The **sprinkle** plugin provides [the sprinkle macro](/reference/macros/sprinkle/):

<Example part="plugin_sprinkle" caption="An example of the sprinkle macro" design={false} />

```js
let { Point, points, macro } = part.shorthand();

points.a = new Point(10, 10);
points.b = new Point(20, 15);
points.c = new Point(30, 10);
points.d = new Point(40, 15);
points.e = new Point(50, 10);
points.f = new Point(60, 15);
points.g = new Point(70, 10);
points.h = new Point(80, 15);
points.i = new Point(90, 10);

macro("sprinkle", {
  snippet: "button",
  on: ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'i']
});
```

<Tip>

The sprinkle plugin is part of our [plugin-bundle](/reference/plugins/bundle)

</Tip>

## Installation

```bash
npm install @freesewing/plugin-sprinkle
```

## Usage

Like all [build-time plugins](/guides/plugins/#build-time-plugins), you load them 
by passing them to the [`freesewing.Design`](/reference/api#design) constructor:

```js
import freesewing from "@freesewing/core";
import sprinkle from "@freesewing/plugin-sprinkle";
import config from "../config";

const Pattern = new freesewing.Design(config, sprinkle);
```

Now you can use [the sprinkle macro](/reference/macros/sprinkle/) in your parts.
