    Hey there,
    we are using akelos to remake the software of http://www.overmundo.com.br/.
    One of our prequisites is an easy plugin system.
    Akelos provides that at framework level.
    We need the same kind of thing at business level (the code we are creating).

    Honnestly I haven't yet understood all the tweaks about the akelos plugin architecture.
    Can anyone on this forum infom us on this matter ?
    Since Akelos seems to be a ruby on rail like framework, woulkd reading the ror documentation help us in anyway ?

    Thank you!

    Hi schllob,

    Welcome to the Akelos forum. I'm excited you'll build up overmundo using Akelos :)

    Plugins in Akelos act on an framework level at this moment.

    I've been thinking of a convention to build/distribute application level plugins, but it does not belong to Akelos to determine how your application menu/permission/versions work.

    That said, I've tried to do this on Editam, and found some conventions for hooking up business logic functionality that can be packed and distributed within other Editam applications.

    You can see the code and documentation of the controller and view hooks

    The model hook are far from perfect.

    Is this the sort of info you where looking for?
