Functions to disable plugins

Each plugin in meeting.plugins object is of type DytePlugin and exposes the following functions to disable plugins.

Remove Plugin View​

This method is used for cleaning up event listeners attached to an iframe. It must be used before the iframe is removed from the DOM.

const plugins = meeting.plugins.all.toArray();

plugins.forEach(async (plugin: DytePlugin) => {
  await plugin.removePluginView();
});

Deactivate Plugins​

The deactivate() method deactivates the plugin for all users in the meeting. When you deactivate a plugin, it gets removed from the active plugins map and can only be accessed from meeting.plugins.all.

The snippet below displays all active plugins and deactivate a plugin on click.

const plugins = meeting.plugins.active.toArray();

plugins.forEach((plugin: DytePlugin) => {
  await plugin.deactivate();
});

Here is another way you can deactivate a plugin.

const plugins = meeting.plugins.active.toArray();
const plugin = plugins.find((p) => p.name === 'YouTube');

await plugin?.deactivate();
