Quantum plugin specific files
Quantum plugins require plugin specific behavior.
The files under the directory, lib/quantum_plugins/
, will be used
when their service is enabled.
Each plugin has lib/quantum_plugins/$Q_PLUGIN
and define the following
functions.
Plugin specific configuration variables should be in this file.
- filename:
$Q_PLUGIN
- The corresponding file name MUST be the same to plugin name
$Q_PLUGIN
. Plugin specific configuration variables should be in this file.
- The corresponding file name MUST be the same to plugin name
