Plugins - Boost

Plugin based architecture that supports module loading, custom types, registries, scopes, and more.

import { Registry, Pluggable } from '@boost/plugin';

export interface Renderable<T> extends Pluggable<T> {
    render(): string | Promise<string>;
}

const registry = new Registry<Renderable>('boost', 'plugin', {
    validate(plugin) {
        if (typeof plugin.render !== 'function') {
            throw new TypeError('Plugins require a `render()` method.');
        }
    },
});

const plugin = await registry.load('boost-plugin-example');
