[jira] Commented: (NUTCH-408) Plugin development documentation
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-408?page=comments#action_12452610 ]
nutch.newbie commented on NUTCH-408:
------------------------------------
Yes, I have gone through the media style documentation and it is a good start. and there are also some very good documentation in Nutch wiki. My thinking was to complete-compile existing documentation in a coherent way so that you get the whole picture. So I would like to give it a shot at writing but I can not do this all by myself as I lack background info plus I haven't wrote any plugin myself so if any of you would like to help me I would like to do this job. Feel free to mail me directly if you are up for it. I will probably ask lot of stupid question but we will have some development documentation at least :=) what you say? anyone up for this?

> Documentation is rare! But very vital for extending current (0.9) nutch. Current docs on the wiki for 0.7 plugin development was good but it doesn't apply to 0.9 and new developers who are joining directly 0.9 find the 0.7 documentation not enough. A more practical plugin writing documentation for 0.9 is desired also exposing the plugin principals in practical terms i.e. extension points and libs etc. furthermore it would be good to provide some best practice example i.e.
> look for the lib you are planning to use if its already in lib folder and maybe that version of the external lib is good for the plugin dev rather then using another version things like that..
