Overview

Package goxplugin is for registering plugins to be executed by the protoc-gen-gox program. The protoc-gen-gox program will try to first load programs as a Go plugin. If it succeeds, any plugins that are registered (via the Register function in this package) will be run. If loading the program as a Go plugin fails (e.g. it is a normal executable, not a plugin), it will be executed as a normal protoc plugin.

Functions

func GetAll

func GetAll() map[string]plugins.Plugin

GetAll gets a map of all registered plugins, keyed by name.

func Register

func Register(name string, plugin plugins.Plugin)

Register registers a plugin with the given name. Programs compiled as a Go plugin should call this method in an init() function so that, when loaded, their protoc plugin logic can be included in a protoc invocation of the protoc-gen-gox plugin.
