Creating a plugin

Creating a plugin

Recent changes to the codebase mean that FatFreeCRM plugins can now be developed separately and installed as gems. They can be used whether FatFreeCRM is running either as an engine (see Running-as-a-Rails-Engine) or as a standard application (see Setup-Linux-or-Mac-OS or Setup-Microsoft-Windows)

Various plugins have already been updated to use the new plugin architecture. These include:

• ffcrm_merge
• ffcrm_crowd
• ffcrm_service_hooks

For now, it is worth reading through the source code to get a feel for what is required.

We plan to enhance this page with detailed plugin creation steps in soon.
