Summary: Plugin System
Key: TOREE-268
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOREE-268
Project: TOREE
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Chip Senkbeil
Assignee: Chip Senkbeil
https://github.com/apache/incubator-toree/pull/8
Currently, we do not have a robust system for others to extend the Toree
kernel. The only extensible component is magics, which allow you to add unique
functions to the kernel that have access to various dependencies.
A plugin system will enable us to do the following:
# Enable users to provide code that executed when the kernel is started
# Enable users to tap into Akka messages such as code execution, code
completion, and more to produce side effects
# Clean up our bootstrapping code, which has a specific ordering of dependency
creation (can be moved to separate classes)
# More easily extend dependencies available to magics (currently have trait per
dependency and a dependency map class with a method per dependency)
# Provide internal access to dynamic events like SparkListener
# Add comm initialization code (thanks to #1) without needing to send a code
execution request from the client
# Better standardize adding new interpreters (currently we have hard-coded
logic to support our four interpreters)
