The List plugin can be used everywhere a list of plugins is required. It takes a list of plugins + configurations for every placement it's placed in and loads them.
placements/set
Specifies the set-placements for the list plugin, e.g. "presetstorage precommit"
placements/get
Specifies the get-placements for the list plugin.
placements/error
Specifies the error-placements for the list plugin.
config/
Common config for all plugins.
plugins/#
The name of the plugin to load.
plugins/#/handle
Internal handle of already loaded plugin. Useful when loading plugins at run-time with elektraPluginOpen()
. Do not set permanently (e.g. with kdb set
).
plugins/#/placements/set
A list of set-placements for the plugin. Same for "get" and "error"
plugins/#/config/
Plugin specific config.
The plugin exports a few useful functions:
elektraListMountPlugin
can be used to add a new plugin to the config. The placement will be queried from the plugin itself (from its infos/placements
metadata). If the plugin is added already nothing happens, otherwise pluginConfig
is used to open the plugin.
elektraListUnmountPlugin
is the opposite, it is used to remove a plugin from the config.
Finally, elektraListFindPlugin
looks for a plugin in the config, and if found returns its handle.
