About Plugins-ix

The goal of this project is to facilitate a plug-n-play architectural style with python i.e have a function in a file, load it and execute it. Plugins-ix is fully open-source and feel free to change distribute at will ... giving credit wont hurt ;-)

Easy Installation

    pip install git+https://github.com/lnyemba/plugins-ix

The Plugins-ix is using python libraries (no dependencies other than typer) and is made of 3 components :

  1. Loader

This class loads files from disk, loads the functions and applies provides a means to access the functions

  1. Registry

This class provides functions to manage a location on disk that serves as registry. Calling code can use this to manage plug-n-play functions on disk.

The registry aggregates a load and allow quick access to a given function

functions are referenced here in the following format function@file e.g: in the file demo.py, the function foo will be referenced as foo@demo

#
# This function will be referenced as copyright@demo

def copyright():
    return {"copyright":"2024 - 2025, Steve Nyemba", "license":"MIT"}
  1. CLI: plugin-ix

The command-line interpreter plugin-ix helps manage plugins in a given location (considered the registry). It is a great example for how we use registry
