PostHog Plugin Advanced Kit: Hello World

This is an exemplary PostHog plugin. It adds property "greeting" to every event, with a configurable value (by default: "Hello world!").

Use it as a base for your own plugins!

Goodies included

• TypeScript for best reliability and development experience
• Jest for convenient testing
• Prettier and ESLint for code style and best practices – both handled by pre-commit hooks
• GitHub Actions set up to run code quality and functionality tests in pull requests, and also to publish a new npm release when the package version is incremented in main (the latter requires an automation type npm access token to be set with a repo secret NPM_TOKEN)

Want to simply get started, without the above bloat? PostHog Plugin Starter Kit should be just the right fit for you – only the essentials needed to get off the ground.

Installation

1. Open PostHog.
