Support Go 1.8 plugins
icecrime opened this issue · comments
Description
Golang is adding support for plugins: we should leverage that! This would allow projects to add non-generic operations for their particular use case (which probably version-label and others in the current tree probably should be).
What should be done?
The tool should look for plugins in a subdirectory, and dynamically load any operations it can find. The plugins would likely provide the OperationDescriptor interface.
Until Go 1.8 is mainstream, I'd love to have a Makefile rule that builds with a plugin build tag to support that feature.
