2.1.0',
		installPeers: [ ]
	} */
})

// Fetch the latest version of a particular plugin that is compatible with the specified dependencies
// Note the `installVersion` and `skippedVersions` results,
//   a few plugin versions where skipped because they required a `docpad` version range that our supplied `docpad` version didn't fulfill
// Note the `installPeers` result
//   as `docpad-plugin-eco` has the peerDependency `docpad`, and we supplied it, there is no need to install it
clerk.fetchPlugin({name: 'docpad-plugin-eco', dependencies: {docpad: '5.0.0'}}, function (err, result) {
	/* result will be an object like {
		success: true,
		message: 'Successfully fetched an older and compatible version of the plugin docpad-plugin-eco',
		skippedVersions: {
			'2.1.0': { docpad: '^6.59.0' }
			'2.0.0': { docpad: '^6.53.0' }
		},
		latestVersion: '2.1.0',
		installVersion: '1.0.0',
		installPeers: [] }
	} */
})

// You can also fetch all plugins with some basic information
clerk.fetchPlugins({}, function (err, result) {
	/* result will be an object like {
		success: true,
		message: 'Successfully fetched the plugins',
		plugins: {
			'docpad-plugin-eco': {
				'description': '...',
				'homepage': '...',
				'version': '2.1.0'
			}
		}
	} */
})

// You can also fetch all plugins with their compatibility information
clerk.fetchPlugins({dependencies: {docpad: '5.0.0'}}, function (err, result) {
	/* result will be an object like {
		success: true,
		message: 'Successfully fetched the plugins',
		plugins: {
			'docpad-plugin-eco': {
				'description': '...',
				'homepage': '...',
				'version': '1.0.0',
				'compatibility': {}  // result of fetchPlugin
			}
		}
	} */
