Crate eov_plugin_api 

Shared plugin API for EOV.

This crate defines the traits, structs, and manifest types that both the host application and individual plugins depend on. It intentionally avoids any dependency on Slint or other UI frameworks so that plugin non-UI logic can be tested independently.

Adding a new plugin

1. Create a directory under the plugin directory (default ~/.eov/plugins/).
2. Add a plugin.toml manifest (see PluginManifest).
3. Place your .slint UI file relative to the plugin root.
4. Implement the Plugin trait and register it via the plugin registry.

Manifest format (plugin.toml)

id = "example_plugin"
name = "Example Plugin"
version = "0.1.0"
entry_ui = "ui/my_panel.slint"
entry_component = "MyPanel"

[icon]
kind = "svg"
data = "<svg>...</svg>"
