A List of practices / templates to use when coding for the Hekili Addon

Auras

Aura with multiple IDs to check under the same name

• Register with the "base" ID, or normal ID.
• Apply any necessary changes to duration, max_stack or other fields (except id) using functions.
• Add a copy field, which is a list of IDs that this aura can possibly use. No logic checks needed, just list them.

Template

    my_cool_buff = {
        id = 123,
        duration = function() return 10 + ( talent.awesome_talent.enabled and 10 or 0 ) end,
        max_stack = 1,
        copy = { 123, 456 } 
        -- talent.awesome_talent changes the ID to 456
    },

Real example

    -- Talent: Dealing $196771s1 Frost damage to enemies within $196771A1 yards each second.
    -- https://wowhead.com/beta/spell=196770
    remorseless_winter = {
        id = 196770,
        duration = function() return 8 + ( talent.frozen_dominion.enabled and 2 or 0 ) + ( talent.mawsworn_menace.enabled and 2 or 0 ) end,
        tick_time = 1,
        max_stack = 1,
        copy = { 196770, 1233152 } -- talent.frozen_dominion changes the ID
    },
