Script
The fields of defineScript, the entry point of every script.
A script module's default export is defineScript({ … }). Write the fields in the order below: inputs and subscribe type everything after them.
import { defineScript, input } from "@tradingthings/tt-create";
export default defineScript({ name, surface, inputs, subscribe, state, on, draw, widgets, legend, onHover /* … */ });ScriptDefinition

Surface
/**
* Where a script draws. The same script code runs on each, only the
* {@link Frame} differs.
*
* - `ChartOverlay`: on the price pane, in the chart's time and price.
* - `ChartPane`: its own pane below the price pane, with its own price scale.
* Shares the time axis and crosshair.
* - `Canvas`: a free pixel surface without scales.
* - `ChartSeries`: the chart's main series, chosen as the chart type. The
* chart draws no candles: the script draws the bars on the price pane.
* Autoscale and the magnet use its `g.priceValue`s.
