A library intended to make creating .NET plugins/extensions using iron languages more simple.
IronPlugins can be created from a string:
dynamic plugin = StringPlugin(
@"def add(a,b):
return a+b");
Console.WriteLine(plugin.add(10,55));
//Output
//65
or from a file:
//my_plugin.py
def add(*args):
return sum(args)
// C#
dynamic plugin = FilePlugin("my_plugin.py");
Console.WriteLine(plugin.add(1,2,3,4,5));
//Output
//15
By using a PluginManager, we can monitor file-based plugins for changes, and reload them automatically.
PluginManager mgr = new PluginManager();
mgr.PluginReloaded += _pluginManager_PluginReloaded;
mgr.AddPlugin(FilePlugin("my_plugin.py"));
// Any changes made to the my_plugin.py file will be auto-reloaded, any new
// attributes added will be accessible instantly.
void _pluginManager_PluginReloaded(object sender, PluginReloadEventArgs args)
{
// This event will tell us which plugin was reloaded.
}
PluginManager also has a global context, which can be automatically accessed through any plugin being
managed using the __mgr__ attribute. This attribute can be accessed in an indexed-dictionary fashion.
We can get and set.
// my_plugin.py
app_data = __mgr__["sample_data"]
for sample in app_data:
# Do some reporting, statistics, logging, or anything else!
__mgr__["results"] = 123
