A simple plugin manager, it stores one plugin each of a specific type the idea is that we can only have one security provider, one connector etc.
Adds a plugin to the list of plugins, we expect a hash like:
{:type => "base",
:class => foo.new}
or like:
{:type => "base",
:class => "Foo::Bar"}
In the event that we already have a class with the given type an exception will be raised.
If the :class passed is a String then we will delay instantiation till the first time someone asks for the plugin, this is because most likely the registration gets done by inherited() hooks, at which point the plugin class is not final.
If we were to do a .new here the Class initialize method would get called and not the plugins, we there for only initialize the classes when they get requested via []

Gets a plugin by type

Removes a plugim the list

44: def self.delete(plugin)
45: @plugins.delete(plugin) if @plugins.include?(plugin)

Grep‘s over the plugin list and returns the list found
# File lib/mcollective/pluginmanager.rb, line 91
91: def self.grep(regex)
92: @plugins.grep regex
93: end
Finds out if we have a plugin with the given name
# File lib/mcollective/pluginmanager.rb, line 49
49: def self.include?(plugin)
50: @plugins.include?(plugin)
51: end
Loads a class from file by doing some simple search/replace on class names and then doing a require.
# File lib/mcollective/pluginmanager.rb, line 80
80: def self.loadclass(klass)
81: fname = klass.gsub("::", "/").downcase + ".rb"
82:
83: Log.instance.debug("Loading #{klass} from #{fname}")
84:
85: load fname
86: rescue Exception => e
87: Log.instance.error("Failed to load #{klass}: #{e}")
