"kind"

string - "_G" for a value on the global table or "LibStub", "Rock", "AceLibrary" for a library of the specified type

"name"

string - name of the addon or library

func

function - function to be called when addon or library is found

Notes

Adds a handler to be called when an addon or library comes into being This should only really be called by sublibraries or addons that register tags.

	-- do something with LibMonkey now
end)

string table

:AddFontString(fs , frame , "code" [, nsList] [, kwargs])

Arguments

fs

frame - the FontString to register

frame

frame - the Frame which holds the FontString

"code"

string - the tag sequence

nsList

string - a semicolon-separated list of namespaces. Base is implied

kwargs

table - a dictionary of default kwargs for all tags in the code to receive

Notes

Adds a FontString to LibDogTag-3.0's registry, which will be updated automatically. You can add twice without removing. It will just overwrite the previous registration. You can specify any number of namespaces. "Base" is always included as a namespace. The kwargs table is optional and always goes on the end after the namespaces. You can recycle the table after registering.

Example

LibStub("LibDogTag-3.0"):AddFontString(fs, fs:GetParent(), "[Name]", "Unit", { unit = 'mouseover' })
LibStub("LibDogTag-3.0"):AddFontString(fs, fs:GetParent(), "[Tag]", "MyNamespace")
LibStub("LibDogTag-3.0"):AddFontString(fs, fs:GetParent(), "[Tag] [Name]", "MyNamespace;Unit", { value = 5, unit = 'player', }) -- two namespaces at once

		return number * number
	end,
	arg = {
		'number', 'number', '@req', -- name, types, default
	},
