Hi all I'm trying to design a web based application which should allow extending it's functionality with plug-ins. The main idea is to have a core pylons application configured with the main css, a header, menu and footer and some core functionality to fill the content pane. This application should also take care of authentication and authorization. This core application should function by itself, packaged as an egg and be installable using easy_install.
When adding functionality, I would like to create separate eggs which should hook into the core application (dependent of the core egg). It could be triggered by the menu from the core application and display itself in the content pane of the core application. This will allow dynamic addition of new plug-ins/functionality to the core application. Does anyone have any examples or ideas on how this could be accomplished using Pylons? I looked into maybe defining composite application in the core development.ini referring to plug-ins but this would mean that that ini-file would have to be updated when adding/removing plug-ins and it would be smoother to let the core application dynamically detect what known plug-ins are present. Any ideas? Thanks! -sveinh --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
