> Before we were adding new formats / plugins into the exec module. Eventually
> we came up to the point that exec package size is growing and adding plugin
> and format contributions is better to separate out in the different module.
> Now we have contrib module where we add such contributions. Plugins are
> pluggable, there are added automatically by means of having drill-module.conf
> file which points to the scanning packages.
> Format plugins are using the same approach, the only problem is that they are
> not added into bootstrap-storage-plugins.json. So when adding new format
> plugin, in order for it to automatically appear in Drill Web UI, developer
> has to update bootstrap file which is in the exec module.
> My suggestion we implement some functionality that would merge format config
> with the bootstrap one. For example, each plugin would have to have
> bootstrap-format.json file with the information to which plugin format should
> be added (structure the same as in bootstrap-storage-plugins.json):
> Example:
> {
> "storage":{
> dfs: {
> formats: {
> "psv" : {
> type: "msgpack",
> extensions: [ "mp" ]
> }
> }
> }
> }
> }
> Then during Drill start up such bootstrap-format.json files will be merged
> with bootstrap-storage-plugins.json.{noformat}
