# Figma Video Cover

[![Actions Status](https://github.com/aarongarciah/figma-video-cover/workflows/CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/aarongarciah/figma-video-cover/actions)

Figma plugin to get the cover image of a YouTube or Vimeo video from its url.

## How it works?

It opens a **Figma** panel and you insert the YouTube or Vimeo url. If one or more layers are selected, a fill with the video cover image will be added to all of them. If no layer is selected, a new layer will be created with the video cover fill added.

## Development

To develop a Figma plugin you need to install the desktop app. Learn more in the [Figma Plugin docs](https://www.figma.com/plugin-docs/setup/).

Available commands:

- `npm run dev`: starts the watcher for changes. Modify the files under the `src` folder and the code will be compiled automatically. Then, go to the Figma app and run your development plugin.

- `npm run build`: generates the production build in the `dist` folder. Before generating the build, it checks the TypeScript code for linting errors.

- `npm run test`: simple test that ensures that the `ui.html` and `plugin.js` files have been generated in the `dist` folder.

- `npm run lint`: lint TypeScript code.

- `npm run lint:fix`: lint and apply automatic fixes to TypeScript code. This script runs before `build`.
