/** Simple extension that adds a "File > Hello World" menu item */
define(function (require, exports, module) {
'use strict';
var CommandManager = brackets.getModule("command/CommandManager"),
Menus = brackets.getModule("command/Menus");
// Function to run when the menu item is clicked
function handleHelloWorld() {
window.alert("Hello, world!");
}
// First, register a command - a UI-less object associating an id to a handler
var MY_COMMAND_ID = "helloworld.sayhello";
CommandManager.register("Hello World", MY_COMMAND_ID, handleHelloWorld);
// Then create a menu item bound to the command
// The label of the menu item is the name we gave the command (see above)
var menu = Menus.getMenu(Menus.AppMenuBar.FILE_MENU);
menu.addMenuItem("menu-helloworld-sayhello", MY_COMMAND_ID);
// We could also add a key binding at the same time:
//menu.addMenuItem("menu-helloworld-sayhello", MY_COMMAND_ID, "Ctrl-Alt-H");
// Note: on a Mac, Brackets will automatically change "Ctrl" to "Cmd".
// For dynamic menu item labels, you can change the command name like this:
//CommandManager.get(MY_COMMAND_ID).setName("Goodbye!");
