Plugins

3 pages filed under Quality › plugins. A term is a word of the business with its definition, its aliases and the words it relates to.

Term	aliases	First line	Links
Contribution point	contribution, manifest key	One of the ways a plugin adds to the tool, named by a key of its manifest: readers (a reader per file format), converters (a converter), sources (a source of entities such as a contract import), inferenceMethods (a method that produces links), checks (a check with its identifier, severity, remediation and page), projections (a rendering of the model), uiComponents (a bundle a slot loads on demand), themes (a theme with components by slot) and types (a type module per folder, merged into the profile). The data around each contribution is validated by the plugin schema; the functions are called with their input and an injected context, and never read the clock or the network on their own.	62
Plugin	extension	A package that contributes to the tool through a versioned API: a reader for a file format, a converter, a source of entities such as a contract importer, an inference method, a check, a projection, a user interface component. The core reads markdown and produces JSON; everything that needs a format or a system tool is a plugin. A plugin whose system dependency is missing disables itself with a finding.	87
Preset	batteries included	The package named concordance, which depends on the core and on every official plugin and enables them all. It is what an integrator installs; the core alone is a documented, advanced case.	13
