I think adding two environment variables would do the trick. We don't want to depend on GConf. When GSettings are available via Python we might want to use those, but envvars are a good start imho. So:
ZEITGEIST_DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS=override the variable _zeitgeist.engine.constants.DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS ZEITGEIST_EXTRA_EXTENSIONS=extra extensions to load on top of the ones specified by _zeitgeist.engine.constants.DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS The format of these variables should just be a no-space comma separated list of module.class names line we already have in _zeitgeist.engine.constants.DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS. Fx adding the following lines to my .bashrc would enable the frobnicator- and Tracker event miner extensions: ZEITGEIST_EXTRA_EXTENSIONS=frobnicator.zg_extensions.ZGFrobicatorExtension,tracker.zg.EventMinerExtension -- Make the loading of extensions to the engine configurable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Zeitgeist Framework Team, which is subscribed to Zeitgeist Framework. Status in Zeitgeist Framework: Confirmed Bug description: right now the relevancy-provider is loaded by default. Unfortunately this extension is kind of buggy and not well tested, so in case of errors while loading this extension the whole engine would fail to run. We need a configurable plugin-system for our extensions, and for now we should per default disable loading the relevancy provider. If this provider gets more stable we should easily be able to add this extension to the default extensions which are automatically loaded on engine initialization. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~zeitgeist Post to : zeitgeist@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~zeitgeist More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
