How could I resolve plugin warning about setting "set hookData.html"

[jiangcaiyang]

My plugin uses filter:widget.render hook, and recently when I upgrade my forum, the warning shows I need to set hookData.html. Is there any documentation about this? Thanks in advance.

Here is what you need to do in your plugin.

myPlugin.renderWidget = function (data, callback) {
  //render html
  var html = render();
  data.html = html;
  callback(null, data);
};

That will get rid of the warning.

data.h

Clould you explain what to change here and why @baris?

exports.filter_widget_render_minecraft_stats = function(widget, callback)
{
    var current_time = (new Date()).getTime();

    nodebb.app.render('widgets/minecraft_stats', { html: '<div id="tablediv"></div>', time: current_time }, function(err, html)
    {   
        callback(null, html);
    });
};

I also have this in the log:

9/12 15:11:34 [453] - warn: [upgrade/appendPluginScripts] Unable to read plugin.json for plugin nodebb-widget-minecraft-essentials. Skipping.

But i have a plugin.json

That warning occurs when the plugin isn't in node_modules. If you linked the plugin in, you might try npm link nodebb-plugin-minecraft-essentials again

{   
    callback(null, html);
});

};

To fix this just change it to

exports.filter_widget_render_minecraft_stats = function(widget, callback)
{
    var current_time = (new Date()).getTime();

    nodebb.app.render('widgets/minecraft_stats', { html: '<div id="tablediv"></div>', time: current_time }, function(err, html)
    {   
        widget.html = html;
        callback(err, widget);
    });
};
