# Lens Extension API
|
|
|
|
Customize and enhance the Lens experience with the Lens Extension API.
|
|
Use the extension API to create menus or page content.
|
|
The same extension API was used to create many of Lens's core features.
|
|
To install your first extension you should goto the [extension page](lens://app/extensions) in lens.
|
|
|
|
This documentation describes:
|
|
|
|
- How to build, run, test, and publish an extension.
|
|
- How to take full advantage of the Lens Extension API.
|
|
- Where to find [guides](extensions/guides/README.md) and [code samples](https://github.com/lensapp/lens-extension-samples) to help get you started.
|
|
|
|
## What Extensions Can Do
|
|
|
|
Here are some examples of what you can achieve with the Extension API:
|
|
|
|
- Add custom components & views in the UI - Extending the Lens Workbench
|
|
|
|
For an overview of the Lens Extension API, refer to the [Common Capabilities](extensions/capabilities/common-capabilities.md) page. [Extension Guides Overview](extensions/guides/README.md) also includes a list of code samples and guides that illustrate various ways of using the Lens Extension API.
|
|
|
|
## How to Build Extensions
|
|
|
|
Here is what each section of the Lens Extension API docs can help you with:
|
|
|
|
- **Getting Started** teaches fundamental concepts for building extensions with the Hello World sample.
|
|
- **Extension Capabilities** dissects Lens's Extension API into smaller categories and points you to more detailed topics.
|
|
- **Extension Guides** includes guides and code samples that explain specific usages of Lens Extension API.
|
|
- **Testing and Publishing** includes in-depth guides on various extension development topics, such as testing and publishing extensions.
|
|
- **API Reference** contains exhaustive references for the Lens Extension API, Contribution Points, and many other topics.
|
|
|
|
## What's New
|
|
|
|
Just like Lens itself, the extension API updates on a monthly cadence, rolling out new features with every release.
|
|
|
|
Keep up with Lens and the Lens Extension API by reviewing the [release notes](https://github.com/lensapp/lens/releases).
|
|
|
|
## Important changes since Lens v4
|
|
|
|
Lens has undergone major design improvements in v5, which have resulted in several large changes to the extension API.
|
|
Workspaces are gone, and the catalog is introduced for containing clusters, as well as other items, including custom entities.
|
|
Lens has migrated from using mobx 5 to mobx 6 for internal state management, and this may have ramifications for extension implementations.
|
|
Although the API retains many components from v4, given these changes, extensions written for Lens v4 are not compatible with the Lens v5 extension API.
|
|
See the [Lens v4 to v5 extension migration notes](extensions/extension-migration.md) on getting old extensions working in Lens v5.
|
|
|
|
## Looking for Help
|
|
|
|
