How to add external Pydevlake plugin?

[gffuentes]

Hello there - our devlake implementation uses the helm chart and we are interested in creating some plugins using Pydevlake.

The instruction on how to create and develop one are pretty thorough, however i'm not sure of what the best way to actually install the plugin into devlake, especially if its running from the helm chart.

It looks like Poetry is used to create the new plugin as a python package. Does that mean the package can be hosted separately (in a private repo) and devlake can be pointed to go get it and install? or does the package HAVE to live in python/plugins.

Would love it if i can just create the plugin in a separate repo and just point devlake to it via helm chart config.

Thanks!

@keon94 @CamilleTeruel Would like your input for this. Thanks.

+1. I came here looking for exactly this. I'm looking into implement plugins using Pydevlake and ran into the same question (not using helm though).

It should be doable by mounting the plugin dir as a sub dir of incubator-devlake/backend/python/plugins
