Struct Plugin 

pub struct Plugin { /* private fields */ }

A loaded plugin: the library stays open, and every function pointer in its tables belongs to it.

Implementations

impl Plugin

pub unsafe fn open(path: &Path) -> Result<Self, LoadError>

Open a library, check what it speaks, and read its identity.

Safety

Loading a dynamic library runs whatever code is inside it, including its initializers. The caller must trust the file – which in practice means it came from the plugin store, not from an untrusted download.

pub fn tables(&self) -> &Tables

The tables, for everything that does not need the library handle.

pub fn name(&self) -> &str

The name the plugin reports for itself. Shorthand for self.tables().name().

pub fn family(&self) -> &str

The ecosystem family the plugin reports for itself.
