| Re: [orion-dev] plugin with extension point |
Hi John,
Maybe it's obvious to everyone, but then again maybe not: normally, Orion plugins are not extensible themselves and don't have 'extension points' - this is normally done by the page itself. If you are trying to nest plugins, it would probably lead to iframes in the outer plugin's iframe. It's probably doable, and Simon's pointers should help, but it hasn't been done yet.
If you are just trying to add a new page that is extensible, or would like to add an extension point to an existing Orion page, that should be relatively straightforward.

Hi. I want to create a plugin that has extension points. I think I need to issue something like:
var service = registry.getService("chrome.event.handler");
Then I imply an API by calling stuff on the service; users of my plugin then will issue
provider.registerServiceProvider("chrome.event.handler", serviceImpl, serviceProps);
to plugin to my plugin. Hopefully serviceImpl matches the calls I make on 'service'.
Am I on the right track?
How do I get the "registry" object in my plugin?
