The API for pkg/front_end is still in flux so we want to avoid having any packages depend directly on it (other than analyzer and back-ends). This CL re-exports some of the critical pieces of front_end needed by analyzer clients so that those clients can access them via analyzer, without having to directly depend on front_end. It also updates pkg/analyzer_plugin to make use of those re-exports. R=scheglov@google.com Review-Url: https://codereview.chromium.org/2993123002 .
analyzer_plugin
A framework for building plugins for the analysis server.
Usage
Note: The plugin support is not currently available for general use.
Plugins are written in Dart and are run in the same VM as the analysis server. The analysis server runs each plugin in a separate isolate and communicates with the plugin using a plugin API. This API is similar to the API used by the analysis server to communicate with clients.
Plugins are automatically discovered and run by the analysis server.
This package contains support code to make it easier to write a plugin. There is a tutorial describing how to use the support in this package.
