v1.26.6
Feature
Introduces plugin system for extending platform functionality with custom behavior
Full changelog
Storyden now includes a powerful plugin system that allows you to extend and customise your community platform. Plugins are just regular programs that communicate with Storyden over RPC, allowing you to add custom behaviour without modifying the core codebase.
Full documentation and examples are available on the Storyden documentation.
Plugins can be managed in the Plugins admin settings tab, and are described using a simple YAML/JSON manifest:
Plugins may declare configuration fields for Storyden operators to configure your plugin:
Plugins also can just be run as normal apps elsewhere, as long as they can access the RPC endpoint, they use a simple bearer token authentication method:
This is just the first iteration of plugins, there are big plans for deep integration tools and more complex examples coming soon!
